Best transport between neighbours!


Best transport between neighbours, that’s what International Road Ferry B.V. stands for. By providing excellent service to our customers, we have become one of the largest trailer operators in the Netherlands and Great Britain.

  • Our mission

    Our mission is to be the provider of  ultimate solutions in haulage and forwarding for transport between Great Britain, the Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland.

  • Our vision

    We want to grow to continue to meet the growing demand of our customers for flexibility in unaccompanied and unconditioned transport to and from Great Britain.

  • USP

    Why is I.R.F. B.V. different…

    Our loyal customer base and our 25 years track record prove that we are specialists who deliver reliable performance. Short communication lines make doing business with us a pleasure.

  • Our promise

    We grew to be one of the larger “ferry-operators” in Full Loads service and Part Load service. We not only deliver your goods in time but do so with the service you expect. Dependable, flexible and with excellent customer care.

Our services

  • Full Load Service

    We handle all Full Trailer Loads (FTL), deliver within strict time frames when required and monitor the trailers continuously.

  • Part Load Service

    For many clients, a full load is not necessarily the optimum solution. International Road Ferry offers a daily service for ‘smaller’ shipments for both Westbound and Eastbound partloads

  • Warehousing

    With our warehouses in Rotterdam and Thetford we offer you the possibility to store your goods with us.

    We also provide cross docking services so your goods can be shipped immediately as outbound goods.

  • Transport UK – Switzerland

    Uniex Freight Services (UFS) became part of I.R.F. in 2016. UFS specialises in the transport of goods between the UK and Switzerland. Find out more about their services here.

  • Exhibition Transport Solutions

    Every exhibition has time slots that require a lot of extra attention from the planning department and the truck driver. I.R.F. has extensive experience in delivering goods on time when you’re building up your exhibition.
