USA offers you the terminal of the future
At the multimodal transport centre Amsterdam Westpoint, USA can offer you all the transport and distribution facilities you would expect from a top European logistics centre.

USA leads the way in distribution
USA is a professional and dynamic stevedore company, with modern ideas when it comes to the transhipment, storage and transport of goods. USA offers you the terminal of the future. At the multimodal transport centre Amster-dam Westpoint, USA can offer you all the transport and distribution facilities you would expect from a top European logistics centre.

The conventional method of loading and discharging is still a substantial part of the stevedoring activities at the current terminals in the Suezhaven, Hornhaven and Vlothaven. For instance there are the ships with bales of cocoa still demanding considerable manual labour. But expertise and up-to-date equipment lead to surprisingly short discharging times.

USA's multipurpose terminal can handle any type of cargo, from bales to bundles, crates to cases, drums and barrels to pipes. And because your cargo movements to and from Europe need to be fast, USA offers you the best in storage and equipment plus the most experienced and committed staff to handle your cargo. Conventional or in bulk, containers or Ro/Ro.

Handling mixed cargo is one of the company's specialities. USA also offers modern warehouses facilities that satisfy every need for short and long term storage. More and more clients have discovered the USA terminals for product storage and logistics.

United Stevedores Amsterdam is ready to serve you. Night or day, day in, day out.

"The customer is king" is not a hollow phrase. Choose the stevedore who can 'race' your goods to destinations throughout Europe.
