Main transportation modes

You will consider different transport modes depending on the size and nature of the consignment, length of the trip and urgency of the shipment. In many cases multimodal carriage is necessary, such as a combination of air, road, sea and rail. This multimodal transportation has been facilitated by the use of standardized containers, which permits quick and efficient transfer of cargo from one carrier type to another.

The four main transportation modes each have their advantages and disadvantages. Airfreight is by far the quickest but can be costly for large consignments. Road haulage can offer door-to-door service over short distances. Rail can carry freight on a regular schedule, fairly unaffected by road congestion or weather conditions. Ships have a very high pay load capacity and offer large-scale and low-cost transportation over long distances.

To improve efficiency and to reduce transportation costs, freight with the same destination is grouped or consolidated.

Intermodal transportation

Intermodal transport is the combination of at least two modes of transport – by road, rail, sea or air – in a single transport chain. A ship or aircraft cannot back up to a store door, factory of warehouse, nor can a railroad wagon, so a truck of trailer pocks up or delivers the freight of origin and destination. The use of interchangeable, unitized containers stimulates the easy flow of intermodal transport. Freight containers are locked and sealed at origin and the container are not disturbed until the seal is broken by the consignee when the freight is unloaded at the destination.

A common form of intermodal transport is unaccompanied delivery. The longest distance is covered by rail, whereas the distribution from the terminal to the final destination takes place by road. The lorry deposits the loading unit at the railway station and upon arrival by train the unit is picked up by a vehicle and travels to its final destination. In accompanied transport, entire lorries or articulated vehicles are transported by rail on special low-loader wagons. The drivers travel on the same train in a sleeping car.

We spread our growing freight load more efficiently when we use the traditional modes including rail, inland waterways and short-sea shipping transport.
