Within the Outer Hebrides supply network, Lochmaddy is the principal ferry port for North Uist and its crofting and fishing communities. Caledonian MacBrayne sails RoRo vessels from here to Uig on the Isle of Skye, the chain's main link to the mainland road network. Cargo amounts to accompanied vehicles, commercial lorries and rolling freight; there is no confirmed container service or permanent customs facility. Commercial vehicle space must be booked through the port office, underlining the harbour's role in island resupply rather than deep-sea trade. The A867 and A865 roads carry goods onward across North Uist and Benbecula. Containerised or project cargo is more sensibly routed through mainland ports such as Greenock or Grangemouth.
