About us
One partner for your cargo's entire journey
EXPRESS FORWARDING SRL is a Romanian rail freight company. We combine running the rail transport with freight forwarding: we plan the route, provide the right wagons, prepare the documents and coordinate every stage, from loading to handover at the consignee.
We work with manufacturers, traders, port operators and logistics companies that need large volumes moved consistently, at predictable cost and with a far smaller carbon footprint than road transport.
- Licensed railway staff: train drivers, train managers, wagon inspectors
- Safety management system and dangerous goods procedures (RID)
- In-house dispatch team tracking every train along the whole route
