Cargo & Shipping - Buyers Guide

Shipping Services Introduction

Shipping services provide companies and consumers with products and services that they need in order to continue functioning in a prosperous manner. Consumers rely on shipping services for both exporting and receiving. The term shipping services generally refers to deliveries transported by land, sea or air. These three categories are the main shipping services categories.

Shipping services also include local, regional, national and international transportation. Prices range for each service, with ground (land) and local transportation being the most inexpensive of the services. Items that shipping services transport range from documents and household appliances, to cars and industrial machinery.

Many companies that offer shipping services maintain multiple international offices, in order to facilitate the handling of the products that require international shipping. This often creates an added value for their clients, as the products being shipped are handled by one consistent entity.

Thousands of shipping service companies transport goods throughout the world each year. Goods are moved via truck, train, plane and boat utilizing whichever combination is requested by the consumer or whichever mode is the most feasible for the service requested.

I immediately got a call from a moving company who was very professional. We've had good communication, the survey was punctual and they returned a quotation the following day as promised. So far, so good!
