Excellent question. We provide not just transportation, but a custom-engineered solution. The higher cost reflects professional lashing design for safety, specialized equipment for handling, and our end-to-end project management.
Our quote is an all-inclusive package, fundamentally different from container shipping, and typically covers the following core components:
1.Ocean freight: Calculated based on the space and weight (freight ton) your cargo occupies.
2.Port handling charges: The main cost driver-including dedicated berthing, crane or floating crane usage, professional lashing materials and labor, and stowage/separation materials.
3.Documentation and customs clearance fees.
4. Insurance: Highly recommended and can be listed separately.
