What we move

Four modes.
One accountable partner.

Most freight doesn't fail in transit — it fails at the handoffs, between carriers, borders and systems. We hold the whole chain, so nothing falls through the gaps.

  1. 01

    Ocean freight

    FCL and LCL across every major trade lane, with space secured through carrier relationships built over decades — not booked on the spot when rates spike.

  2. 02

    Air freight

    Time-critical and standard air cargo routed for the fastest reliable path — weighing connections, capacity and risk, not just the schedule on paper.

  3. 03

    Road transport

    FTL and LTL across regional and cross-border networks, with the first and last mile planned as carefully as the long haul — where most delays are actually born.

  4. 04

    Rail freight

    Block-train and intermodal rail, including the China–Europe corridors — where rail outpaces ocean and undercuts air for the right shipments.

  5. 05

    Warehousing & distribution

    Storage, cross-docking and distribution positioned close to where goods are needed — so the network bends to your demand, not the other way around.

  6. 06

    Project & specialized cargo

    Oversized, heavy-lift and out-of-gauge moves engineered end to end — from route survey and permits to the crane on site and final placement.

Why Continental Freight

The difference is in the handoffs.

Anyone can book a container. The value is in everything around it — the planning before, the visibility during, and the accountability when a plan meets the real world.

  • One accountable partner

    Across four modes and every border, a single team owns the outcome — so there's no gap between vendors for problems to hide in.

  • Visibility you can act on

    Status that means something: proactive alerts and a clear view of where your freight is — and, more usefully, what happens next.

  • Planned for the exception

    Routes built with the bad day in mind, not just the ideal one. When something moves against you, the alternative is already in hand.

  • People who answer

    Named specialists who know your freight and pick up when it matters — including the hours when most desks have gone dark.

Industries

Built for cargo that can't wait — or can't fail.

Two worlds with little patience for excuses: production lines that stop without their parts, and capital projects where one late component delays everything downstream.

Automotive components on an assembly line

Manufacturing & automotive

Just-in-time and just-in-sequence flows, where a missed window idles a line and the cost climbs by the minute. We plan inbound logistics to the hour and hold buffer options for the days that don't go to plan.

  • Inbound-to-line scheduling
  • Sequenced deliveries
  • Expedite & recovery lanes

Energy, industrial & heavy equipment

Oversized components, remote sites and schedules that don't forgive. From route surveys and permits to heavy-lift execution, we move the pieces ordinary networks turn away.

  • Route surveys & permits
  • Heavy-lift & out-of-gauge
  • Site delivery & placement

Global network

Local execution, continental reach.

A network is only as good as the people running it on the ground. Ours spans the regions that matter — coordinated centrally, executed locally, in the same language as your business.

  • Americas

    North, Central and South American lanes, with cross-border road and deep-water ocean gateways.

  • Europe, Middle East & Africa

    Linked by road, rail and the continent's principal ports, from the North Sea to the Gulf.

  • Asia-Pacific

    The world's manufacturing heartland to everywhere else — by sea, by air, and the rail corridors between.

How we work

A method, not a promise.

The same disciplined sequence sits behind every shipment — whether it's a single pallet or a plant relocation.

  1. 01

    Plan

    We map the route, the risks and the alternatives before anything moves — so the plan already survives the things that go wrong.

  2. 02

    Book

    Space secured across the right modes and carriers for the result you need, measured on reliability, not just the headline rate.

  3. 03

    Move

    Execution coordinated across every leg, with one team holding the thread end to end and watching for the early signs of trouble.

  4. 04

    Clear

    Documentation and border formalities coordinated in advance, so cargo keeps moving instead of waiting on paperwork.

  5. 05

    Account

    Proof of delivery, performance reviewed against the plan, and the next move made better by what this one taught us.

By the numbers

Measured by what arrives.

  • 35 Years moving freight without drama
  • 120+ Countries reached

  • 98.6% Delivered on time, in full
“When a line in our plant was hours from stopping, Continental Freight had already re-routed the shipment before we'd finished the call. That's the difference between a vendor and a partner.”
