Andy Thorne President and Chairman’s comment... Read more

"For almost 30 years, I have been involved in shipping large and awkward pieces of cargo. I left school at 16 and worked in Lloyds Avenue in the heart of London, the Shipping Community. I am extremely fortunate to have been taught the art of handling conventional cargo in the days when containerisation had not hit the Caribbean, Middle East and African Trades. Nowadays, finding an Agent in the UK who understands conventional cargo is difficult enough, let alone finding one who knows who the customers are. Kestrel has filled that niche and continues to grow."

Port Handling

In order to save costs, or to reach destinations that may not be as accessible as others, your cargo may be stored and transported in several different ways over the course of its journey. We guarantee that regardless of how many times it may change hands, your shipment will be handled with efficiency and professionalism. Our port handling service includes cargo storage, loading, transfer and discharging services. We also offer cranage for shipments that are heavier than usual.

Lashing

The process of securing containers together on board a ship is a high risk operation. Therefore, when carrying out services, our team comply strictly with safety regulations and adhere to warranty surveyor requirements. Our service also covers method, materials and force calculation reports with total precision.

Attendance at Port & Airport Operations

We have the experience to be able to supervise a range of operations, and a deep knowledge of procedure to ensure we report with accuracy and compliance.

Customs & Cargo Documentation

We provide 'alongside' and 'on-board' issued documentation of the highest calibre, guaranteeing a seamless transition at port.

Heavylift & Abnormal Load Transportation

We've co-ordinated shipments for wind turbines, control towers, and even a 37 tonne articulated dumper truck. We have the skills and knowledge to transport loads of this nature whilst still remaining the same calibre of service that is evident in our standard cargo shipping.

Jacking & Skating

Alongside our installation and de-installation services, we can co-ordinate the use of hydraulic jacks and machine moving skates, in circumstances where your cargo is too heavy to be transported via crane. This is one example of many in which we cater to the requirements of heavy lift shipments.

Route Survey

Our extensive experience in project management means we can advise you on the feasibility of a predetermined route. Whether you want to guarantee the arrival of a time-sensitive shipment, or you're looking to save costs, we can create a custom logistical solution for you.
