How do you ship your screw barrels to your customers?
This is a question we frequently receive from our customers.
As a plastic person, we know screw barrels are heavy, some are even LONG, which is too long for regular airplanes.
For some, they're even not able to go into the cargo plane. In that case, vessel is the only choice.
For most screw barrels, they're shipped out
1) by air: IF the customer has a tight schedule.
2) by rail: this works for European customers only. Rail transportation is reliable and less expensive than air freight.
3) by sea: IF the time is enough. The time on water is about 10~50 days. It's roughly 40 days to Europe and America. To Asian countries, few days are enough.
When sea freight is cheap itself, don't forget the destination expenses, this cost is a lot more than freight.
For the air shipment, there is a minimum chargeable weight, this varies from country to country, it can be 50KGS, it's also possible 100KGS.
When the goods are small and light, courier shipment can be a better option, such as FedEx, UPS, DHL, it's door-to-door service.
In a word, there are a dozen of things to be considered when making a shipment.
