Coverage

Coverage and corridors.

Rwanda has no coastline, so nearly every import arrives on a truck that has already covered a thousand kilometres. These are the corridors we run, the borders we clear and the markets we reach.

Inside Rwanda

Every district in Rwanda

Kigali and the four provinces, including quarry, plant and project sites off the paved network. Where a site is not truck-accessible we say so at quotation stage rather than at the gate.

  • Kigali city and industrial zones
  • Provincial distribution centres
  • Quarry, mine and plant sites
  • Road and infrastructure project sites

Border posts

Border posts.

Knowing the post, its hours and its paperwork is most of what separates a two-day transit from a five-day one.

  • Gatuna / KatunaRwanda – Uganda
  • Kagitumba / Mirama HillsRwanda – Uganda
  • RusumoRwanda – Tanzania
  • La Corniche (Rubavu)Rwanda – DR Congo
  • Rusizi I & IIRwanda – DR Congo

Send us the load. We will send back the truck and the rate.

Cargo, weight, pickup, destination and the date. That is enough for a written quotation.
