OVERVIEW
As the UK’s second largest car export hub, the Port of Tyne has a solid reputation in the automotive world. We handle around 600,000 cars a year, as well as vans, trucks, mining and construction equipment and even train carriages.
We understand the exacting demands of this specialist sector, and we do our best to exceed them. We load, unload and store all types of wheeled cargo and offer the perfect location for Pre Delivery Inspection and added-value activities.
It’s all about connections. As well as regular shortsea (Europe, Baltic
, Scandinavia) and deep-sea (Asia) shipping services, we also have the benefit of a Channel Tunnel approved automotive rail terminal.
We also provide expert handling and logistics for time-critical automotive parts imported in containers.
