Peak Season 2016
It's that time of year when we begin reminding everyone about the importance of pre-planning heading into the peak season. To ensure that you are extra organised for the busy season, our top tip is to order early. Doing so ensures that your goods don't arrive right in the middle of peak port times.

SOLAS Update
The sky didn't fall, and the containers did not stop moving when the amendments to the SOLAS Convention entered into force at the beginning of this month.
To protect the safety of the entire supply chain, shippers are now responsible for providing a Verified Gross Mass (VGM) of their containers before exporting.

Vintage Vehicle
Recently EES, in conjunction with R.Melling and Associates, joined forces to ship this pre-war beauty to Felixstowe in the United Kingdom. This stunning coupe will now tour the United Kingdom in style.
Moving cars by sea freight is a specialised field, and should always be left to the professionals.

Asbestos Warnings
With the recent discovery of asbestos in building products used in Perth's new Children's Hospital, the issue of asbestos in imports has been thrust into the spotlight.
The Australian Border Force (ABF) have issued warrants against the company that imported these products.
It is important to remember that Australia adopts a zero tolerance to asbestos in imports.
It is the importer's responsibility to ensure any products they are importing are asbestos free.
