Key Services

Breakbulk cargo handling including the Port of Georgetown's own Intermodal Breakbulk Service (IBS). The port's innovative IBS lets shippers and consignees combine a multitude of transportation costs and functions -- stevedoring, storage, port handling, truck and/or rail, etc. -- as a single operation under one invoice.
