October 6, 2016admin

 

When it comes to the handling your precious cargo you want to choose a freight forwarder who you can trust.

When you are choosing a freight forwarder you are choosing a partner. Someone who will work with you or your business to help it succeed. Choosing the right freight forwarder to support your transportation efforts can mean the difference between satisfied customers or unhappy ones. That is why it is so important to choose the right one for you.

Before choosing a freight forwarder you will want to ensure you know everything about your cargo. This will help you choose the right freight forwarder for your needs

  • Where is my cargo coming from and where is it going? What is the origin address of my cargo and what is the final destination?
  • How large is my cargo? What is the size/weight/dimension of my cargo?
  • How will my cargo need to be packed? Will I need additional packing services?
  • What mode of service do I need? Do I need port to port, port to door or door to door service?
  • Is my cargo considered hazardous/ do I need any special licenses to ship my cargo?
