Container shipping
Container shipments are those at which cargos are loaded in removable transport devices. They are referred to multimodal transportation, that is, to transportation of cargos using several modes of transport. Container shipments make it possible to use sea, rail and road transport, at that cargo does not need additional overtaking.
At the moment container rail transportation is considered to be the most convenient, general-purpose and economical way of cargo transportation. Each container has an identification number. Each container is sealed with an individual seal. This provides for guarantee of the cargo’s integrity as it is necessary to break the seal in order to open the container. Identification number of the container allows you to control its transferal. Basically your cargo is transported in a sealed and numbered “safe box” until it gets safely and intact to the recipient.
