Many people who are unfamiliar with international logistics
often think that exporting goods abroad
is particularly complicated
In fact, compared to domestic logistics
international logistics transport
simply involves more steps
Today, let’s discuss
the operation of international cargo transport
using Tongzhi International Logistics as an example
When you have transportation needs,
you should first contact our agent for a quote.
The basic elements required for quoting are six:
product name, packaging dimensions, weight, quantity
shipping method, destination country address
With complete information, the quote will be more accurate
If you are satisfied with the quote
you can send the goods to our warehouse
Before storage, we will conduct
unpacking verification of the goods
checking whether they match the quoted details
and ensuring there are no prohibited items
to guarantee smooth subsequent shipping
For goods that pass verification
we will measure the weight and packaging dimensions
and label them for storage registration
The billing weight will be based on the actual weight upon arrival
as international cargo transport
has weight limits for different channels
Therefore, during storage
if a single item is overweight
we will repack it into smaller boxes
to ensure smooth transportation
and where possible, we will consolidate shipments
to help save on shipping costs
For goods that have arrived at the warehouse
we will send the weight and dimensions
to the customer for confirmation
If there are any discrepancies
we will retest and take photos or videos
to send to the customer for re-confirmation
Once the customer confirms the data
our finance department will issue a freight invoice
After the customer completes the payment
we can print the shipping label
and arrange for shipment according to the booking date
Loading and Shipping
Generally, within the shipping schedule
the freight forwarding company will load the goods
that have been paid for
into containers according to specific rules and sequences
and transport them to the port for shipping
Door-to-Door Delivery
After the goods arrive at the port
if you choose the dual-clearance service
we will handle all backend processes, including customs clearance
pickup, trucking, and delivery.
Delivery usually occurs in two ways
small items via courier
oversized items via truck
The recipient only needs to wait for the delivery
In international logistics
air freight is fast but expensive
while sea freight is slower but cheaper
We can choose the appropriate channel
according to our needs
