The Kingdom of Eswatini Swaziland is a small landlocked country which covers just over 17 000 square kilometres. It is situated between the Republic of South Africa and Mozambique. As a landlocked country, cargo also needs to be transported overland.
That’s why we have an inland rail and road network that connects seamlessly with our ocean vessels. If you wish, we can even pick up your goods from your production site and deliver them to their final destination – wherever that happens to be – to increase the simplicity, transparency and reliability of your supply chain.

Maersk no longer includes turn-in/drop off fees as part of the quoting process.
DRP - Drop Off Charge(Imports) will be applied in the event that an empty container is returned to an inland depot at destination, which can also apply as a penalty based on turn-in advisory.
