About us

We connect truck, rail and inland waterway vessels
into seamless transport chains.

From the ramp, via terminals and seaports, all the way into the European hinterland, your transports are planned and managed end-to-end by one partner – delivering Europe-wide solutions that avoid interface bottlenecks and keep your cargo moving with reliable transit times and transparent status updates.

Three carriers, one continuous transport chain:

      • Truck: flexible in pre- and on-carriage, ideal for time-critical routes
      • Rail: high capacity, well scheduled and CO₂-efficient
      • Inland vessel: sustainable, high-performance link to the major seaports

A full range of containers – from standard to special

ECO Containertrans covers the full spectrum of container logistics – from standard boxes to highly specialized equipment, tailored to your cargo.

This includes:

  • Standard and high-cube containers for industrial and consumer goods

  • Open-top and flat-rack containers for bulky or over-height loads

  • Reefer containers for temperature-sensitive goods such as food or chemical products

  • Tank containers for liquids and chemicals

Loading at the ramp, in the terminal by crane or via special project solutions – we align setup and equipment with your product, route and time window instead of forcing you into rigid standards.

Five locations,
one quality promise

With branches in Bremen, Hamburg, Rheinberg, Mannheim and Weil am Rhein, we are located right on major transport corridors and logistics hubs, enabling short distances, quick decisions and direct access to ports, terminals and customers.

Whether it is a single container or a large volume, every shipment receives the same priority: our teams develop suitable concepts and continuously monitor corridor conditions so that your container flows across Europe remain reliable.

Management with
a hands-on focus

ECO Containertrans GmbH is led by Michael Alker, Markus Gottselig and Marc Palma, who all bring many years of experience in container logistics, combined transport and international transport management. Their shared ambition is to be a flexible, customer-focused and future-proof partner for Europe-wide container transports – with the willingness to take unconventional routes when they offer the better solution.

Europe
in focus

We connect ports such as Hamburg, Bremerhaven, Rotterdam and Antwerp with key economic regions in the European hinterland – with the clear goal of creating robust connections that continue to perform reliably even in times of bottlenecks, corridor constraints or timetable changes.

Through established combined transport networks, gateway solutions and well-connected terminals, we create additional capacity, ease pressure on road corridors and make a measurable contribution to our customers’ climate and sustainability targets.
