Since 1898

We offer you flexible solutions at all times and for every challenge, positioning ourselves as your reliable and forward-thinking partner on all inland waterways. You can rely on our competence and trust our understanding of your individual requirements. With nearly 100 inland vessels, we are big enough to offer you reliability when conducting your transport orders in the waterway network.

Cargo vessels have been used as a mode of transport for thousands of years. In the 21st century, with increasingly crowded roads and rail networks, its share in the modal split is below 10 percent despite its evident free capacity – something which makes no ecological or economic sense.

With nearly 100 inland vessels, we undertake around 4000 transports annually, moving around 5 million tonnes per year.

Heavy goods transport with truck or ship?

Inland shipping is especially suited for the transport of oversized and heavy goods – it is not quite as fast as by truck, but  is more energy efficient and environmentally friendly in terms of CO2 emissions. Even when transshipment processes are necessary, only  short truck routes are subsequently used to the destination. For most oversized cargo, it is becoming increasingly  difficult to find roads and bridges which can bear the load. Approval processes are tedious and time-consuming. A clear advantage for inland shipping.

The project planning also covers  necessary consideration of  legal requirements in addition to logistical aspects. The processes developed by DTG form the basis for a disruption-free process.
