Straight answers on routes, schedules, container choices, paperwork, and cost control for shipping from Australia to PNG. Small mistakes in paperwork and cut-off timing can cost more than freight.

Sea freight specialist focused on Australia–Papua New Guinea shipments. Clear, practical guidance on routes, timelines, documentation, and avoiding costly delays.
Hi, I’m Ryan Callaghan.
I work on sea freight movements from Australia to Papua New Guinea, with a focus on the things that actually decide whether cargo arrives smoothly or turns into a costly problem. My day-to-day experience covers container shipping and project-style movements, where planning, timing, and paperwork matter as much as the vessel schedule.
PNG isn’t “hard” when you understand the rhythm: which ports are best for different cargo types, how cut-off dates affect real departure times, what documentation is commonly requested, and where delays usually start. Most shipping issues I see come from small mistakes early on—wrong container choice, unclear cargo details, missing declarations, or unrealistic lead times.
On this site, I share practical notes and straight answers. Not theory. The goal is simple: help you ship with fewer surprises—by understanding routes, timelines, costs, and risks before your cargo hits the wharf.
If you’re planning a shipment and want to sense-check the basics—cargo type, timeline, port options, and common pitfalls—you’ll find this site useful.
