Facility Scope to Confirm Before Cargo Release
- General cargo and project cargo: Breakbulk, machinery, steel, timber or oversized shipments should be accepted only after checking berth suitability, lifting arrangements, working space and cargo-securing requirements.
- Container handling: The supplied record shows no FCL or LCL service count. Our team will therefore verify whether the requested movement can be handled locally or must be routed via a confirmed container gateway.
- Storage and empty equipment: Do not presume bonded storage, reefer plugs, empty-container depots or long-stay yard capacity. Confirm availability, free-time terms and cargo security with the nominated operator.
- Customs and inspection: Customs status, inspection arrangements and any controlled-cargo process must be confirmed with the responsible customs office or appointed representative before the cargo is dispatched.
- Inland transport: Road collection and delivery can be arranged subject to truck type, access conditions, loading equipment, driver waiting time and local appointment requirements.
Routes & Transit Times
Routing Logic for International Cargo
- European and Mediterranean cargo: Aigion may be considered as a local delivery point when a suitable maritime service or onward road connection is available; direct service, frequency and equipment are not assumed.
- Deep-sea imports and exports: Cargo may need connection through a larger Greek or Mediterranean gateway, followed by feeder or road transport to Aigion. The actual port pair depends on carrier acceptance and cargo characteristics.
- Transit-time planning: Total lead time includes booking confirmation, transshipment or gateway handling, customs processing, road availability and possible port congestion. We provide an indicative schedule only after receiving the full origin, destination and cargo profile.
- Schedule control: Weather, vessel-window changes, limited local handling slots, customs inspection and equipment repositioning can affect the final delivery date. Always plan a buffer for time-critical cargo.

Operations & Compliance
Controls That Prevent Local-Port Delays
- Cut-off and receiving window: Aigion-specific cargo cut-off, gate appointment and documentation deadlines must be obtained from the confirmed operator. Do not apply the timetable of another Greek port.
- Dangerous goods: Provide the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, flash point where applicable, SDS and packing certificate before booking. Written acceptance is required before dispatch.
- Customs documentation: Commercial invoice, packing list, transport document, customs instructions, origin information and any required permits must be consistent. Customs status should be established before the truck arrives.
- Inspection and delivery: If customs or other authorities select the shipment for examination, additional handling, storage or truck waiting time may arise. Keep the consignee, broker and driver contact chain active.
Shipping Tips
Recommended Booking Procedure
- Send our service team the commodity, HS code, package dimensions, gross weight, cargo value, Incoterm, customs status and final delivery address before requesting a rate.
- Request written confirmation of the actual loading point, receiving party, equipment type, cargo acceptance, cut-off and whether the movement is port-to-port, port-to-door or gateway-plus-road.
- Use export-grade packaging and clear package marks. For fragile, heavy or oversized cargo, provide lifting points, center-of-gravity information and loading photographs where relevant.
- Keep a contingency option through a confirmed Greek gateway or an all-road solution when the Aigion call, equipment supply or handling window cannot be secured in time.
