Special Logistics Services — AOG, Ship Spares & Courier
Special logistics covers shipments outside standard procedures — emergency and AOG freight, ship spares delivery to the vessel at port, and door-to-door courier up to 30 kg per carton. One coordinator from booking to delivery, a written logistics plan on inquiry.
- Emergency & AOG freight — worldwide, by air or road
- Ship spares — delivered directly to the vessel at port
- Courier up to 30 kg per carton — DHL, UPS, FedEx + local European couriers
Special logistics services from KG Cargo cover shipments that require urgent handling, precise timing or non-standard equipment — emergency freight at AOG (Aircraft on Ground), ship spares deliveries and courier shipments of one to three cartons, up to 30 kg each. Emergency air freight worldwide; deliveries across Europe and the Black Sea region. A written logistics plan on inquiry.
Time-Critical & Emergency Freight
When a production line stops or an AOG (Aircraft on Ground) situation arises, every hour matters. KG Cargo arranges emergency freight for factory-critical spare parts, medical supplies and industrial equipment — by air or road, airport-to-airport or door-to-door. Every cost is stated up front, with no hidden surcharges for urgent handling.
For AOG situations, KG Cargo looks for the first available routing across airlines and road carriers. For non-critical emergency freight, we compare departure options against your deadline.
Ship Spares Logistics
A vessel waiting at port incurs demurrage of $10,000 to $50,000 per day. We deliver spare parts directly to the vessel at port, coordinating urgent customs clearance and hand-over to the vessel agent under tight vessel schedules.
Customs for ship spares accepts a commercial or proforma invoice — warranty replacements and ship’s stores often travel on a proforma. For full details, see our dedicated Ship Spares Logistics page.
Courier up to 30 kg per Carton (Door-to-Door)
For shipments of one to three cartons, each up to 30 kg and around 60/60/40 cm, we provide door-to-door courier delivery across Europe and internationally. The total usually stays within 60–70 kg. We work through direct contracts with DHL, UPS and FedEx, plus a network of local European couriers with strong regional coverage. The service is for businesses that need to send samples, documents, spare parts or small commercial goods quickly and reliably, without the complexity of full freight procedures.
Through volume contracts with DHL, UPS and FedEx we offer consolidated billing and one contact across all carriers. Shipments are tracked end-to-end. Customs documentation for non-EU consignments is handled by our team. Transit depends on the service: express takes 1–2 working days, economy 2–4, and a local courier outside DHL, UPS and FedEx 2–8 working days.
Small shipments travel two ways, and the cargo type decides as much as the weight. Our guide to small shipments to and from Bulgaria sets out what a courier network carries and when forwarding fits.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can KG Cargo arrange an emergency shipment?
KG Cargo issues a preliminary logistics plan and quote on inquiry. Actual departure depends on carrier schedule availability and cargo readiness at origin. For AOG, the fastest options are usually Next Flight Out (NFO) or an on-board courier (OBC).
Which courier companies does KG Cargo work with for door-to-door delivery?
KG Cargo holds volume contracts with DHL, UPS and FedEx, plus partnerships with several regional European courier operators. We select the most cost-effective option per shipment — based on weight, destination and urgency — so you don’t manage multiple carrier accounts.
What types of cargo qualify as special logistics?
Special logistics applies to shipments that cannot follow standard freight procedures due to urgency, equipment requirements or documentation complexity. This includes AOG spare parts, production-critical components, ship spares requiring port delivery, temperature-sensitive samples, exhibition goods under ATA Carnet, and small commercial consignments requiring express door-to-door service.
Does KG Cargo handle customs clearance for special logistics shipments?
Yes. Customs clearance for special shipments is coordinated through our customs processing service — temporary import, ATA Carnet and bonded warehouse where needed. For courier consignments, documentation for non-EU cross-border shipments is included. A commercial or proforma invoice is required depending on the nature of the goods.
What is the coverage area for KG Cargo’s special logistics services?
KG Cargo arranges emergency air freight worldwide via air-carrier networks. Ship spares delivery is coordinated to ports in the region. Door-to-door courier covers the full EU and major international destinations via DHL, UPS, FedEx and local European partners.
