Services – Port to Port to Warehouse and Beyond
Container transport and movements are the backbone of modern logistics, ensuring goods reach their destinations safely and efficiently.
NFS 360 Connect provides efficient, secure, and fully managed container transport and container movement services across the UK. Whether you require container delivery to or from a UK port, to a warehouse, on-site unloading, or returns to port, our expert logistics team ensures a seamless and cost-effective process.
The humble shipping container may seem like a simple, mundane object, but it has played a pivotal role in global trade and transportation. Today, these intermodal containers crisscross the globe, with an estimated 17 million making around 200 million trips annually. However, the exact number is unclear, with some sources suggesting as many as 65 million to 170 million containers in use worldwide.
Strategically located in the North East of England, we handle full container loads (FCL) and less than container loads (LCL) with precision and care, helping you reduce dwell time, avoid delays, and maintain control over your supply chain.

Cross-Docking & Onward Distribution
To speed up delivery times and reduce warehousing costs, we offer cross-docking services that enable goods to move directly from an inbound shipping container to an outbound transport for onward shipment without storing goods in a warehouse.
Our cross-docking processes are designed for efficiency, accuracy, and minimal disruption, and focus on speed-to-market, lower costs, and reduced dwell time at ports. It’s especially compelling when customers are paying high demurrage or storage fees at container terminals.

Just-in-time (JIT) supply chains, such as Automotive, Aerospace
Brands operating lean supply chains
