If you want to send international express at a low price、 it is recommended that you find a trusted international express agency when delivering goods. The freight is 30% to 50% off of the four major international express.

The methods for selecting four major international express agency companies are as follows:

1. Perfect warehousing management. The agent company must have professional warehouse management technology to handle countless parcels every day. This warehouse management includes package putting on the shelf、 storage、 off the shelf、 inspection points、 packaging、 shipping and other links. Every link requires preciseness and efficiency. It is not so simple to deliver goods on the same day.

2. Professional customer service. To put it bluntly、 it can provide you with effective international express channels、 package declaration value and other suggestions. Tariff has always been the most troublesome thing for international express delivery. If an agency cannot reduce tariffs to the greatest extent for customers、 it is not a qualified agency at all.

3. Remove excess packaging. The price of international express is proportional to the weight of the package and the volume. If you buy something on a treasure website、 as an aspiring shopper、 how can you buy only one or two? At this time、 it is particularly important to remove the redundant packaging.

4. In addition to the above services、 price is also very important. Before delivery、 be sure to ask clearly whether packaging fee、 handling fee、 fuel surcharge、 etc. are needed in addition to freight.

1. Continental shipment

The British special line package from the mainland、 known as the British general cargo special line、 is loaded and shipped from domestic airports such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen to the UK. After customs clearance、 it is delivered to Royal Mail for terminal delivery and can be delivered to the whole UK. Chinese Mainland strictly inspects sensitive goods、 so it is unable to deliver any sensitive goods. However、 the direct installation from inland has high installation efficiency、 fast delivery efficiency and better logistics timeliness.

2. Departure from Hong Kong

Hong Kong departure is known as the British special line electrified small bags. The goods are transferred from Shenzhen to Hong Kong、 loaded after arriving in Hong Kong for departure to Britain、 and delivered to Royal Mail for terminal delivery after arriving in Britain. When goods are transferred to the UK、 we can take advantage of Hong Kong's relatively loose export policy to deliver some sensitive goods、 such as items with batteries、 liquids、 cosmetics、 etc.

According to the form and packaging of goods、 the maritime transport goods are divided into three categories: liquid goods、 dry bulk goods and general cargo. The three categories of goods are divided as follows:

① Liquid cargo: petroleum、 product oil、 liquefied gas、 liquid chemicals and other liquid cargo.

② Dry bulk cargo: various primary products and raw materials. Generally、 dry bulk cargo can be divided into bulk cargo and small bulk cargo according to the size of transportation batch. Bulk cargo mainly includes coal、 metal ore、 grain、 etc; Small batch bulk cargo includes steel、 wood、 fertilizer、 cement、 etc.

③ General cargo: mainly including electromechanical equipment、 chemical industry、 light industry medicine and other industrial finished products、 agricultural、 animal husbandry and fishery products. These goods are generally consigned in the form of "pieces"、 "boxes" and "bundles"、 including packaged goods、 unpacked goods or non packaged goods、 and unitized goods.

Air transport aviation:

Advantages: It takes three to four days to get to the destination airport. Disadvantages: high cost、 no way to fly a single overweight and oversized item、 and no delivery of liquids and explosives.

Ocean sea Shipping: Advantages: products with low cost and cannot be transported by air can basically be transported. Disadvantages: It takes a long time to sign for receipt、 and it usually takes one month in Europe、 America and other remote regions.

In fact、 there is no conflict between the two. Most big e-commerce companies maximize their profits by taking advantage of both sides.
