International Courier Services, also known as ocean freight, is one of the longest established forms of transporting goods internationally. It’s also one of the most economical. While air freight is still favored for most time-sensitive shipments, sea freight remains a vital component of any international logistics network and it is still the first choice for many shippers looking to send cargo cost-effectively.
Up until recently, there was little visibility of sea freight services in the US and the industry was typically associated with larger export companies rather than SMEs and private individuals. You therefore might not immediately consider sea freight as an option for shipping your goods.
Nevertheless, whether you’re exporting for commercial reasons or you’re relocating to another country and need to ship personal effects, sending your goods via sea freight could save you a lot of money. With our LCL (less than container load) services, you needn’t have enough cargo to fill a whole container in order to get a Low Cost Package Shipping, while we also offer fantastic rates for FCL (full container load) shipments.
