What cargo transport services do we offer
Air transportation
The name Four Winds has become synonymous with a service that is timely, well-structured, integrated, and optimized. Thanks to dedicated resources and a strong and wide network, which makes transportation easy and hassle-free.
The air cargo service is usually used to transport goods weighing more than 150 pounds and cannot be delivered by courier. Air delivery can be used for domestic, local or international destinations. Domestic and local services usually take one or two days, although delays can sometimes occur due to adverse weather conditions.
Four Winds works hard to fully meet the needs of our customers, despite the difficulties. For this reason, we have carefully selected some of the most famous airlines. They facilitate delivery to and from Saudi Arabia to anywhere in the world.
Our services are individual, taking into account the different needs and terms of our customers. To do this, we choose the carrier that best suits your needs. In fact, you will not find too many companies involved in this, and this is exactly what sets us apart from other companies involved in air transportation. In addition, our knowledgeable team of logistics experts will inform you of what you can and cannot do, for example, they will tell you which items are legal and which are considered smuggled in a particular country.
Our team will also inform you about the allowable weight for the flight, which will save you a significant amount of your money, as well as save you from unnecessary trouble that you may encounter due to lack of knowledge. We pay close attention to each shipment to ensure there are no delays or losses due to negligence.
Sea cargo
Sea cargo is one of the most popular types of cargo transportation Saudi Arabia. There are three different ways to load your cargo into a shipping container at the port before delivery.
Live load
Direct loading of your cargo into a shipping container means that Four Winds Saudi Arabia will arrange delivery of an empty container to you, after which you yourself will begin loading the cargo into the container. You will have approximately two to three hours to load your cargo while the driver is waiting. After the container is loaded, it will be delivered to the port and sent directly to the ocean freighter.
Drop off
The drop off service is when we agree to deliver the transport container to you at the time of your choice, which gives you as much time as you think is necessary to load the cargo into the container. This differs from direct loading in that the driver will not wait in standby mode for container delivery after loading is completed.
Warehouse / Terminal Loading
This method of cargo service in Saudi Arabia is pretty simple. Four Winds organizes the loading of your cargo into a container at a terminal or port. You will be responsible for delivering your cargo to the port, but Four Winds will handle loading your cargo into the container for you.
Learn about our Speed Cargo Transport services
However, no cargo transportation Saudi Arabia would be complete without having a place to put these items somewhere, first. This is why it’s also important for all cargo shipping companies in Saudi Arabia to have good warehouses – and we have the best! First, you will find them all around the kingdom’s major cities – so you know your things will be kept nearby. Then, our warehouse can house any type of cargo. Whether it is general or perishable (hazardous too). We even have extra security for your valuables! There is an alarm system, firefighting equipment as well as a 24/7 security system.

To complement our warehousing and inventory management services, we formed Speed Cargo to provide local transportation support for shipment pick-ups and deliveries from/to any point in the kingdom. Now morphed into an entirely independent department with its own management and operation, Speed Cargo is able to handle deliveries for small and large shipments between the cities in the kingdom the next day. For more than 20 years, it has gone from strength-to-strength with the introduction of new coverage areas and shorter transit times as part of our expansion.
