Transit
Transit varies with border conditions, so we don't publish fixed times we can't guarantee. Our clients rely on us for consistent, efficient transit across this corridor — our track record and Google reviews speak to it.
Corridor detail
Durban is the deepest, best-connected port on the Copperbelt's ocean routes, with the widest range of shipping lines and onward services. It is also the longest haul, which rewards a carrier who can hold documentation and tracking together over a long, multi-border run — in-house clearing covers both crossings, and both GPS platforms run the full length of the trip. Beitbridge is a heavily trafficked crossing, so this corridor rewards a carrier who can keep a load moving across two borders without a documentation hand-off breaking the chain.
Well suited to
Containerised cargo needing broad shipping-line choice, minerals and refined metal for global export, and abnormal or project loads where port depth matters more than distance.
Track record
Zero cargo losses since 2011 — every load GPS-tracked on two independent systems, and covered up to USD 750,000 in transit.
