Why Choose RIM Cargo
Thousands of private clients, designers, and businesses rely on RIM Cargo as their Bali freight forwarder because we combine strong on-the-ground capability with international shipping know-how.
Expat-managed, internationally minded
Our leadership understands Balinese suppliers and international client expectations. That means clearer updates, stronger accountability, and fewer surprises when arranging international shipping from Bali.
135+ years of combined management experience
Our management team brings over 135 years of collective industry experience, covering international freight forwarding, documentation, export compliance, and end-to-end shipping coordination from Bali.
Global shipping network (145+ countries)
We are well known for the Bali to Australia shipping corridor, but our network supports international shipments worldwide, including major ports and door-to-door solutions where required.
Flexible freight options: LCL and FCL
Whether you are shipping a small volume or a full house fit-out, we provide the right container strategy:
-
LCL (Less than Container Load): pay only for the space you use
-
FCL (Full Container Load): 20ft, 40ft, and 40ft High Cube (40ft HC) options for larger shipments
Warehouse and transport built for export work
We operate a custom-built 1,000+ sqm warehouse in Bali designed to manage multiple container loadings efficiently. Supported by our own specialist trucks, we can collect goods from suppliers, keep items dry and organised, and prepare shipments professionally before export.
Professional packing and crating
Balinese items can be fragile or irregular in shape, including stone pieces, rattan, timber furniture, wood carvings, glass, and décor. Our team uses export-grade packing and crating methods to reduce damage risk during sea freight or air freight transit.
Documentation handled correctly
We manage key shipping documents such as packing lists and Bills of Lading, and coordinate the information required for customs clearance to help avoid delays and compliance issues.
Australia shipping specialists (biosecurity awareness)
Australia has strict quarantine and import requirements. We help clients prepare cargo correctly to reduce the chance of inspections, re-treatment, and unexpected costs on arrival.
Beginner-friendly support
If you are shipping for the first time, we keep the process clear. Simple explanations, step-by-step guidance, and realistic timelines—so you always know what is happening and what comes next.
Competitive value through consolidation
By consolidating shipments and managing volume efficiently, we aim to keep Bali sea freight costs competitive while maintaining proper handling standards.
LCL vs FCL Shipping from Bali (Simple Guide)
LCL (Less than Container Load)
Best for smaller shipments such as cartons, a few items, or mixed homewares. Your cargo shares container space with other shipments, and you pay based on volume.
FCL (Full Container Load)
Best for larger shipments or moving house. You use an entire container (20ft, 40ft, or 40ft High Cube), which is typically more secure and often faster through handling points.
Our Promise
At RIM Cargo, we treat every shipment with the care and attention we would expect for our own goods. You are not just booking freight—you are working with a Bali-based freight forwarding partner focused on getting your cargo packed, documented, and shipped correctly to its destination.
