Hold Cleaning for Bulk Carriers: Why It Matters and How MarineSuperCargo Helps

Proper hold cleaning is critical for bulk carriers to safeguard cargo, comply with rules, and operate efficiently. Dirty or improperly cleaned cargo holds can lead to contamination, costly delays, cargo claims, and even vessel detentions. MarineSuperCargo.com changes the game by offering global, tech-enabled marine cleaning.

 

 

Why Expert Hold Cleaning Is Essential for Bulk Carriers

Hold cleaning isn’t a simple routine — it decides if a ship can load the next cargo, particularly when switching between different commodities like coal and grain. Regulatory codes, including IMSBC and MARPOL Annex V, mandate specific hold conditions before cargo is loaded.

Failure to meet these requirements can lead to:

• Time off-hire for the ship
• Forfeited charter deals
• Re-cleaning charges and fines at port
• Claims due to contaminated loads
