CONSOLIDATION
This is by far the most popular and cost-effective way to effect freight movement. It is
based on set flights during the course of the week where the allocation of space is pre-
booked with the nominated Airline. The freight charge is cheaper than on a direct Master
Air Waybill and it also means that flight details can be given quickly.
We facilitate our customers by making cargo consolidation by Air/Sea which includes the
transportation of cargo to the stuffing point, stuffing the cargo into the container,
processing shipping documents with customs, use of premium Air/Shipping lines and
make sure that the cargo will reach the respective destination well before the stipulated
time given by the reputed customer. We follow carefully all the important shipping
instructions given and take care of your cargo by warehousing it until the shipment will
be physically effected.
SEAFREIGHT
Sea freight is an eminent feature among the services offered by Benairs Logistics. Our
network of agents and logistics partners worldwide enable our clients to benefit from a
package tailored to their individual needs and time requirements. We excel in facilitating
our clients with the following Sea freight services: -
Worldwide export consolidation services.
Import de-consolidation services.
Handling FCL’s / LCL’s shipments to worldwide destinations.
FCL: If a shipper / importer has enough cargo to make either a 20ft or 40ft container
cost-effective, the product is sold at a container rate. The customer pays an agreed price
for the container, it is then totally at his discretion as to how much cargo is placed inside
the container-the more tonnage placed inside the container the lower the unit price.
LCL: This is the same type of product, as the consolidation service on airfreight where
there is not enough cargo for the shippers needs to warrant paying for a 20ft container. So
space is sold at the applicable weight / measure price to and from the major ports
throughout the world-this is effectively a groupage service.
As we work with all shipping lines, a detailed schedule of services can be provided which
highlights the frequency, transit time and real freight costs as they do vary considerably
for different lines within the same trade route.
