It means an improved cargo security is also an important benefit of containerization.
Once the cargo is loaded into a container, it isn’t touched again until it reaches its
destination. The cargo is not visible to the casual viewer and thus is less likely to be stolen; the doors of the containers are sealed so that tampering is more evident. Some containers are fitted with electronic monitoring devices and can be remotely monitored for changes in air pressure, which happens when the doors are opened. This reduced the thefts that had long plagued the shipping industry.
Express transport is an activity coming from the messaging market. With the technological and industrial evolutions, customers’ requirements have developed the offer towards a faster delivery. So, the reduction of delivery deadlines has created this new type of market. Our company tries to differ by our down-market positioning (it is the cheapest a customer can get with decent delivery deadlines) including a more and more wide side services range. These side services include for example information feedbacks, proofs of delivery, insurances, custom clearances, the specific packaging or the value-added services such as the IT maintenance.
In the most basic terms, is the transport of goods that are sensitive to climate conditions. You want your produce fresh, your flowers blooming and your chocolate only melting in your mouth, right? Those items require special handling and storage during transport to maintain stable temperatures from dock to dock. When you have temperature sensitive products to move, you have to ensure unaffected delivery, delivery that we are aware and specialized with it. Standard shipments are perplexing enough with industry terminology and required documents, throw in items that need temperature protection and you get an additional checklist. When you work with freight service providers equipped to manage diverse temperature-controlled transportation, you can ship your perishable items safely with us as we know the peculiarities of this kind of transport.
We are referring to a load that exceeds the per-axle limits, but not the overall weight limits, is considered overweight. Examples of oversize/overweight loads include construction machines (cranes, front loaders, backhoes, etc.), pre-built homes, containers, construction elements (bridge beams, generators, windmill propellers, rocket stages, industrial equipment). In Romania, if the total dimensions (truckload) exceed 16.5 by 2.5 by 4 meters (54.1 ft × 8.2 ft × 13.1 ft) × 40 tones (39 long tons; 44 short tons) (or if it does not fit into a tilt truck), then a transport is considered out of gauge. A table of maximum dimensions and weight as well as best practices is available for European countries on the following industry resource site.[8] Transporting oversize loads requires, in some cases, escorts and police (for total weight of more than 80 tones (79 long tons; 88 short tons) or width over 5 meters (16 ft)). Also, a route survey is mandatory if the height is over 4.5 meters (15 ft). Romania has an active market for special transporters where, as mentioned above, companies such as Schnell Trans, deal with international transportation projects. Trailers suitable for special loads have different characteristics depending on the number of axles, height from the ground to the platform, extensions or load capacity. Each of these trucks can carry loads such as trams, energy transformers, construction machines, metallic structures or wooden boxes/crates.
