Wislog

With its bulky nature and easily damaged surfaces, furniture is a cargo group that needs special attention. Risks such as scratches, crushing, moisture and poor stowage can lead to both product loss and customer dissatisfaction. Wislog Lojistik manages these risks at the planning stage for furniture manufacturers and exporters.

We ship furniture to the European market by full truckload and groupage truck, and to the Gulf countries, Libya, Lebanon, Malta and African markets by FCL and LCL container. For high-volume, lightweight furniture loads, we use mega trailers and 40’ HC containers to maximise volume efficiency.

During loading, we apply blanket and stretch wrapping, corner protectors, ratchet strap securing and stowage sequence checks. For multi-item shipments such as hotel, residential and retail projects, we coordinate your site deliveries with project-based schedules and phased planning.

Frequently asked questions

Which transport mode is best for furniture exports?

Road freight is usually preferred for furniture exports to Europe because it is door to door with no transhipment. For the Gulf, North Africa and more distant markets, FCL or LCL containers are more economical.

Does flat-pack furniture reduce transport costs?

Yes. Knocked-down, flat-packed furniture takes up less space; more products fit into the same vehicle or container, which significantly lowers the unit transport cost.

How do you reduce the risk of damage to furniture?

We minimise the risk of damage through appropriate protective packaging, balanced stowage, securing equipment and photo-documented checks during loading. We also recommend that you consider cargo insurance options for your shipment.

For every transport mode and cargo type, we have summarised our processes, the benefits and the key points to consider.

Transport Modes

International Sea Freight

Sea freight is the most economical option for high-volume, long-distance cargo. We manage the entire process — from freight booking and port operations to container tracking and delivery at the port of destination. Our strong line connections support Far East imports and Mediterranean–Gulf exports.

FCL and LCL Container Shipping

If your cargo fills a container, FCL gives you a container dedicated solely to your shipment; for smaller volumes, LCL means you pay only for the space you use. We move your full and part container loads from Far East ports and Europe on regular sailings.

International Road Freight

Road freight is the most flexible way to deliver door to door. We run regular shipments to Poland, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Italy, Bulgaria, Greece, Albania and the Baltic states, carrying your cargo safely with curtainsider, mega trailer and ADR-equipped vehicle options.

Full Truckload and Groupage Trucking

If your cargo fills a truck, we offer fast, direct full truckload transport with no transhipment; for loads of just a few pallets, we provide a cost-effective part load solution. We run regular shipments on routes to Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Bulgaria, Greece, Italy, France and Albania.

International Air Freight

For urgent production parts and high-value goods, air freight turns time into an advantage. We organise your exports departing from Istanbul and Sabiha Gökçen airports, as well as your imports from around the world, in line with IATA rules.

Domestic Road Transport in Türkiye

We provide full truckload and part load road transport across Türkiye, connecting factories, warehouses, ports and bonded warehouses. We manage the movement of your export cargo to the port and your import cargo from the port to your warehouse, fully integrated with your international operations.

Cross-Trade (Third-Country) Shipping

Goods you buy in the Far East, Europe or the Americas can be shipped straight to Libya, Lebanon, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Italy or France without a detour through Türkiye. We manage freight, documentation and customs coordination from a single desk and protect commercial confidentiality between your supplier and your buyer.

Specialist Cargo

Chemical and Dangerous Goods Transport

We specialise in hazardous cargo such as chemical raw materials, aerosols, flammable liquids and corrosive products. With correct classification, packaging, labelling, documentation and equipment, we deliver fully compliant transport by road, sea and air.

Cosmetics, Deodorant and Detergent Transport

Aerosol products such as deodorants and perfumes, cosmetics and personal care products, and liquid and powder detergents all need specific planning — both because of dangerous goods rules and because they are easily damaged. We bring experience of regular shipments in these product groups to European, Middle Eastern and African markets.

Raw Material Transport

Keeping your production line running depends on raw materials reaching your factory at the right time. From plastic granules to chemical raw materials, and from minerals and fillers to packaging materials, we manage your raw material imports and exports by sea and road in a planned way.

Machinery and Project Cargo Transport

Production lines, CNC machines, generators, steel structures and out-of-gauge equipment require route surveys, special equipment and lifting plans. We plan your machinery and project cargo from loading after dismantling through to delivery on site.

Open Top and Flat Rack Container Shipping

We use open top containers for cargo that does not fit a standard container or needs top loading, and flat rack containers for cargo requiring side loading or exceeding standard dimensions. For tarpaulin-covered open container loads, we manage securing and protection planning end to end.

Warehousing & Bonded Storage

Warehousing Services

By combining transport with warehousing, we make your supply chain more flexible. In warehouses in Türkiye and, through our partners, around the world, we provide short- and long-term storage, handling, palletising, labelling and shipment preparation services.

Bonded Warehouse and Customs Storage Services

You can hold imported goods in a bonded warehouse without paying customs duties and fees, release them for free circulation in partial quantities as needed, or re-export them. We manage your bonded warehouse processes together with transport and customs coordination.

Cargo Collection and Consolidation Services

We bring together the products you buy from multiple suppliers — in different countries or within the same country — at collection warehouses, inspect them and combine them into a single container or truck shipment. This lowers your freight costs and reduces your documentation and tracking workload.
