One Way – Reposition Service:

One-Way leasing, also known as “Cabotage,” is a cost-efficient method of repositioning empty containers to address global trade imbalances. Due to the uneven flow of goods worldwide, surplus containers often accumulate in certain locations while shortages occur in others, creating a critical need to reposition empty containers to ports where demand is high.

At Sea Orient, we offer One-Way Lease services to freight forwarders, NVOCCs (Non-Vessel Operating Common Carriers), and shipping companies. This service allows customers to lease a container for a one-way trip, moving cargo to a different destination while paying the usual freight charges. Customers can conveniently pick up containers at one location and return them at another, streamlining logistics and reducing repositioning costs.

This arrangement is a win-win solution, benefiting both parties by optimizing operations and minimizing transport and reallocation expenses.

Furthermore, Sea Orient maintains strong connections with major container industry players, including depots, NVOCCs, leasing companies, and shipping lines, enabling us to provide seamless and efficient One-Way leasing solutions.
