Strategic Bonded Warehousing & Customs Storage Solutions
Our state-of-the-art bonded warehousing facilities are designed to meet the ever-evolving demands of cargo storage and logistics. With 3,500 dedicated pallet locations, we provide a secure, organized, and scalable solution for a wide range of goods. Enhancing our capabilities is an 800-square-meter bonded store, fully certified for SOS and OS operations, allowing businesses greater control over dutiable and in-transit cargo management.

Flexible Bonded Storage for Smarter Trade
Our bonded storage solutions empower businesses to strategically manage customs duties and VAT payments while maintaining operational efficiency. Whether deferring import duties while goods remain in South Africa or streamlining cross-border transit by paying customs fees at the final destination, our solutions help businesses optimize costs and ensure compliance.

These tailored options are especially beneficial for companies handling high-value, time-sensitive, or multi-destination shipments, enabling smoother trade operations across borders.

Customs-Certified Warehousing Options
We operate bonded warehouses in full compliance with the Customs and Excise Act, 1964, ensuring secure and legally compliant storage for a range of cargo types:

  • General Storage Warehouse – Licensed under Section 19, these warehouses accommodate dutiable imported goods intended for local distribution or further processing.
  • Customs Controlled Area (CCA) Warehouse – Situated within Special Economic Zones (SEZs) and designated by the Minister of Trade and Industry, these warehouses support industries operating in Customs-regulated areas.
  • Special Storage Warehouse – Designed for dutiable imports, duty-free exports, and second-hand vehicles for export, including tax-free retail stock consolidation and deconsolidation.

Regulatory Compliance & Clearance Requirements
For SOS warehouses handling second-hand vehicles, a Police Clearance Certificate is required. This must be submitted either at the time of application or upon importation and entry into the approved warehouse.

Strategically Positioned Warehousing Hubs
To enhance accessibility, efficiency, and supply chain fluidity, CWC Road Consolidators operates bonded warehousing facilities in two key logistics hubs, totaling 3,400 square meters under the roof:

📍 Pomona Freight Park – 154 Constantia Avenue, Pomona, Kempton Park, Gauteng
📍 BKB Complex – 100 Richard Carte Road, Mobeni East, Durban, KwaZulu-Natal

By combining strategic warehouse locations, advanced bonded storage solutions, and a strong regulatory framework, we help businesses navigate the complexities of import, export, and transit logistics with confidence.
