Cross border special line small parcels are generally the logistics method used by e-commerce self delivery sellers. They are cheaper than international express delivery、 and faster and safer than postal parcels. However、 there are also differences in the service of special line packets. For example、 cross-border packets in TODROPSHIPPING also have registered mail and peace mail. Generally speaking、 the time limit of special line registered mail is a little faster than that of ordinary mail. At the same time、 registered mail can track packages、 while ordinary mail does not provide tracking service because its price is cheaper. Therefore、 not all cross-border special line logistics can be tracked、 depending on the service you choose.

When choosing American overseas warehouse、 we should first choose self operated warehouse、 because it is easier to operate、 affordable、 can actually manage goods、 truly understand the status of goods、 and has enough space.

Secondly、 if you choose another third party to act as an agent for the overseas warehouse、 acting as an agent for the overseas warehouse generally means that the third party acts as an agent for the overseas warehouse、 which is equivalent to an intermediary、 so the price is relatively high、 and there is no way to know the true situation.

If you think about it again、 the self operated overseas warehouse will be responsible for its own goods first、 while the agent's goods will be placed behind、 so the risk will be relatively high. Recommend the US self operated overseas warehouse of Todropshipping.
