YOUR SOLUTION TO MARINE POLLUTION

About MarpolMarpol Services was founded in 2009 by three entrepreneurs, each of whom had numerous years of experience in the shipping, mineral oil and waste management sectors at ports including Amsterdam, Den Helder, Rotterdam and Scheveningen. This expertise allows Marpol to provide services perfectly tailored to meet the Port of Amsterdam’s needs and requirements.

However, Marpol is more than just pooled expertise and a 24-hour service. In fact, it is far more. Not only do we know the port intimately, but the port also knows us very well. This includes both dry and wet sides of port opera-tions, i.e. the terminals, warehouses and industry on the one hand andthe bunkering stations, towage services, boatmen, port authorities and customs on the other. This is a major advantage in an industry where the adage time is money can be applied very literally.

Our around-the-clock presence in the Amsterdam port also makes Marpol the ideal partner for surface water decontamination operations. With over twenty years of experience, we know the ropes and know our way around, e.g. to waterway authorities and insurance agents, etc.In a short: Marpol, your solution to marine pollution.

Ship Waste CollectionMarpol Services collects ship waste on behalf of the sea going, inland water-way and fishing sectors, as well as miscellaneous offshore companies.

Marpol provides full collection services for all types of ship waste ranging from bin liners full of waste to huge volumes of ballast water and from small-scale packaged waste to heavy fuel oil. Marpol has a comprehensive fleet of barges and various tanktrucks for optimal collection and trans-portation purposes.

Marpol only uses fully licensed waste processing companies for disposing of your collected waste. Not only is it processed in an as environmentally friendly fashion as possible, but it is also carried out at the most affordable rates. As an independent party, we guarantee that the most favourable solution will be found in each specific case. When dealing with Marpol, you will never be confronted with any surprises after the fact – our clear quotations detail exactly what is involved in advance. You will never be charged any ambiguous additional costs and weird and wonderful surcharges when doing business with Marpol.

Waste LogisticsOur extensive waste-processing network and knowledge enables us to relieve you of all your waste management issues. Marpol has eight tanktrucks and numerous smaller-scale utility vehicles.

Our tank vessels are on 24-hour standby to ship loads to various processing companies. This allows you to profit from our ready established logistics, sav-ing you money. Registration is completed in Marpol’s name, which means that we take care of the waste management process with the processing company from A to Z. This saves you not only money, but time too

If necessary, we can even perform a market scan on your behalf – free of any obligation – to see if you are currently paying market-standard rates. One way to cut your costs is to combine shipments with Marpol. Our transportation resources can be deployed to optimize your logistics processes thus cutting costs.
