What it is

Freight forwarding, plainly

Safe & Secure Logistics plans and manages your international shipment end to end. We run the road legs, book the ocean or air leg and see your cargo through customs.

How it works, in detail

A freight forwarder organises a shipment across several carriers and borders on your behalf: booking space, preparing documents, arranging customs and coordinating the handovers. You deal with one desk instead of five counterparties.

We run the plan and the Indian road legs, and we book the ocean or air leg, customs and destination handling. You get a document checklist, tracking updates and one bill.

Quoted door-to-door per shipment. Our desk confirms the price for your exact load, usually within minutes on WhatsApp or a call.

Freight forwarding: questions buyers ask

Does Safe & Secure Logistics provide freight forwarding?
Safe & Secure Logistics arranges freight forwarding through partner operators. Our desk plans the movement, books the capacity and stays your single point of contact from pickup to delivery.
Does SSL own ships, aircraft or containers?
No. Safe & Secure Logistics does not own ships, aircraft or containers. We arrange the capacity for your shipment and manage the movement.
Does SSL hold the FIATA or customs-broker licence?
Our desk shares the operator’s licence and documents for your shipment on request.
How do I get a quote for freight forwarding?
Send origin, destination, cargo, weight/volume and your ready date through the enquiry form or WhatsApp. Our desk confirms the price for your exact load, usually within minutes on WhatsApp or a call.
Where can SSL arrange freight forwarding from?
Anywhere our road reach extends. That reach covers 110+ branches and offices and 2,000+ destinations delivered to in FY 2025-26.
Who is responsible if something goes wrong?
Our desk stays your single point of contact and follows the issue through. Liability for each leg is set out in the terms we share with you before you book.
What does SSL do itself in a forwarding shipment?
Safe & Secure Logistics plans and books the route, runs the Indian road legs, arranges customs and destination handling, and is your single point of contact.
Which Incoterm should I use?
It depends on who controls and insures the main leg. See the Incoterms 2020 guide, then confirm the choice with your buyer before our desk books.
Can SSL handle both export and import?
Yes. We handle both directions. For imports we arrange the bill of entry and run the road leg inland.
Can SSL quote LCL door to door from India to Europe, including France?
Yes. Safe & Secure Logistics quotes the whole journey for LCL (less-than-container-load) shipments from anywhere our road network reaches in India to Europe. One desk prices every leg and stays your single point of contact; the ocean, port and destination legs are carried by vetted partner operators.
What does a complete door-to-door LCL quotation from SSL show?
Pickup from your supplier, Indian export customs clearance, origin CFS charges, road transport to the port (for example Mundra or Nhava Sheva), LCL ocean freight, destination port and CFS charges, destination customs clearance, final delivery to your address, optional cargo insurance, the estimated transit time, the documents required and how long the quotation stays valid.
Are import VAT and customs duties included in the quotation?
Freight quotations normally exclude import VAT and customs duty at the destination, which the importer pays on the customs value. Our quotation states clearly whether each is included or excluded. If you want a delivered-duty-paid price, ask the desk: where it is offered it is shown as its own line.
What should I send to get a full LCL quotation in one go?
Send the supplier’s pickup address, number of packages, dimensions and gross weight, whether the goods are palletised, a description of the goods and the HS code if you have it, the invoice value and Incoterm (for example EXW), your preferred export port and the delivery address. With these the desk can cost every leg without further questions.
Does SSL handle one-off shipments for individuals as well as businesses?
Safe & Secure Logistics works mainly with businesses. Our desk also looks at one-off LCL consignments from individuals buying from Indian suppliers: send the details and the desk confirms what it can quote and by when.
How fast can the desk respond?
Enquiries are answered the same working day; rates for complex routes can take longer, and we tell you when.
