MULTIMODAL FREIGHT FORWARDING
Multimodal freight forwarding involves
combination of different transport units, depending on type of cargo
and transport route, such as: carriage by road, sea, railway and air.
The staff of our company will execute an effective delivery of cargo on time, using any listed mode of transportation.
Multimodal freight forwarding
makes it possible to offer the most flexible and efficient choice of
routing and transport units, depending on what is most important for
cargo owner or consignee. The following shipping criteria may influence
the choice: service speed, transport costs, security of crossing a
certain country or its customs stations. Multimodal freight forwarding
allows to choose a combination which will meet all assigned tasks. For
example, cargo from Germany may be transported by road, in trucks, from
loading point in Germany to destination point in Russia. Yet, such
shipping may be executed as multimodal freight forwarding:
cargo is delivered to the nearest sea port, then containers are put on
board and shipped to St.-Petersburg, other Baltic port or Murmansk.
Thereafter, the freight is waggoned or collected in vehicles, and
forwarded to destination point. Railway in Russia is specially
efficient when one has to deliver cargo to remote areas, which motor
vehicles may not reach under certain weather conditions, e.g. regions
located to the east after Ural, Siberia and Far East.
