 Ocean Freight Services


Shipping Dedicated Capacity

One Container at a Time

When your cargo fills a container, BTX's FCL service gives you dedicated capacity across all major trade lanes — with competitive rates, flexible routing, and end-to-end management from origin stuffing to final delivery. We handle both imports and exports with full visibility and compliance support throughout. 

Economic Ocean Service

Reserving the Space You Need

BTX's LCL service consolidates your cargo with other shipments to deliver a cost-effective ocean solution without sacrificing service quality or visibility. Ideal for shipments that don't require a full container, our global consolidation network ensures reliable transit times and full tracking across all major trade lanes. 

Out of Gauge & Project Cargo

Engineered for What Won't Fit

For cargo that doesn't fit in a standard ocean container — oversized machinery, out of gauge equipment, and heavy lift shipments — BTX engineers custom solutions from the ground up, managing specialized equipment, route surveys, port coordination, and compliance from origin to destination.

Port & Rail Transportation

Executing the Last Mile

BTX's drayage services connect your containerized cargo from port to warehouse, rail ramp, or final delivery point — with established carrier relationships, port expertise, and real-time visibility to keep your supply chain moving seamlessly after the ship docks.

International Customs Brokerage

Cleared Fast, Compliant Every Time

Customs delays happen when documentation and compliance aren't handled ahead of time. BTX's licensed customs brokers work proactively on every shipment, managing the full clearance process so your freight crosses borders without costly holds or regulatory complications.

Ocean Transport Solutions

Built for Wheeled & Oversized Cargo

For vehicles, heavy machinery, and oversized equipment that can't be containerized, BTX's RoRo service provides specialized ocean transport across global trade lanes — managing booking, documentation, port coordination, and compliance to deliver your assets safely to destination.

BTX's operations team proactively monitors port conditions, carrier schedules, and cargo status to identify potential congestion points early and adjust routing and delivery coordination, keeping your shipment moving before a backup becomes a bottleneck.

What sea freight services does BTX offer?

BTX provides international ocean freight solutions including FCL, LCL, import and export coordination, specialized cargo support, and multimodal shipment planning tied to broader global supply chain needs.

What is the difference between FCL and LCL shipping?

FCL, or Full Container Load, uses an entire container for one shipment, making it ideal for larger freight volumes. LCL, or Less Than Container Load, combines multiple shipments in one container, which can be a more economical option for smaller loads.

Is sea freight more cost-effective than air freight?

In many cases, yes. Sea freight is often the more economical choice for larger, heavier, or less time-sensitive international shipments, while air freight is typically selected for urgent cargo.

Can BTX help with import and export documentation?

Yes. BTX helps coordinate the documentation and communication required to support smoother international ocean freight movement and reduce avoidable delays.

What types of cargo are best suited for ocean freight?

Ocean freight is commonly used for palletized goods, raw materials, commercial inventory, industrial equipment, oversized freight, and other shipments where cost efficiency and capacity are key priorities.
