Staff at the Company's four offices in Durban, Johannesburg, Cape Town and Port Elizabeth undertake surveying services.

We attend to claims involving the majority of marine cargoes, including bagged agricultural products, steel, perishable products, electronic equipment, textiles and household & personal effects.

We attend to survey assignments involving major marine casualties, general cargo, goods in transit (hijacking and accidents), container theft and fraud.

Apart from the reactive service which we provide when a potential claim has already arisen, we have also developed a proactive service in the form of preshipment inspections, risk assessments and discharge/loading supervision.

Our service covers cargo carried by sea, road and air.

The Durban office is involved in all aspects of our work, from cargo inspections and surveys on sea, road, rail and air shipments to major marine casualties. The office is also available for risk analysis and control measures such as discharge and loading supervision and warehouse inspections.

The Johannesburg office specialises in cargo claims on air and sea freight as well as goods in transit. This office is also involved in investigating non-marine claims such as burglary and flood damage. Pre-shipment surveys of cargoes, as well as warehouse inspections, are also conducted.

Our Cape Town office also becomes involved in the full spectrum of claims and surveys and offers an in-house Master Mariner service, especially for major marine casualties.

The Port Elizabeth office provides surveying and investigative services involving general / containerised cargo and goods in transit. Other services include preshipment inspections, risk assessments and discharge / loading supervision.

Survey services are provided at market related rates, based on time accounted for and expenses.
