Freight forwarding
Freight forwarding is a really many-sided and labor-intensive process. Many operations connected with transfer of goods on their way to the point of destination have one common object – to meet needs of the consigner and to deliver goods according to all desired conditions and requirements.
Step-by-step forwarding
The initial task of forwarding is preparation of the freight for transportation. After all arrangements and preparations the operations with the freight will proceed direct during its transportation. Cargo forwarding presupposes possible trans-shipments of the freight from one transport onto another in case of need. Moreover, the cargo can be stored at the connection points. Like any other type of transportation the freight forwarding includes execution of all necessary shipping documents.
Transport-forwarding service
The majority of forwarding companies offer a range of additional services. It is very convenient because you do not need to prepare all necessary shipping documents for transportation on you own strength. The freight forwarding includes making up of logistic schemes meeting all requirements of the client as well as rules of cargo transportations. Help in choosing of a cargo fastening method (for example fastening of a container) or means of transport can be also included into the forwarder’s services. At the same time, the forwarder takes up both choosing of a transport and preparation of appropriate shipping documents. Coordination of a shipment scheme and times when the next transports are brought up for loading is very convenient for planning of transportation terms and time required for cargo shipping. The consignor does not need to track the freight because the forwarder takes it up from the moment of signing of a contract to the moment of receipt of the freight by the recipient.
Container forwarding
Speaking about forwarding in the narrow sense, container forwarding means necessary processing of containers at the terminal, preparation of all the required shipping documents, inspection of cargo when it is required by a customs officer during customs formalities. Among other things, forwarding implies transportation of the forwarded containers from the port and finally their delivery to the recipient.
Transport forwarding
Forwarding by motor and railway transport is labor-intensive and arduous as well. This transportation service involves a lot of operations which have to meet one common goal. Transport forwarding includes initial preparation of the freight for departure and its following loading onto appropriate transport. The transport route may inquire reloading of the freight from one mode of transport onto another as well as its storage at the connection points.
