Determinants Of Cost & Choosing A Freight Fowarder by lorrin: 9:30am On Jun 02, 2015 |
It's difficult to give a precise indication of costs, but this page outlines some of the main influences of the costs of using a freight forwarder. Basic determinants of cost The five main factors that influence cost are: • mode of transport, eg airfreight can be significantly more expensive than transit by road, rail or ship • distance/destination - the farther your goods have to travel, or the more unusual the destination, the higher costs are likely to be • weight and volume - charges are usually based on the weight of goods, but calculation switches to volume above a certain threshold (one cubic metre per tonne for shipping, three for road, and six for air) • value - in some instances, such as earthenware and woollen textiles, charges are calculated on the basis of goods' value per tonne • the type of contract you have with the freight forwarder - while most forwarders usually charge per shipment, some will agree an annual service contract, so you should weigh up the costs and benefits of each type.
