We have 'interline agreements' (freedom to book open market cargo and other lines equipment) with a number of international shipping lines.The system is very simple, Coast All is free to market each vessel prior to berthing for the convenience of our clients, which also provides the added advantage to our lines of repositioning their containers.This means the final rates to our clients are assisted by the line having its' containers moved to a more useful port. All of this adds up to one thing � cost effective transport. Our clients receive large transport cost reductions due to the greatly increased frequency of service and competition around the New Zealand coast. Coast All is happy to assist with your transport needs and by ensuring your company takes advantage of this opportunity, you will continue to enjoy the options available to you for your inter-island transport requirements.
