International freight forwarding · Established 2006. 20 years in logistics.
Air / Ocean / Road / Rail
Air, ocean, road and rail freight, connected through one coordinated plan. Move from origin to final delivery with a team that understands your cargo, your markets and your priorities.
01 / The clear answer
A freight forwarder coordinates the movement of goods between origin and destination. The work connects transport arrangements, shipment information, documentation and delivery requirements, often across several carriers or modes.
Global Sky Logistics provides international and domestic freight forwarding by air, ocean, road and rail. Our team coordinates the journey from pickup through customs arrangements to final delivery, with a dedicated account contact and storage or distribution support where needed.
Explore all logistics servicesMultimodal freight solutions
Choose the transport around the cargo and delivery window. A single shipment may combine air or ocean freight with road or rail connections, rather than relying on one mode for the entire journey.
For shipments where timing and access shape the plan, our air freight team works with carrier relationships and strategic routes to coordinate the movement. A dedicated account contact follows the shipment arrangements from origin through the delivery stages.
Discuss the ready date, packed dimensions, weight and required arrival.
When the deadline cannot accommodate a regular routing, review our time-critical air freight solutions.
Move containerised cargo through international shipping lanes connecting North America, Europe and Asia. Full Container Load (FCL), Less-than-Container Load (LCL) and consolidation options support different shipment volumes and schedules.
Discuss volume, equipment needs, ports and onward delivery.
Plan destination requirements alongside the sailing with our customs clearance and trade compliance services.
Connect pickup, regional transport and final delivery with the rest of the shipment. Road planning considers access, border crossings, loading arrangements and receiving times, whether used on its own or alongside air, ocean or rail.
Discuss collection and delivery addresses, access and timing.
Connect collection and final delivery with warehousing and distribution services when stock needs to be held between movements.
Include rail where the trade corridor, available connections and cargo profile make it a suitable part of the plan. Coordinate terminal transfers and road links with the main rail movement as an intermodal journey.
Discuss the corridor, cargo volume, terminal access and delivery window.
For equipment with unusual dimensions or handling needs, include oversized and complex project cargo planning before selecting the transport mode.
Built around your business
FCL uses a container for one shipper’s consignment. LCL combines smaller consignments from different shippers within a container. The choice depends on volume, cargo characteristics, schedule and handling requirements.
| Option | Planning consideration | What to discuss |
|---|---|---|
| Full Container Load (FCL) | A container allocated to your consignment, even when it is not filled to capacity. | Cargo volume, container type, loading arrangements and delivery access. |
| Less-than-Container Load (LCL) | Shared container space, with consolidation and deconsolidation stages. | Packed volume, packaging, handling compatibility and the consolidation schedule. |
02 / Plan beyond the main transport leg
Share when the goods will be ready and when they need to arrive. Compare collection, terminal handling, main transport and final delivery as one schedule.
Packed dimensions, weight, volume and product characteristics influence the mode and equipment. Explain loading access, special handling and any potentially regulated goods early.
Consider freight alongside origin and destination handling, customs arrangements, storage and delivery. Define the scope before comparing transport proposals.
03 / Clearing and forwarding
Establish the shipment details, transport scope and agreed trade terms. Bring the commercial invoice, packing list and available origin information into the plan.
Our clearing and forwarding team coordinates documentation and the customs requirements for the route alongside the transport arrangements. Permits and supporting information depend on the goods and markets involved.
Confirm the receiving location, contacts and access requirements. Link onward delivery with warehousing or distribution when the shipment needs an additional stage.
04 / Your shipment brief
The more clearly you describe the cargo and the journey, the easier it is to assess suitable transport options. Start with the information available.
The agreed trade terms help define who handles delivery tasks, costs and risks. Share the chosen rule and the named place with the team when discussing the shipment.
Consult the International Chamber of Commerce, the publisher of the Incoterms® rules, for the official starting point on delivery responsibilities between seller and buyer.
