Everything You Need to Know about the Shipment of Goods from China to UK
If we talk about the transit time taken for air cargo from China
to the UK, it would somewhere range from three to seven days.
If you, in any case, tend to prioritize low cost over quick transit
time, sea transportation would be the ideal choice. It is convenient for goods
that do not really need to reach their destination instantly.
When choosing sea freight, you are supposed to decide between Full
container load (FCL) and Less than a container load (LCL).
Ocean freight FCL- This means, your
goods fill-up the entire container. FCL basically helps you to save time and money
when you are shipping goods at a high volume.
Ocean freight LCL- Opposite to the FCL,
we have LCL. The term itself suggests that the goods do not fill the entire
container. However, LCL shipping tends to take a little more time to reach the
destination in comparison to the FCL.
If we talk about the Freight Forwarder
China to Italy cost, standard
air freight remains the cheapest and is a reasonable preferenceto ship goods
between about 200kilos to 500kilos. However, express air freight is quite
expensive. Bigger shipments have bigger discounts as well. The airfreight cost
for a shipment of 10kilos between these two countries would be around USD 65.47
It is suggested to go for air freight only in particular cases. For
instance, if there is not a big-budget restriction, or ifthe goods need to
reach the destination in a short period of time, such as food items or flowers,
among many other items.
The main Cargo airports in China are Beijing capital airport, Shanghai
Pudong International airport, Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport among
others.
Some of the major cargo airports inthe UK are London Heathrow, Manchester
Airport, and East Midlands Airport.
