Questions and Answers
2. What mode of transportation should you choose: sea, air, rail, or road?
The choice depends mainly on the delivery date, budget, type of cargo, and direction of transport. Sea freight is usually better suited for larger volumes, air freight for urgent deliveries, rail freight as a compromise between time and cost, and road freight for flexible door-to-door deliveries.
3. Can a freight forwarding company also handle customs clearance?
Yes, many freight forwarding companies also assist their clients with customs clearance for imports and exports. This allows transportation, documentation, and paperwork to be coordinated in one place, which simplifies the entire process.
4. What factors determine the cost of international shipping?
The price is influenced by factors such as the route, mode of transportation, weight and volume of the cargo, type of goods, delivery time, and the scope of additional services. The cost may also increase if the shipment requires warehousing, customs clearance, or domestic transportation to and from a port or terminal.
5. When is it a good idea to choose LCL groupage shipping?
LCL (less-than-container load) shipping is cost-effective when a company does not need an entire container. It is a good solution for smaller shipments, when cost optimization is a priority without having to reserve the entire cargo space.
6. What information should I provide for a shipping quote?
It is best to provide the loading and unloading locations, the type of goods, weight, volume, shipment date, and whether customs clearance will be required. The less the freight forwarder has to guess, the faster and more accurate the quote will be.
