The Ultimate Guide to Sea Freight Shipping
When it comes to global shipping, sea freight shipping stands out as the most economical choice for transporting large or heavy items over long distances. At Simpex, we understand that your B2B shipping needs vary, and we are here to provide the best sea freight services tailored to your requirements.
Why Opt for Sea Freight Shipping?
Sea freight shipping is particularly suitable for large or heavy consignments that do not require rapid delivery. The scheduling reliability of sea freight is comparable to air freight, making it a dependable choice for regular, scheduled deliveries.
If your priority is cost over speed this is likely your best option. However, the choice between less-than container load (LCL) and full container load (FCL) will depend on the size and type of your cargo.
Advantages of Sea Freight Shipping
- Cost-Effectiveness: Shipping by sea is significantly cheaper than air freight, making it ideal for large shipments.
- Reliability: Sea freight schedules are highly reliable, ensuring your goods arrive on time.
- Versatility: Suitable for various types of cargo, including bulky or oversized items.
For extremely large or heavy items that don’t fit in a TEU (Twenty-Foot Equivalent Unit), we offer alternative solutions such as break-bulk or roll-on/roll-off shipping.
We believe that excellent communication is key to successful shipping. We provide all necessary information proactively, ensuring you can focus on your core business while we handle the logistics.
