OCEAN FREIGHT
Bermuda Forwarders offers more ocean services to Bermuda than anyone else. Full Containers Loads (FCL) can be arranged from almost anywhere in the world. Less than Full Container Loads (LCL) can be more challenging for other frieght handlers as, outside of North America, there are virtually no direct LCL services available directly to Bermuda.
We have set up a Network of Agents and Affiliates in North America, The United Kingdom, Europe and approximately 200 gateways around the world. LCL ocean freight is offered on a weekly basis from all of these origins. Look under "Partners" on our home page for a list of our most frequently used agents. A more complete list is also available upon request from us at Bermuda Forwarders.

SEA-AIR
Throughout most of the world we offer two speeds and two costs alternatives, air freight and ocean freight. From Hong Kong and China we offer a third speed for your convenience. This is known as "Sea-Air" and is a custom designed service arranged through Geodis Wilson Ltd. Sea-Air is exactly as it sounds: Your cargo is initially sent from the Far East by sea into Vancouver, and from there is expedited by air to Bermuda. Total transit time is usually three-four weeks. Sea-Air is faster than ocean freight and less expensive than air freight. Each shipment must be arranged individually therefore please contact us for details for each and every Sea-Air shipment:

Cargo Tracking
 Most of our agents now e-mail either a Freight Receipt Advice or a Shipping Advice at the time they handle your shipments overseas. This gives you a good idea when your shipments are due to arrive in Bermuda. Once in Bermuda our Local Inland Clearance Facility will e-mail you a Stripping Advice when your LCL cargo has been stripped from its arriving container. Please advise our LIC manager your e-mail address and state in the e-mail this is for the purpose of sending you Stripping Advices.
Please note that once stripped your cargo must be delivered or collected from the LIC within 2 working days, to avoid congestion in the new facility and storage charges of $0.50 per cubic foot per day (min $15 per day).
For air and ocean shipments from the U.S. and the U.K., we now offer Web Track so that you can track your shipments online at any time. Web Track can be reached at www.uswlg.com or www.ukwlg.com Contact us to obtain your own password and a quick lesson.
