SEA · Acme Services
Ocean Freight.
Cost-effective, container, break-bulk or Ro-Ro.
Efficient sea freight for shipments of every size — FCL, LCL, Ro-Ro and specialist cargo, managed end-to-end with an experienced ocean team.
Overview
A service that keeps your cargo moving.
Ocean freight remains the backbone of global trade. Whether you need a full container to yourself, a share of container space, Ro-Ro for wheeled or self-propelled cargo, or handling for out-of-gauge freight, we book the sailing, prepare the paperwork, arrange haulage at both ends and see the shipment through customs to the consignee's door.

In detail
How we handle every part of the job.
Full Container Load (FCL)
Your cargo, your container. 20ft, 40ft and 40ft high-cube containers loaded at origin, sealed and delivered to the destination address.
Less than Container Load (LCL)
For shipments that don't fill a container. We consolidate your cargo with other freight and you pay only for the volume you use.
Ro-Ro (Roll-on / Roll-off)
For wheeled or self-propelled cargo — cars, vans, trucks, agricultural equipment, plant and heavy machinery driven directly onto and off the vessel via built-in ramps. We arrange collection of your vehicle or machinery and delivery to the port for shipment, worldwide.
Documentation
Bill of lading issuance, commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin and letter-of-credit compliance where required.
Customs clearance
Full import and export clearance handled in-house so your container isn't sitting in port waiting on paperwork.
Inland haulage
Container collection, port delivery and destination haulage arranged with vetted hauliers.
Tracking & transparency
Milestone updates from cargo receipt through to delivery, with proactive communication if anything changes.

What's the difference between FCL and LCL?+
FCL gives you the whole container. LCL shares container space with other cargo, so you pay only for the space you use.
Do you ship vehicles, plant and machinery?+
Yes, via Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) shipping, where wheeled or self-propelled cargo — cars, trucks, and heavy machinery — is driven directly onto and off the vessel using built-in ramps. Primarily used for consumer cars, commercial trucks, agricultural equipment and mining machinery. Available to and from anywhere; we can arrange collection of your vehicle, plant or machinery and delivery to the port for shipment.
Do you ship luggage?+
Yes, to and from anywhere, from the smallest item to very large ones. Very popular with students. Available worldwide.
Can you handle documentation for restricted destinations?+
Yes. We advise on the paperwork the destination country requires and prepare it in-house wherever possible.
Do you offer door-to-door ocean freight?+
Yes. We arrange collection at origin, ocean transit, import clearance and delivery to the consignee's address.
