PortShuttle as an organizer in the port of Rotterdam

Since our founding in 2015, PortShuttle Rotterdam has been committed to optimizing rail logistics within the port of Rotterdam. As a neutral entity in the logistics chain, our mission is to enhance intermodal rail solutions, making container transport more efficient, sustainable, and reliable for all stakeholders. What began with a single train in 2015 has since then evolved into a key component of the port’s logistics network.

How we work

Every week, the port of Rotterdam serves as hub for numerous intermodal rail connections. Our solutions ensure fast, reliable, and cost-effective container movement to and from the port.

With our deep understanding of the port’s infrastructure and rail logistics, we continuously refine and enhance operations. Our goal is to optimize train and container handling and create a seamless logistics flow for all stakeholders.
