Direct service from US for full and part boxes

IF YOU’RE looking at track record on the US – Port Elizabeth route, Direct Container Line is difficult to beat. The company operates a direct weekly seafreight groupage service from New York to Port Elizabeth, a service that was launched more than 25 years ago. “DCL’s coverage of the USA is extensive and through its network of fifteen offices can offer a pickup service from any town or city within the USA and Canada to the port of departure in New York,” says Claude Nuttall, Cape Town director of local agents United Maritime Logistics. “DCL is the only NVOCC in the US that owns and operates its own warehouses, and because we load our own groupage containers, customers are assured of a higher level of efficiency and security.” While the company originally focused only on an LCL (less than container load) option, it is now able to offer an FCL (full container load) service on the same direct sailings as the weekly consolidations.
