We can provide a door-to-door solution from and to virtually anywhere in the world. Our global network partners and affiliates’ local knowledge and expertise ensure our clients’ freight moves efficiently and smoothly along the logistics chain.
When we handle clearing and forwarding of a consignment, Turners Shipping is the single point of contact throughout the process, offering transparency and accountability at every step.
Shipment Tracking
Our IT systems integrate with the SARS Customs system and shipping information services, allowing us to keep clients informed about the status of any consignment in the logistics chain.
With 13 offices in Southern Africa and being positioned at all major ports, you can rest assured your shipment is in good hands. Our partnership with PSA BDP expands our reach, giving us access to expertise and infrastructure in over 200 locations worldwide.
Our customs clearing and freight forwarding services provide coordination that ensures the seamless and cost-effective movement of freight at the point of origin and destination.
Full Container Load (FCL)
This is the most efficient, secure, and cost-effective solution for high volumes importers. Containers are packed at the point of origin and delivered to their destination.
Less Container Load (LCL)
Ideal for smaller volumes and top-up stock. Slightly slower than FCL shipments as freight is consolidated at the point of origin and de-consolidated at a warehouse before being delivered to the destination.
Specialised & Out-of-Gauge Cargo
Machinery and equipment that will not fit into a standard container. We offer specialised packaging and crating of oversized cargo and appropriate transport for such consignments.
Refrigerated Container (Reefer)
A specialised mode of transport for goods that are temperature sensitive and need careful handling. These containers remain connected to a power supply throughout the logistics chain.
