Inland Hub

Moving goods made easier through nearby depots, rail and barge terminals

Supply chains get complicated whenever cargo is transferred from land to ocean or vice versa. Coordinating discharge and arranging collections from the port can become quite a hassle if not handled smoothly.

Maersk Inland Hub makes all this much easier by delivering all your containers arriving from or heading to the seas, straight to an agreed inland facility. These inland facilities can be depots or rail/barge terminals located close to your origin or destination facilities. All you need to do is arrange cargo collection from the facility to your premises.

How it works
