How it works
Containers are delivered to the terminals by our own fleet of container trucks. The company has long-standing relations with Russian Railways and serves a wide range of destinations across Russia.
20 and 40 ft containers, as well as other types, are carried on 40 and 80 ft flat cars with fittings. The convenience of container transport is that the cargo travels inside the container — for door-to-door delivery or for storage at a warehouse. Containers carry bulk cargo (open top), liquids (tank containers), frozen goods (reefers), packaged and oversized cargo. More details in the section “Container types”.
