Best for: large or time-critical shipments
Two ways to ship, matched to your volume
Groupage (LTL)
Your cargo travels with other shipments in one truck, and you pay only for the space you use.

Best for: palletised goods, machinery, building materials and general cargo
Refrigerated truck
A refrigerated trailer keeps the cargo at a constant temperature along the whole route, chilled or frozen. The required temperature is agreed when you request a quote.

From Iran to Europe, Türkiye and the CIS
Road freight is the most flexible way to move cargo between Iran and its western and northern neighbours. Cargo is loaded at the shipper's factory or warehouse and travels to destination without being transshipped on the way. On the Europe and Türkiye routes a truck usually arrives sooner than a ship, and it is also economical for shipments smaller than a container.
The Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) comprises Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, with Turkmenistan as an associate member. SEAROAD carries export and import cargo on these routes and on the Europe and Türkiye routes, in both directions.
The Bazargan office on the Iran–Türkiye border and the Tabriz office follow up trucks at the point of entry and exit, and SEAROAD's representatives in Italy, Türkiye, Bulgaria, Azerbaijan and Georgia take delivery of cargo at origin.
Transport documents
As a carrier, SEAROAD Logistics issues the international road consignment note (CMR) itself. The transport contract and the transport document come from one company.
