Portugal–Ireland Freight, Container Shipping & Groupage Services
Hyland Shipping provides business-to-business freight services between Portugal and Ireland, supporting everything from single commercial pallets and groupage consignments to larger loads and container shipments.
Our dedicated Portugal freight team coordinates collection, transport and final delivery through an established network connecting key Portuguese commercial centres with businesses throughout Ireland.
Whether you are importing regular stock, moving a full container or sending a smaller pallet consignment, our team can identify the most suitable option for the size and requirements of your shipment.
Commercial freight services only. We do not transport personal effects or household removals.
We operate regular container services that allow multiple customers’ consignments to be consolidated within the same container. This gives businesses the flexibility to move anything from a single pallet to larger multi-pallet shipments without needing to book an entire container.
Our Portugal team coordinates collection from the supplier, consolidation through our Portuguese network and onward transport to Ireland, followed by nationwide commercial delivery.
This service is particularly suitable for:
Single and multi-pallet shipments
Regular supplier collections
Stock replenishment
Wine and beverage freight
Retail and wholesale goods
Larger groupage consignments
For customers moving higher volumes, we can also assess the most suitable container option based on the size, weight and frequency of the shipment.

Multi-pallet orders
Regular supplier collections
Stock replenishment

Larger shipments can be moved using part-load, full-load or container services depending on the requirement.
Freight from Ireland to Portugal

Once your goods are collected, they move through the relevant Italian depot and partner network before being transported to Dublin, where Hyland Shipping manages the Irish side of the journey.
From Dublin, we can arrange delivery to businesses throughout Ireland. Imported stock can also be transferred into our warehouse for pallet storage and released in stages when required.
