Frequently asked questions about GLOMB and container transport

Here you will find answers to the most important questions regarding transport, enquiries and working with GLOMB.

What makes GLOMB special as a container logistics service provider?

GLOMB combines the efficiency of an internationally operating transport service provider with the short lines of communication typical of a family business. We focus on container logistics and specialised transport, relying on our own fleet, digital processes and personal contacts. This ensures customers receive predictable transit times, transparent information and solutions that truly meet their requirements.

In which regions does GLOMB operate for container transport?

We connect the North German seaports of Bremerhaven, Bremen, Hamburg and Wilhelmshaven with all major economic regions in Germany and Europe. This includes traditional domestic routes, transport to the western ports, and shipments to Central and Eastern Europe. This enables shippers, shipping lines and freight forwarders to manage their container flows through a single central partner.

What role does sustainability play at GLOMB?

We take a holistic view of sustainability. We reduce emissions through modern EURO 6 trucks, alternative fuels such as HVO and battery-electric trucks. At the same time, we invest in secure jobs, staff training and responsible corporate governance. This creates an approach that combines environmental, social and economic aspects.
