Before focusing on the company's offers, we give you the opportunity to learn about different types of international shipments and decide how profitable TSM solutions are.

International rail transportation

Rail transport can be used for international transportation. It is suitable for the delivery of bulky, heavy, oversized cargo, as well as raw materials of various types. The distances covered by the departures exceed 2000 km. Cargo travels in tanks, containers and freight cars.

The railway method is suitable for transportation of:

• food products;
• liquid and bulk cargo;
• raw materials;
• large structures;
• cargo requiring special conditions of transportation and storage.

A significant disadvantage of this method of delivery is that goods can only arrive in cities with a developed railway infrastructure. In small settlements, departures from train stations still have to be transported by road and require separate payment for the services, also covering the costs of loading / unloading.

In addition, in international transportation on railway routes, it is important to take into account the differences in the tracks of different countries. Often at the borders, goods have to be moved to other wagons. This increases the delivery time and cost.

Transportation by sea

Sea routes are also used by transport companies for international communication. This method is especially relevant for intercontinental shipments. Cargo is transported in containers on ships

Transportation of large shipments of goods, bulky structures and cargo requiring special attention is organized by sea. Most often, such transportation is carried out when sending products from China, Korea, Turkey and the USA.

But sea transportation takes a very long time and involves significant risks for cargo. Usually it is part of a multimodal delivery — motor transport takes the cargo out of the ports of departure and that causes significant additional costs.

Air cargo transportation

The fastest way of delivery is international air transportation. Flowers, medicines, documents, valuables, as well as animals are transported by air. However, not everything that you want to deliver urgently can be loaded on board. Transportation of jewelry, weapons and many other goods requires additional coordination services.

Air delivery to international destinations requires compliance with strict rules. There are restrictions on dimensions, hazard classes, as well as packaging and labeling requirements.

The advantages of international cargo transportation are the highest speed and maximum safety. Direct air service assumes that the goods will be delivered to the addressee no later than within 3 days. If reloading or the use of additional transport is required, then the time frame may exceed a week.

Time Saving Machine organizes the transportation of goods and parcels from Russia not only through the airports of Moscow and the Moscow region, but includes other regions of the country. The wide geography of delivery is the merit of a huge partner network of international carriers.

Multimodal transportation

Any international logistics transport company cannot exist without multimodal transportation schemes. Such schemes involve the use of several modes of transport. International routes are developed individually. The range of services includes not only transportation, but also customs clearance of goods.

Как формируется логистическая схема?

Логистические схемы международных перевозок формируются индивидуально для каждого заказчика. На выбор транспорта и маршрутов влияют следующие факторы:

• срочность;
• место растаможки;
• габариты товара.

Верно разработанная перевозчиком логистическая схема позволяет экономить на доставке грузов и избегать корректировок таможенных тарифов.
