How It Works: Your Shipping Journey Made Simple
At Celtic Shipping Agencies, we strip away the complexity of international logistics to provide a seamless door-to-port or port-to-port experience. Our process begins with a personal consultation, where our team reviews your specific cargo needs—whether you are transporting a single family vehicle, heavy agricultural machinery, or out-of-gauge project cargo. Once we understand your requirements and destination, we leverage our partnerships with major global carriers (such as Wallenius Wilhelmsen and K Line) to secure the most competitive rates and efficient routes, helping you choose between RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) for wheeled cargo or Container Shipping for added protection. From there, we handle the heavy lifting of logistics management; our team coordinates all necessary customs documentation, compliance checks, and local handling to ensure your shipment moves without delay. You stay informed throughout the journey, giving you peace of mind that your cargo will arrive safely and on time, anywhere from Dublin to destinations worldwide.
