Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about shipping with GSA Worldwide Logistics — from methods and customs to insurance, pricing, and delivery.

01 — General

Getting started

We are an international freight and logistics company based in Europe, specialising in container, RoRo, vehicle, machinery, and project cargo shipping to destinations worldwide.

Simply request a quote online or contact our team with your cargo details, origin, and destination. We will respond with a clear, no-obligation quote.

In four steps: we quote and book your shipment, prepare and clear export documentation, transport your cargo by sea, and handle destination customs and delivery.

We ship worldwide — across Europe, Asia and Australia, the Middle East, Africa, and Central and South America, through all major ports and trade lanes.

02 — Methods

Shipping methods

RoRo (Roll On Roll Off) means your vehicle or rolling cargo is driven directly onto a specialised vessel, secured for transit, and driven off at the destination — no cranes or containers needed.

FCL (Full Container Load) dedicates an entire container to your cargo. LCL (Less than Container Load) lets you share container space and pay only for the volume you use — ideal for smaller shipments.

These methods handle oversized and out-of-gauge cargo that does not fit a standard container — such as large machinery, project cargo, and heavy-lift loads.

It depends on your cargo type, size, value, and budget. Our team advises the most suitable and cost-effective method for every shipment.

03 — Cargo

Vehicles & cargo

Cars, SUVs, luxury and classic cars, electric vehicles, vans, buses, trucks, pickups, tractors, motorcycles, and ATVs — virtually any vehicle.

Yes. We ship construction, industrial, agricultural, and mining machinery — from excavators and cranes to generators and full production lines — via container, flat-rack, and break-bulk.

Yes. We move sailboats, motor yachts, and powerboats by RoRo, container, or specialist flat-rack and break-bulk, with custom cradling and secure lashing.

Absolutely. We specialise in oversized, out-of-gauge, project, and heavy-lift cargo with full load engineering and expert handling.

04 — Customs

Customs & documentation

Yes. We manage full import and export customs clearance — documentation, HS classification, duty and tax calculation, and compliance at both origin and destination.

Typically a bill of lading or waybill, commercial invoice, packing list, and certificate of origin. We prepare and verify these for you.

A document declaring where goods were manufactured. It determines duty eligibility and qualifies shipments for preferential trade agreements.

Accurate documentation, correct HS classification, and proper duty calculation upfront prevent the errors that cause hold-ups and penalties.

05 — Insurance & Pricing

Insurance & pricing

We offer comprehensive, all-risk cargo insurance on every shipment, usually on a door-to-door basis, so your goods are protected throughout the journey.

Carrier liability is limited and often excludes weather-related losses, typically paying only a fraction of your cargo’s value. Dedicated cargo insurance covers the full value.

Pricing depends on cargo type, volume or weight, method, and route. We provide clear, upfront quotes with no hidden fees — you know the full cost before you commit.

Yes. Once we have your shipment details, we provide a transparent quote so you can plan your budget with confidence.

06 — Tracking & Delivery

Tracking & delivery

Yes. We provide regular shipment updates from booking through to delivery, so you always know where your cargo is.

We collect cargo from your premises and deliver it to the final destination address — a fully managed, end-to-end service. We also offer door-to-port and port-to-port options.

Transit times depend on the route, method, and ports involved. We provide an estimated delivery window upfront and keep you updated throughout.

Yes. We arrange inland transport from the destination port to your warehouse or door, with tracking throughout.
