Securing Your Space with Slot Arrangements
At Worth Alliance Shipping, we understand the importance of reliable and efficient ocean freight for your business. That’s why we offer innovative slot arrangement solutions, ensuring you have the space you need on the most suitable vessels for your cargo.
In the world of container shipping, space on board vessels is often divided into “slots.” These slots represent the capacity for a standard 20-foot container (TEU) or a 40-foot container (FEU). Slot arrangements involve agreements between NVOCCs like Worth Alliance Shipping and shipping lines to secure a specific number of slots on their vessels for a particular route or period.
Guaranteed Capacity
- Pre-arranged slots ensure you have the confirmed space you need for your cargo, even during peak seasons or on high-demand routes. This eliminates the risk of delays or missed shipments due to vessel capacity limitations.
Flexibility & Choice
- We offer a variety of slot arrangements to suit your specific needs. Choose from fixed allocations for consistent volume or flexible options that adapt to fluctuating cargo demands.
Cost Optimization
- Through strategic planning and volume discounts, we can negotiate competitive rates for your reserved slots, potentially leading to cost savings compared to booking individual containers on a voyage-by-voyage basis.
