For clients looking to transfer only personal effects and household goods, a full container or less than container load (LCL) can be used. For a very large quantity of personal goods, a 20 ft or 40ft container may be the best option. For clients with less cargo, LCL is an affordable and efficient option that allows multiple people to share a single container. With this option, the goods need to be packed and palletized. Additionally, the client must submit a packing list and include the dimensions and weight of each item.
With container and LCL shipping, the client must load the personal effects into the container themselves. This is a very affordable option, as you will not have to pay someone to load your cargo. You should remember that to load the container, a tractor trailer must be able to enter the residential area, there must be sufficient parking and loading space for the truck with the container, and containers come in a chassis, which is about 4 feet above the ground and there is no ramp.
For international automobile shipping, clients can utilize roll-on/roll-off (RORO) services. Wheeled and self-propelled cars can be driven onto the vessel where they are fastened until their arrival in the destination country. There they can simply be driven off. RORO is typically cheaper, more efficient, and easier for clients transporting vehicles. However, you cannot transport personal effects in the automobiles with RORO services. If you want to transport personal effects with the automobile, a container is the way to go. with a container, clients can transport the personal effects in the same container as the car.
Some restrictions and regulations may apply on automobiles being shipped abroad. A few common restrictions include tariffs on vintage and classic cars, automobile age restrictions, and cleaning requirements. Client should also be aware that the automobile will loaded by crew in the warehouse, so if you choose to ship personal effects with the automobile in a container, the personal effects must be loaded by the shipper and the car will be loaded at the warehouse.
