Frequently Asked
Questions

Can Move Intermodal help me design a new supply chain from scratch?

Yes. With over 30 years of experience as a pioneer in the sector, we act as a strategic partner. We analyze your current road flows and design a tailor-made intermodal solution that optimizes both costs and CO2 emissions.

How can a higher payload per container actually reduce my total logistics costs?

Intermodal units, such as our specialized 45ft swap bodies, allow for a payload of up to 30 tonnes (depending on weight restrictions per country). By transporting more weight per shipment compared to standard road transport, you reduce the total number of shipments needed, lowering the cost per tonne and minimizing handling movements at your loading docks.

​​How does Move Intermodal guarantee “Just-in-Time” delivery without using traditional trucking?

We use the "Terminal-as-a-Warehouse" principle. By pre-positioning your containers at a terminal close to the final destination, we can deliver to your plant on-demand. This creates a buffer in your supply chain, making you less vulnerable to production fluctuations or road congestion.

What happens if a train is delayed?

Thanks to our end-to-end control and proactive monitoring, our team sees potential delays in real-time. Because we control 60 company shuttle trains per week and have a large own fleet, we can often reschedule or use our road network to ensure your production line never stands still.

How does “sealed container” transport improve my cargo security?

In intermodal transport, the loading unit is sealed at your warehouse and only opened at the final destination. Because there is no intermediate transshipment of the goods themselves (only the container moves), the likelihood of theft or damage during transport is minimal.

What quality certifications does Move Intermodal hold to ensure safe transport?

We are fully committed to high industry standards, including ISO 9001 and SQAS (Safety & Quality Assessment for Sustainability). We also participate in the "Operation Clean Sweep" and "Responsible Care" programs to ensure environmental safety during transport and handling.

Higher payload

Intermodal transport allows you to carry more and heavier goods per shipment. We can load up to 30 tonnes in a single shipment! This gives you the advantage of lower transport costs per tonne and fewer vehicle movements on your site, which also increases safety.

No more traffic jams or driving restrictions

Since we cover the largest distance by train or vessel, intermodal transport decreases the number of trucks on the road instantly. In this way, we reduce congestion on the road. Another added bonus is that trains and vessels are not subject to driving bans on the weekends, at night time or on public holidays.

More sustainable

We can decrease the number of shipments thanks to a higher payload, resulting in lower CO2 emissions, but there’s more… Intermodal transport also uses more sustainable transport modes, such as trains and vessels, which can further decrease CO2 emissions by up to 90%. As such, we contribute to a greener environment, and so do you, as a customer. Did you know that we even provide you with a CO2 certificate at the end of the year? On top of that, we are committed to the Responsible Care and Operation Clean Sweep programme and we are SQAS-certified.

Just-in-time deliveries

Did you know that Move Intermodal can also store a container as stock at a nearby terminal? This allows for stock deliveries to the factory on demand, ensuring you are always prepared in case of unforeseen circumstances and you always have safety stock on stand-by.

More safety & security

We work with a closed and sealed container from the point of departure to the point of arrival, which decreases the risk of damaged goods. We also carry out constant process monitoring, from loading to unloading, as well as during goods storage within the same container, which reduces the risk of theft. 

Flexibility and guaranteed capacity

We work with 60 company shuttle trains per week, operating from several terminals, combined with our fleet of over 2.800 different loading units. Moreover, thanks to our strong partnerships, we enjoy priority access to the European rail shuttle network. This allows us to design supply chain solutions entirely tailored to your needs!

We believe that people are the key to delivering the best possible service to our customers. Our team of 150 back-office staff, over 350 drivers and numerous terminal partners are all highly motivated and passionate about their job. We move green, we move together and we move intermodal to provide you with a top-notch service.
