Safe, Affordable North–South Sea Container Transportation Service with Competitive Freight Rates at Proship
The North and South regions of Vietnam have different areas of development across various types of goods. This results in relatively large volumes of cargo traded between the two ends of the country. As a result, North–South freight transportation services have developed significantly, particularly domestic container transportation by sea, with sea freight rates attracting strong interest from businesses and shippers.
Domestic North–South sea transportation in Vietnam involves two-way shipping from Ho Chi Minh City to Hai Phong or vice versa, from Hai Phong to Ho Chi Minh City. This service also includes routes to major port cities along the North–South corridor using containers. At the same time, cargo can be picked up at the warehouse or port and then delivered to the customer’s designated address.
Proship provides domestic sea container transportation services on major routes such as Ho Chi Minh City Port to Hai Phong Port, Da Nang Port, Cua Lo Port, Quy Nhon Port, etc. (and vice versa), ensuring safe, fast, and professional transportation.
The sea container transportation rates here will be publicly listed on the Website. If there are any changes to domestic sea freight rates, we will proactively contact and notify businesses and shippers. Accepted cargo includes LCL (less-than-container-load) and FCL (full-container-load) shipments.
