Delivery: lanes and move dates

Everything moves from Batangas City. Truck and tanker fleets carry all three formats across Luzon. Sea lanes carry drums and ISO tanks by RORO or container vessel, and bulk by tanker or barge, to Visayas and Mindanao. Move windows are stated on the quotation.

Transit is stated on the quotation. Sea-lane timing depends on the inter-island provider, port congestion and vessel assignment — the desk confirms with freight providers before quoting a date.

Sea lanes

Drums and ISO tanks to Visayas and Mindanao move as declared dangerous goods (UN 1230, Class 3, PG II) on domestic RORO or container vessels; bulk volumes move by tanker vessel or barge, quoted per route. Misamis averages around two weeks port-to-port; Cebu is usually shorter; RORO tankers are faster still. Booking, DG declaration and port handling are set out on the quotation. Without a forwarder of your own, the sales desk can refer you to inter-island freight providers and shipping-line account managers who handle Class 3 cargo on these routes.
