We Offer A Diverse Range of Shipping Solutions
Shipping cost is one of the main costs of import. There are various transportation methods in international trade such as ship by express, air, sea, train, airfreight-to-door and seafreight-to-do. But which one is more cost and time saving, we can give you practical advice.
Ship by Courier
Courier is fast in time and high in price. Usually it used to send small volume and light weight items like documents and samples. Only orders with tight deadlines will be sent by international courier.
Ship by Air
Air freight is not as expensive as express shipping, but shorter shipping time than sea freight. For goods more than 21KG, it is recommended, and for customers who are convenient to clear customs and pick up the goods by themselves at airport.
Ship by Sea
Sea freight is the most economical, but the shipping time is longer, usually taking 30-50 days. Large volume and weight of goods often shipped via sea freight to reduce import costs. It can be transported as a whole container or a consolidated container.
Door to Door Delivery Solutions
Both air and sea freight can be delivered to your door by working with local logistics companies. The journey from the country of original to the country of destination is made by air or sea. Once in the destination country, the contracted logistics company will pick up the goods from the port or airport and deliver them to the address specified by the customer, usually to the customer’s warehouse or office.
The contracted logistics company can be a trucking company or local courier company like UPS, DHL, etc. While they charge different rates and have different timelines. The obvious advantages of airfreight-to-door and seafreight-to-door are good prices, no need for customs clearance by the customer, and import duties are included and get paid.
Local Truck Delivery
Trucking is less expensive and suitable for bulky and heavy cargo, but the time limit is longer than express delivery. In the United States, for example, depending on the distance between the east and west, trucking generally takes 5-10 days to complete delivery.
Local Express Delivery
Courier is faster than trucking, but more expensive, suitable for smaller volume and weight orders. Also the delivery time varies from state to state depending on the distance, generally taking 3-7 days. The US West receive the goods faster than the US East.
