Ports
Where we load
Four ports cover most exporters in Guangdong. Qinzhou is added when cargo moves through the Beibu Gulf.

Trucking & inland →Beibu Gulf · Western Land-Sea Corridor
A second exit from China, through the southwest
The Beibu Gulf corridor gives exporters in southwest China a route to the sea that does not cross the Pearl River Delta. Two things are usually confused, so we keep them apart:
- Qinzhou rail–sea (Western Land-Sea Corridor) — rail from the inland provinces to Qinzhou, then ocean. This is in regular commercial use and is what we quote for inland cargo.
- The Pinglu Canal — opened to navigation in September 2026 and in trial operation. Barge and lock capacity is still being proven, so routing through the canal is confirmed case by case.
For cargo that moves this way we check rail space, barge availability and lock scheduling before confirming a plan, and we say which legs are handled by us and which by a partner.
Inland barge service via the Pinglu Canal is under trial operation, subject to barge availability and lock scheduling, and confirmed case by case.
How a shipment runs with us
Inquiry
You send the origin, destination, cargo and readiness date. If a document is missing, we ask for it once, in the same reply.
Quotation
A written quotation within one business day: ocean freight, origin charges, exclusions, and the validity period.
Booking & documents
Space is confirmed, the export declaration is filed, and the packing list and bill of lading instructions are checked before submission.
Loading & sailing
Container is loaded, sealed and railed or trucked to the terminal. You get the container number, the sailing and the estimated arrival.
Why customers keep the next shipment with us
Answer inside one business day
Quotations are prepared by the person who will handle the file — not by a queue. Requests that arrive before 15:00 GMT+8 are usually answered the same day.
Documents checked before filing
The export declaration, packing list and bill of lading instructions are checked against the commercial invoice before submission, because a wrong HS code or weight costs more to fix than to prevent.
One file, one contact
Booking, documents, trucking and terminal issues stay with the same person, so nothing is lost between departments.
Plain answers about what we cannot do
If a routing, a cargo type or a deadline is outside what we can execute, we say so in the first reply instead of taking the booking and finding out later.
Questions we are asked before the first booking
How fast will I get a quotation?
Uni-Link replies to quote requests within one business day. If the routing needs a rate we do not hold, we say so and give you the date the answer will come.
Is there a minimum shipment size?
There is no minimum quantity. A single pallet can move as LCL, and a single carton can be consolidated. Quantity affects the unit price, not whether we accept the booking.
Can you work from a port other than Yantian, Shekou, Nansha and Huangpu?
Yes, on request. Those four ports are where we operate routinely; other Chinese ports, including Qinzhou in the Beibu Gulf, are arranged case by case after we check the local customs, trucking and feeder options.
Which charges are included in your quotation?
Our quotation lists ocean freight and origin charges separately, and states clearly what is excluded — normally destination terminal handling, destination customs clearance, delivery and demurrage. Excluded items are named in writing so there is no surprise invoice later.
How do you handle cargo when something goes wrong at the terminal?
You get one contact who owns the file. When a container is rolled, held by customs or short-shipped, we tell you the same day with the options and the cost of each, rather than waiting for the next scheduled update.
Do you arrange door-to-door delivery or DDP?
Port-to-port shipment with customs clearance and trucking in China is what we run ourselves. Where destination delivery is needed, we say in writing which part is handled by us and which by a partner agent, and price the two parts separately.
