If you are looking to charter a vessel or aircraft then nobody has a stronger portfolio than Simplycargo. Our expertise in the project market allows us to provide you with a seamless charter option which you are able to pass on to your shippers and manufacturers. we have been involved in air and sea chartering since our inception and many forwarders need assistance in providing these services. We not only provide access to large capacity vessels and aircraft but look at each charter individually and line up the relevant sized aircraft or ship to suit. Sometimes the most complex of charters rely on smaller aircraft.
Aircraft Chartering
 Through our knowledge of specialist markets we regularly charter aircraft in order that we can provide an answer to particularly complex or large worldwide movements.
Regular charters from several origin points around the world into Russia, Siberia, the arctic circle and central Africa have helped us develop our understanding of customs procedures within these regions. With dedicated staff who travel overseas to monitor the loading/unloading of these charters and aide customs clearance and delivery we fully retain control of your transport needs. The complexity of customs procedures means many freight-forwarders avoid or limit their involvement in these complex markets. Not only do we thrive in the complexity of dealing in these areas, our partners and staff on the ground allow us to discuss face-to-face with authorities in these areas to ensure our swift and professional service is carried through to door.
Charter flights require huge preperation negotiating royalty payments and landing fees as well as ensuring airports can handle the type of aircraft required for your movement. Our charter division employ staff whom are fully experienced in this area and know what and who to ask to arrange the smooth transition of charter flights from point-to-point.
Our staff have previously arranged charters from the U.K, Mainland Europe, The U.S and South America as well as Russia and the Baltics.
Ship Chartering
 Chartering vessels can be a lot more complex than aircraft charters which go specifically from airport to airport. In a large number of cases because of the complex nature of ship charters the likely destinations will be in difficult locations where there are no major ports. Understanding the demands of dealing with these complex issues surrounding one-off vessel movements is key to a successful charter. Arranging the correct vessel to carry the load as well as fit within the loading/unloading areas is key.
Vessel security has become a key issue in recent times and has a big part to play in arranging these charters. Vessel charters often form the backbone to a more complex logistical movement. An astronomical telescope being trasnported to a mountaintop is an example of the type of work Simplycargo have handled in the past where a vessel charter was used to move the goods for part of the whole surface journey.
Without a thorough understanding of vessel chartering and customs facilities at regional ports at destination it is quite easy to end up with a vessel arriving which cannot be unloaded. Simplycargo can take the strain on these movements working hand in hand with the freight-forwarder to ensure that these sort of elementary mistakes do not occur.
If you are looking for a charter forwarder with experience and a comittment to handling complex out of guage cargo then there is nobody with a better portfolio than Simplycargo.
