MODES OF TRANSPORTATION
01
Ocean
HSL is a leading carrier and distributor of a wide variety commodities worldwide with access to fleets of over 50 dry bulk vessels backed by 51 years of knowledge and expertise. By using the best market techniques to meet customer needs with innovative logistics solutions, HSL’s worth extends beyond ships and experience. Our diverse network of global relationships gives strength to HSL to ensure the efficient and reliable transportation of customer goods.
02
Barging
Barging along narrow waterways is the most efficient method of transporting goods. A single barge has equivalent capacity to 15 rail cars or 60 truck trailers. A single tugboat can handle multiple barges, providing excellent opportunities to take advantage of economies of scale. HSL navigates geographical challenges and works with clients to determine if lightering into barges can be a cost effective method of transporting their goods.
03
Intermodal
Intermodal shipping has arisen in recent years as a modern, budget-friendly, alternative to truckload shipping. This mode of transportation has existed for centuries, and today, technological advancements in the world of intermodal logistics have made intermodal shipping nearly as fast as truckload shipping. HSL is able to offer worldwide intermodal service as part of our logistics services.
04
Truckload
In a supply chain system, it is common that carriage begins and ends with road transportation. Responsive and adaptable, trucks move over 60% of the world’s freight. HSL engages with trucking carriers across the globe to "ensure our customers" goods are moved quickly and efficiently when transporting oversized or smaller cargoes.
05
Road Train
In Australia, HSL utilizes “road trains” of 3 or more trailers attached to a single truck. This method efficiently moves large quantities of goods across long distances. By working with local carriers, we are able to ensure that transportation of raw materials to the port can be accomplished in the most cost-effective manner possible.
