Lashing and securing

All units must be equipped with the appropriate lashing points which shall be marked and on semi-trailers also the trailer hitch. If weather conditions require the securing of loads, vehicles not equipped with the necessary lashing points will not be shipped.

The route Naantali-Kapellskär-Naantali is within the LWHA (Low Wave Height Area) which means that we accept, in divergence with the standard, only two securing points per side. This means for road trains that each component, i.e. the motor vehicle and each trailer respectively has two (2) securing points per side. Semi-trailer has two (2) securing points per side, a towing coupling at the front of the towing vehicle is sufficient for two lashings.

Vehicles with a total mass less than 3,5 tons do not require securing points. Lashing points should be constructed according to the appropriate standard (for detailed information on this, contact the vehicle manufacturer in question).

Heavy transports:
Please contact our booking offices for more information.

We transport dangerous goods according to valid IMO, ADR rules as well as the Memorandum of understanding in the Baltic sea, LWHA. The storage of units containing dangerous goods is not allowed in the port area. Placards required for units transporting dangerous goods can be purchased from our offices.

Vehicles that carry dangerous goods are always lashed. This means units must be equipped with the appropriate lashing points which shall be marked and on semi-trailers also the trailer hitch.

Closing times for units booked with dangerous goods are as follows. All DG cargo must be booked well in advance with all the required documents sent to us. Web bookings are complete and confirmed only when we have received the required documentation.
