ABOUT
ROAD FREIGHT SHIPMENT
Land or “ground” shipping can be made by train or by truck. Shipment of cargo by trucks, directly from the shipper’s place to the destination, is known as a door-to-door shipment.
Ground transport is typically more affordable than air, but more expensive than the sea, especially in developing countries, where inland infrastructure may not be efficient.

Time to Delivery
Seasonal demand for commodities is also a key factor in calculating air freight rates. Because of changes in supply and demand, certain commodities become more expensive to ship during their peak seasons.
World Wide Service
Shipping is a global industry, but not every country uses the same currency. We will not discuss the monetary policies of governments, but currency exchange rates have a significant impact on air freight rates, too. Even though the U.S. Dollar is the most accepted currency for the international U.S.

In the simplest terms, ocean freight itself is a commodity. Similar to physical commodities, such as liquids, gels, and aerosol, when demand is higher than supply, the value of the commodity rises. As we have seen an instant increase in freight rates after Hanjin’s bankruptcy.
