GP refers to general purpose containers (without ventilation device). For example、 20GP represents a 20 foot general purpose container and 40GP represents a 40 foot general purpose container. It is also called 20 foot ordinary cabinet、 40 foot ordinary cabinet、 opposite to special cabinet.

First of all、 we need to know two concepts: billing weight unit、 first weight and additional weight

Billing weight unit: The international express industry generally takes 0.5KG (0.5kg) as a billing weight unit.

First weight and additional weight: the first 0.5KG is the first weight for international express delivery、 and every additional 0.5KG is an additional weight. Generally、 the cost of hoisting is higher than that of continuous hoisting.

There is one price between 0.5KG and 0.5KG、 which is the first weight price. The part exceeding 0.5KG will be charged according to the additional weight price

Therefore、 the actual freight is equal to the first weight price+additional weight price

When the actual weight of the goods to be delivered is greater than the volume weight、 the freight=first weight freight+(actual weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight

When the actual weight of the delivered goods is small but the volume is large、 the freight=the first freight+(volume weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight

Note that the freight here is only the basic freight、 not the final total cost、 and there may be other additional costs.

Packaging fee: Generally、 international express companies provide free packaging、 cartons、 bubbles and other packaging materials、 but many items、 such as clothing、 can be packaged without extra fine packaging、 but some express companies will charge a certain packaging fee for valuable and fragile items. Packaging costs are generally not included in the discount calculation.

Fuel surcharge: all major international express will be updated in real time according to market conditions. Please consult customer service for specific fees.

Other uncertain expenses: such as service fees in remote areas、 sensitive freight charges for sending batteries、 powders、 liquids、 food、 brands、 etc.、 which are mainly related to the items and regions you send.

Basically、 total cost=(freight+fuel surcharge) × Discount+packaging cost+other uncertain costs

In addition、 different countries and different logistics channels have different basic charging standards、 and the cost may also be affected by many factors such as flight outage. The specific charging standards can also be subject to the real-time quotation of the express company.

International air transport process: shipper orders - customer service specialist - power of attorney - booking space - warehouse entry notice - documents warehousing - goods warehousing - checking data - bill of lading confirmation - document preparation - customs declaration - customs pre recording - declaration - customs review - inspection - release - planking/packing - warehouse arrangement - loading - flight departure - en route tracking - arrival at the airport - customs clearance at the destination port - picking up goods - write off sheet return - shipper write off.

If you have sent international postal surface mail packages、 you will know that the advantage of surface mail lies in its wide coverage、 many corners can be sent、 but it can be said to be the slowest logistics、 many times it can not be tracked、 and remember that there is no bottom in the process center. The delivery process of registered mail is more clear、 and it will bear certain responsibility for loss and damage、 so it is faster and safer. In terms of cross-border special line logistics、 it is also of similar significance. For example、 TODROPSHIPPING、 which specializes in e-commerce special lines、 has 5-8 working days for registered express mail to arrive in the United States. At the same time、 tracking inspection is supported. In some countries、 it can be re dispatched twice、 while ordinary mail takes 8-10 working days. Not only can it not be tracked、 but also there is no return or compensation service. When you are in a hurry、 if you cannot find a piece、 you just wait. Of course、 the cost of ordinary mail will be cheaper than that of registration.

As long as it is not liquid、 dangerous goods、 or goods whose volume is not too long or too high、 they can generally be transported by air、 but the air transportation is to pick up goods at the airport、 while the international express delivery is to deliver goods directly to the door
