Commercial International Shipping Simplified

Make even the most complex projects feel simple when you work alongside a team of international shipping experts.

What to Look for in an International Freight Forwarder

  • Experience: It's important to find an international freight forwarder that's experienced in planning, managing and executing shipments all over the world.
  • Single Point of Contact: If possible, find an international shipper that provides you a single point of contact from start to finish. This will ensure you can get the information you need when you need it — without having to jump through hoops to find someone that can help.
  • Attention-to-Detail: Ensure your cargo gets on the right conveyance with the proper documentation, to the right port, on the right vessel, at the right time. Ease that burden by partnering with a freight forwarder that can do the work for you.

How ATS International Can Help

  • Minimize the risk of damage with exclusive no-transfer options in the U.S. Domestic Offshore Tradelanes (Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, Hawaii and Alaska). As one of the few asset-based Non-Vessel-Operating Common Carriers (NVOCC) in these major trade lanes, your cargo will be loaded onto a company-owned trailer — where it will stay from the moment it’s picked up domestically until it’s delivered to its final destination.
  • Cost-effective international freight forwarding to Europe or anywhere in the world. Count on the most cost-effective journey for your cargo.
  • Project cargo shipping that fits your needs. Roll-on/Roll-off or Lift-on/Lift-off shipping allows you to move one component or major project cargo. Choose from full charter, part charter or liner service.
  • Innovative and exclusive breakbulk shipping services. Easily ship over-dimensional international cargo that needs to be picked up from multiple suppliers. Rely on pioneering solutions other breakbulk shipping companies can't provide.
  • Flexible vessel chartering or air freight services. Get your cargo shipped to whatever location you need at whatever time you need it. Just tell us how much space you need and we’ll find the most optimal transportation plan for your cargo.

Senior Logistics Analyst, 3M

ATS International went above and beyond to do anything and everything they could to help us and provide peace of mind. This was our first transaction of this size in terms of size and distance, as our shipment was coming from St. Cloud, Minnesota, to Maui, Hawaii. There were a lot of parties and moving parts and ATS International was there every step of the way!

ATS International provided options and helped us improve how we shipped from our manufacturer in Germany to the job site. Three different methods were provided, which ultimately shaved off two weeks in transit time without having a major impact on cost.
