Does the packaging of the goods affect the freight?

The answer is definitely yes. Most of the international logistics are billed by actual weight and volume weight, and the cost of volume weight is generally higher, so the packaging of the goods is very important.

The recommendation is to grasp every bit of packaging space of the package, do not have too much protrusion, which will increase the volume; at the same time in the material of the package, choose lightweight, durable and strong materials, to reduce the overall weight. At the same time some unnecessary things also try not to put in the packaging to avoid adding too much weight.

The most important thing is to choose the right mode of transportation and find a reliable freight forwarding company, which can save shipping costs and make the timeliness more secure.
