Sea Freight Shipping

It is the transport of goods by cargo vessel between ports, usually in standard containers (FCL or LCL) or as break bulk and RoRo cargo. It suits large, heavy or non-urgent loads because it costs less per unit than air freight. At Khelogix Global, we handle the booking, shipping documents, customs clearance and delivery, so your cargo moves from the origin port to your warehouse in Saudi Arabia without extra coordination on your side. How long does sea freight shipping take? Transit usually takes from about two weeks to six weeks. The time depends on the route, the carrier’s sailing schedule and whether the vessel goes direct or transships at a hub port. Routes from Asia to the GCC are generally on the shorter side. Europe and the US usually take longer. Several things add time beyond the sailing itself: LCL consolidation, port congestion and customs clearance. Contact Khelogix Global with your origin, destination and cargo type for an estimated transit time on your route.

Yes, if you intend to transport substantial quantities of goods across extensive distances at the most competitive price. Although it takes longer than air freight, it provides unparalleled capacity for heavy equipment, raw materials, and bulk retail stock. If your schedule permits a few weeks of shipping time, the savings on costs are considerable.

Carriers offer fundamental liability coverage, but this coverage is restricted. When transporting valuable cargo, extensive marine insurance justifies the minor additional expense. We can facilitate protection that secures your items from warehouse to warehouse.
