Shortages of Equipment & Space Issues

We are still seeing shortages of equipment and space issues throughout NZ, USA, Europe, and Asia (Especially Los Angeles, Germany, Turkey, Thailand & Japan, with the current wait on bookings around 1 month).

To add, Germany & mid-west USA are also experiencing delays on truck/rail services.

As this is an industry-wide issue with many ports around the World affected, we seek your understanding as we work relentlessly to meet your shipping needs.

Please give plenty of notice for all new bookings as pre-booking space in advance is vital
