In some logistics transportation, the use of some special containers is a new logistics transportation mode. As one of the commonly used logistics transportation methods, what are the advantages of using non-standard special container transportation? Let me introduce it to you today.
The use of special container transportation is to assemble goods in large containers to facilitate the loading and unloading of large transportation machines, so as to better realize the "door-to-door" transportation of goods. A new, efficient and cost-effective transportation method.
1: High efficiency of transportation method
1) High loading and unloading power.
2) High utilization rate of transportation tools
3) High capital turnover rate.
4) Save the cost of packaging and transportation.
5) Improve the utilization rate of the warehouse.
In short, container transportation improves the efficiency of loading and unloading operations. Since the loading and unloading operations of containers are suitable for mechanization, the efficiency of loading and unloading operations has been greatly improved. At the same time, it greatly shortens the stay time of the container station (port), accelerates the turnover of vehicles and ships and the delivery of goods.
2. High efficiency of transportation mode
1) Simplify packaging and save a lot of packaging costs.
2) Reduce cargo damage and cargo difference and improve freight quality.
3) Reduce operating expenses and transportation costs. Cargo damage and cargo difference are greatly reduced, and cargo insurance premiums also decrease accordingly; after carrying out "door-to-door" transportation business, a lot of warehouse construction costs and warehouse operation costs can be saved.
This mode of transportation can better ensure the safety of cargo transportation. Container transportation greatly reduces the number of times of manual loading and unloading and handling in traditional transportation methods, which can avoid cargo damage, moisture damage, loss and other freight accidents caused by human and natural factors, and reduce economic losses
3: High collaboration of transportation mode
Container transportation involves a wide range of aspects, many links and great impact. It is a complex transportation system project. The container transportation system includes sea transportation, land transportation, air transportation, ports, freight stations, and units and departments such as customs, commodity inspection, ship agency companies, freight agency companies, etc. related to container transportation. If the cooperation is not appropriate, it will affect the function of the entire transportation system. If a certain link fails, it will inevitably affect the overall situation and even cause transportation production to stop and interrupt. Therefore, it is required to achieve a high degree of cooperation among all links and departments of the entire transportation system. At the same time, under this model, a good cooperative atmosphere among departments is promoted and mutual cooperation among departments is increased.
4: Multimodal transport of transport modes
Container transport simplifies freight operation procedures. After the goods are transported in containers, the container is used as the transport unit of the goods, which reduces the complicated operation links and simplifies the freight operation procedures.
Since container transport only needs to change containers when changing between different modes of transport, it is not necessary to move the goods in the container, which improves the efficiency of the changeover operation and is suitable for joint transportation between different modes of transport. When changing and transshipping, the customs and relevant regulatory units only need to seal or check the seals for transfer and release, thereby improving transportation efficiency.
In summary, container transport has the advantages of high efficiency, high benefit, high collaboration, and multimodal transport compared to traditional transport, and can better realize "door-to-door" logistics transportation.
