Be prepared to be flexible in terms of timeframe and other requirements, as sailing schedules are subject to change.&nbsp; The booking can always be changed or cancelled.&nbsp; Please feel free to contact us on 9854 3000 or send an email to <a href=\"mailto:enquiry@clarkeglobal.com.au\">enquiry@clarkeglobal.com.au<\/a> with any questions in relation to your export shipments and how these current delays may affect you.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vecteezy.com\/free-photos\">Free Stock photos by Vecteezy<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A number of factors, including the world-wide coronavirus pandemic, have created a huge demand for both shipping space and empty container availability in all international ports as well as having a major impact in Australia.
