Advantage of direct transportation
Direct transportation – delivery of containers from point A to point B by one mode of transportation. The majority of direct shipments are made by rail from Asian countries to Russian regions – not only to Moscow and St. Petersburg – but also directly to cities and towns at the customers’ request.
The key advantage of direct cargo transportation is a precise schedule convenient for the customer, which does not depend on external conditions, as private flights have priority in passing control. Direct international shipping is often faster and more cost-effective than other methods of delivery to the exact destination.
Direct shipping is distinguished by:
- Safety – the process of cargo delivery is carried out by one type of transport without additional reloading and storage in warehouses, which excludes violation of cargo safety and allows to provide forwarding by SPIKO GROUP.
- Speed – direct connection allows you to calculate the entire route as accurately as possible and control the exit of transport on the voyage, and since there are no stops and congestion – to ensure maximum speed of delivery.
- Continuous monitoring – all containers involved in direct transportation are tracked around the clock.
- Minimal operations during transportation – the fewer modes of transport involved in transportation, the faster the goods arrive and the easier customs clearance.
- Benefit – direct transportation is most often up to 30% cheaper than multimodal flights.
