Cross Border Trucking
Experience seamless logistics between Malaysia and Singapore with our cross-border trucking services – StraitsDirect and StraitsConnect
Cross Border Trucking Services
When it comes to cross-border trucking (land freight) between Singapore and Malaysia, Halcon Primo Logistics (HPL) is the shipping company you need. We have the expertise and experience to handle all aspects of transportation, making the process seamless and hassle-free for your business.
At the heart of our cross-border logistics services via road, we specialise in managing both Less than Truckload (LTL) and Full Truckload (FTL) shipments. LTL refers to shipments that don’t require a full truck, allowing multiple shipments from various businesses to be consolidated into a single truck. Meanwhile, FTL shipments require a full truck to accommodate the entire load of a single business.
