Hold Cleaning at Port

Cargo holds prepared during port operations — full crews, parallel working

THE SERVICE

Shore Gang Cleaning

Large shore-based teams that clean every hold inside the port stay, between discharge and next load.

Overview

When the schedule is tight and every hold has to be ready before the next fixture, volume of labour is what wins. Our shore gangs put a full complement of trained cleaners on board the moment the last grab lifts, so cleaning runs in parallel with your other port operations rather than after them.

Gang size is matched to the number of holds, the previous cargo and the hours available. We bring our own high-pressure units, chemicals, lighting and safety equipment, so nothing is drawn from the ship's stores or the crew's working hours.

Why Choose Port Cleaning

  • Hold-ready status before next fixture
  • Full teams mobilised to your berth
