Types of road freight

Modern road transport is divided into 2 groups:

• 1. General. Delivery at a reasonable price. An order is made if there is a volume of cargo that can partially or 100% fill the body of the vehicle. General cargo transportation is ordered by medium and large companies to change the location of equipment, machine tools.
• 2. Prefabricated. Goods from multiple senders are consolidated in a warehouse. After that, loading is carried out on the car and sent to the destination (in one direction). The customer pays part of the volume. Consolidated trucking is ordered for small consignments without strict requirements for the urgency of transportation.

Special freight transportation is in demand for overall products. Specific requirements apply to the delivery of goods that need strict temperature conditions. Such a service will cost more.

Features of logistics

When ordering cargo transportation by road, an individual route is laid. This affects the final cost.

What factors are important for building logistics:

• type of cargo, storage features, lot size, dimensions of transported products;
• direction (distance, demand, possible delay factors);
• weather conditions, season;
• urgency;
• Extras.

Special Freight Demand for oversized products. Specific requirements apply to the delivery of goods that need strict temperature conditions. Such a service will cost more.
