Getting goods from Point A to B will require a Transport Company<\/strong>. There are several types of transportation options, which one do you need?<\/p>\n

The following will help you in understanding which type of Transport Company<\/strong> you need based on your shipping profile.<\/p>\n

First Step is to determine where you\u2019re shipping. This should be broken down in 5 categories:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A \u2013 Locally<\/p>\n

B \u2013 Regionally<\/p>\n

C \u2013 Nationally<\/p>\n

D \u2013 Cross Border (to and from the USA)<\/p>\n

E \u2013 Internationally<\/p>\n

Second step would be to identify what your shipping:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A \u2013 Documents<\/p>\n

B \u2013 Goods under 75 Kg<\/p>\n

C \u2013 Goods Under 500 Kg<\/p>\n

D \u2013 Goods Above 500 Kg<\/p>\n

E \u2013 Goods above 1000 Kg<\/p>\n

And lastly, determine the mode of Transportation you require:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A \u2013 Ground<\/p>\n

B \u2013 Air<\/p>\n

C \u2013 Ocean<\/p>\n

Based on these criteria, you may require more than one Transport Company<\/strong>; however, dealing directly with one or several, may be challenging if your volume does not afford you privileges with them. Transport Companies<\/strong> will favor clients with regular volumes. Those that do not ship daily or weekly will find themselves struggling for service and competitive pricing.<\/p>\n

You may even consider hiring an experienced Transportation Logistics Coordinator for your company, but this will not be a wise investment if your volumes do not support preferential service and pricing offered by the various Transport Companies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

There is a simple solution; Find an experienced Courier Consolidator. They have the volumes and relationships with all types of Transport Companies<\/strong>. Dealing with the right Consolidator will afford you the support you need while benefiting from their combined volumes. Your profits depend on it.<\/p>\n
