Liberty Terminals and WSI of the Southeast have merged.

The new trade name will be Liberty Terminals.

WSI

WSI of the South East was established in Georgetown South Carolina in 1985 as a stevedoring, warehousing and trucking operation. WSI has since grown and expanded its operations to Charleston, Port Manatee, Tampa, and has several crews of ship's crane operators serving bulk vessels all throughout the east and gulf coasts, as well as the Caribbean.

WSI is known as one of the main break bulk operators in the Southeastern United States. WSI is able to handle all kinds of break bulk cargo from heavy lift cargoes, project cargoes, reefer cargoes, forest products, steel cargoes (Plates, beams, coils, and structures), yachts, paper, boxes, pallets etc. - You name it - WSI lifted it -.

The laborer and supervision have a long established relationship with the company. They are all skilled, experienced, flexible and committed to the safe and efficient handling of customer's cargo.

Liberty Terminals

Liberty Terminals LLC was established 3 years ago in connection with the takeover of the former East Coast Terminal in Savannah.

Liberty Terminals Savannah has been totally rebuilt and is now the newest and most modern multipurpose terminal in the Southeastern United States.

There are now 1300 feet of new berth with 90 feet of apron. The berth has been dredged to 38 feet at mean low water. Roll on Roll off facilities for both stern and quarter ramp vessels are available. Both dockside warehouses are being totally refurbished. The refurbishment of Warehouse 6 has included a new 18 feet wide loading dock, as well as total covered rail service into the warehouse to ensure all weather receiving and delivery of cargo.

Working with Liberty Terminals Savannah is a true One to One relationship (No Port Authority involved) and co-ordination is through one contact person.

The Terminal has obtained C-TPAT certification from US Customs and Border Protection. Liberty Terminals Savannah has a team of experienced, skilled and well educated supervisors and longshoremen who are able to handle all kinds of break bulk and project cargoes to the customers' satisfaction.
