The port of Aarhus has already established a position for itself as an important Baltic hub. Ocean-going container ships call at the port to load and unload cargos which are transported to or from Aarhus on feeder ships from various countries around the Baltic Sea.
The Port of Aarhus is a municipal self-governing port with a Board of Govenors consisting of the city council and with the Mayor of Aarhus acting as chairman of the board.
The port has its own towage, pilot and mooring service which is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The land areas and warehouses at the harbour are leased to port-related companies on short-term or long-term leases. The port is well-equipped with cranes for all purposes which are operated by the Port of Aarhus’s own crane operators who are hired out at an hourly rate.
