Factory stuffing and container loading in Pakistan from Ibrahim Logistics: We deliver the empty container to your factory, supervise loading and seal it for the port or dry port.
Stuffing the container at your own factory saves double handling and protects cargo. We deliver the empty container, supervise loading, weigh it, seal it and move it to the port or dry port under bond.
Correct loading is also a safety matter: the weight must be spread evenly, the cargo secured and the verified gross mass declared before the container is accepted at the terminal.

- Empty container delivery and release
- Supervision of loading and tally
- Weighing and VGM declaration
