Ocean freight
Even after the Pandemic, maritime transport is still the most economical means of transport for bulky or heavy cargo.
This is a very flexible means of transport since it is not necessary to hire a complete container, it can be transported from a cardboard box in consolidated service (LCL) with multiple container options for all types of goods (Refrigerated, General, liquids, Hazardous).
It allows the transport of goods that by their nature, the airplane does not accept, such as toxic substances, flammable liquids, and in general goods considered dangerous.
Oversized or very heavy cargo finds its ideal means of transport since it can be transported outside of containers.
It is also a very safe means of transport that offers many advantages.
Due to its flexibility and versatility, ocean freight transportation is the best way to move large volumes of goods in bulk or in containers among two geographically distant points.

Frequently Asked Questions
¿Do you still have open questions?
This depends on the type of freight that is contracted and the type of product that is transported. Example: 1 container of 40 ‘Shanghai – Manzanillo with a cost of USD $ 1500, can be hired by someone who transports dishwasher fibers with a value of USD $ 5000, can be hired by a customer that transports thousands of USB cables with a value USD $ 100,000.00. The freight is the same but the first customer pays a much higher freight percentage than the second.
You have to consider that at least you have to document 4 days before the departure date.
The advantage is that the cost is low. And the disadvantage is that it travels consolidated with another container, so the delivery can take from 2 to 4 days.
