Maritime Cargo Services is extremely proud of
our exclusive freight management system a product of continuous and innovative
in-house development. It is a self-contained
freight management system which will enable
you to control and manage all shipments with
ease. Most on-line tracking systems require that
you enter a Bill of Lading number, container
number or booking reference – very time
consuming with limited results.
We are driven with the commitment to offer a
world-class service as standard – this applies
to our technology too. was specifically
developed for ease of use so all the information
which you require is displayed in a spreadsheet
format. All your specific information can now be
obtained in a matter of seconds.
Further benefits of using include the
‘Log Book’ feature. This not only highlights any
containers incurring demurrage but also displays
any changes that have been made during the
day, including:
• If a vessel’s ETA changes
• When a vessel arrives
• Confirmation that a container has been
booked in for delivery
• Alterations of delivery dates/times.
• Changes to the delivery destination
• Weather Warnings
Freight Management system is
automatically available straight to your desktop.
At Maritime Cargo Services we are constantly
looking to both develop and improve our
services and welcome any feedback or
comments which you may have.
At Maritime Cargo Services (MCS) we know
the importance of getting your goods through
customs promptly and efficiently that’s why
our dedicated Customs team have a thorough
understanding of the process and are
committed to providing the best service.
MCS provides a full Customs Clearance
service for both importers and exporters
covering goods shipped by road, sea or air.
EDI links facilitate clearance through every port
and airport in both the UK and Ireland and, as
a result, goods are usually Customs Cleared within an hour of the vessel’s arrival. MCS
offers its clients a free deferment account service enabling start-up importers to quickly
establish their operations with minimum cost
and inconvenience.
We can also assist with bonded shipments,
IPR/OPR (Inward/Outward Processing Relief)

Our People
Within Maritime Cargo Services our people
are our greatest strength. Motivation, drive,
enthusiasm and a sense of humour combine
to provide a balanced and ambitious container
management team. Recently we have started
working with our local high school with a view
to offering guidance to school leavers. We
are doing this not only as a source of future
employees but also because we believe that we
have a responsibility to be involved in the local
community.
(See the sponsorship page of our website.)
www.maritimecargo.com
Our shift system ensures that our Import team is
available 07.00 hrs – 18.00 hrs daily
(Direct Telephone no: 01449 616102) able to
assist and action any instructions or questions
which you may have. We are also available on
our 24 hour emergency telephone number
0800 6122069.
Client Confidentiality
Be reassured, client confidentiality is maintained
at all times. Over the past 20 years we have
handled considerable volumes of container
traffic always ensuring that the highest level
of trust is continuously maintained. To this end
we work very hard to ensure that our client’s
interests are always protected.
The Environment
As a leading freight-forwarder we are highly
aware of our responsibility to protect our
environment for the benefit of future generations.
We are conscious that the shipping and
transport sectors are major sources of green-
house gas emissions and, as an environmentally
responsible company, we look for the greenest
option at every opportunity. For example, sea-
freight via slow-steaming (slightly longer transit
times but 30% less emissions) and UK haulage
combining road and rail for deliveries.
