World-wide Ocean Carriers
Stellar Lines are carriers of project and other general cargo throughout the world. We accept breakbulk cargoes of all kinds, and specialize in moves and projects that require special handling and logistical arrangements because of the size or weight, configuration or nature of the cargo, or because of difficult to reach destinations, or other circumstances.
We offer door-to-door service from anywhere in the United States, Western or Eastern Europe to any part of the world. The cargo moves from its place of origin by a combination of ocean vessel, river ship, rail, and road, as necessary, under through bills of lading issued by Stellar Lines. Our principal destinations are Mediterranean and Black Sea ports, for which we have frequent departures from ports in the Gulf of Mexico, the U.S. Atlantic Coast, and other North Atlantic ports. Ocean transportation is on vessels operated by Stellar Lines.
The Agency Network
Stellar Lines is represented world wide by a network of agency companies, some of which are affiliates of the group, and all of which are carefully selected for reliability and efficient operations. Our agents represent us on the spot in various ports and commercial centers throughout the world, caring for our cargo, communicating with local customers and consignees, and performing local operations such as supervising port and inland operations in their area, receiving or delivering cargo, collecting freight, issuing bills of lading, and arranging for transshipment to final delivery points beyond the port of discharge.
Contract and Project Carrier
Although we undertake projects world-wide, our principal destinations are the ports of the Mediterranean, Black Seas, and the inland points in the countries of area, as well as Central Asia.
We have successfully undertaken major transportation projects throughout the world. Such projects include:
- Agricultural machinery to Russia, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and Ukraine; power stations from the United States to Turkey, Morocco.
- Gas and oil pipeline equipment to Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and other parts of Central Asia.
- Steel plants and other industrial hard ware to Mexico and other parts of South America.
- Arms, ammunition, weapon systems, military vehicles, naval vessels, airplanes and other military hardware for the Greek Armed Forces as well as the Moroccan, Romanian, U.S. and Canadian Armed Forces.
- USAID cargoes to several sites throughout the Balkans, the Black Sea region and Central Asia.
- Mining equipment to Ukraine, and the Caucasus.
- Railway engines from the United States to Kazakhstan.
In many of these projects, the transportation of the cargo was undertaken by Stellar Lines from the plant or warehouse of origin, or the port of loading, and carried through to its destination at the inland project site, warehouse or rail-yard by a combination of ocean vessel, river ship, road, and railway transport.
