Cargo (Consolidated Freight)
A commercial freight method for consolidated shipments from China, billed by actual weight or volume.
Term Definition
Cargo shipping refers to consolidated freight transport where multiple orders from different buyers are grouped into a single transport vehicle. Rates are calculated primarily per kilogram based on shipment density. This solution is widely utilized by businesses that require regular inventory restocks without booking a full container.
Usage Example
«An e-commerce seller dispatched a 45 kg batch of phone cases via road cargo freight directly to their regional distribution point.»
What we do
We handle road freight shipments from 20 kg, while packages under 20 kg are dispatched by post upon request.
