With over a decade of experience in international ocean freight, we know what works, and what doesn’t. Our team is hands-on, alert and always thinks two steps ahead. We coordinate, communicate and solve proactively. Whether you are moving bulk goods, high volumes or sensitive cargo across the world, you will feel the difference: short lines, fast action, and a partner who stays involved from booking to final delivery.
We don’t just move freight, we move with you. Every shipment is a reflection of your business, and we treat it with the same urgency and precision as you would yourself.
Every shipment has its own demands. That is why we offer specialised air freight solutions for cargo that is anything except standard.
A full container, dedicated to your cargo alone. The most secure and efficient option for larger volumes, with less handling and a tighter grip on transit time.
Smaller shipment? We consolidate your cargo into a shared container, so you only pay for the space you use. Buyer consolidation across multiple suppliers into one shipment is part of it, less handling, lower cost, one arrival.
For pharma, food and other temperature-sensitive goods, we arrange GDP-compliant reefer containers with the right monitoring and certified handling. Your cold chain stays intact across the ocean.
Hazardous cargo handled fully in line with IMDG: correct classification, approved packaging, labelling and documentation. Safe, compliant and accepted without delays..
Non-standard dimensions, heavy loads and high-value shipments that do not fit a standard container. Flat rack, open top, flexitank or breakbulk, we engineer the right solution where others step back.
We are at our best in sectors where timelines are tight, regulations are strict and reliability is non-negotiable. Our ocean freight expertise is shaped around the industries we serve every day:
Temperature-sensitive and GDP-compliant air freight where condition and timing are critical.
Aafe, IATA-compliant dangerous goods transport, handled by people who understand the rules.
Oversized, heavy and high-value cargo that needs precise planning and careful handling.
Why ship your ocean freight with Trasegro
Specialists in non-standard, high-compliance cargo
Dangerous goods, pharma and oversized freight are not the exception for us, they are our specialty. We handle the complex shipments other forwarders would rather avoid.

Independently audited quality and sustainability performance, proof that our process delivers consistently.
Every road freight request starts with understanding your cargo, deadlines and site requirements. Our planners ask the right questions up front so the driver never arrives to a surprise, and your customer never waits.
From ADR-compliant chemical transport to last-minute schedule changes, we match the right trailer, route and carrier to your cargo. Tautliner, mega trailer or specialised equipment, we engineer the solution your shipment actually needs.
We work exclusively with vetted, certified European carriers. Genuine involvement combined with efficient digital systems means your goods move with partners who meet our safety, compliance and service standards.
From pickup to delivery, we monitor your shipment in real time. You will be the first to know if anything changes, and we will already be solving it before you need to ask.
We check in after delivery, review performance and fine-tune future transports. Long-term partnerships are built one reliable shipment at a time.
Strong companies make bold choices and know how to stand out in the marketplace. That is exactly where Trasegro and Palletbedrijf van der Pol find common ground.
A forwarder works for you, not for one carrier. We compare routes and shipping lines, secure space, handle documentation, customs and compliance, and stay your single point of contact from start to finish. You get the best solution rather than the only one a single line can offer.
With FCL (full container load) a container is dedicated to your cargo alone, ideal for larger volumes with less handling. With LCL (less than container load) we consolidate your goods with other shipments, so you only pay for the space you use. We help you choose the most cost-efficient option for your volume.
Strictly according to the IMDG Code. Your cargo is correctly classified, packed in approved packaging, properly labelled and accompanied by complete documentation, so your hazardous shipment is safe, compliant and accepted without delays.
Yes. We arrange GDP-compliant reefer containers with the right monitoring and certified handling, so your cold chain stays intact across the ocean.
Mainly the volume (container type for FCL, or cubic metres and weight for LCL), the route and the service level. Surcharges such as BAF and CAF, port and handling fees, and any special handling for dangerous or temperature-sensitive goods can also play a role. We are transparent about every component.
es. We arrange flat rack, open top and breakbulk solutions for cargo that does not fit a standard container, and coordinate every step so it arrives safely and on schedule.
es. We monitor your shipment in real time and update you proactively. If anything changes, you are the first to know, and we are usually already solving it. Customised reporting is available on request.
