Ответы на частые вопросы
There is no minimum volume restriction. For small shipments, we offer Less than Container Load (LCL) service, where goods from different shippers are transported in one container. You only pay for the volume occupied by your cargo. If your cargo occupies more than 15-18 m³, it is usually more cost-effective to order a Full Container Load (FCL).
Container shipping is considered one of the safest methods of cargo delivery. The container is sealed in the presence of the sender and is only opened during customs inspection or upon delivery to the recipient. Each container has a unique number that allows you to track its movement. Additionally, we offer cargo insurance, which provides financial protection in case of unforeseen situations.
Delivery times depend on the chosen route:
- China Ports – Vladivostok: 7-10 days
- China Ports – Novorossiysk: 25-35 days
- China Ports – St. Petersburg: 37-50 days
After arrival at the port, you need to account for customs clearance time (2-5 days) and delivery to the final destination. For example, delivery from Vladivostok to Moscow by rail takes about 15-20 days.
For urgent shipments, we offer combined delivery schemes. For example, you can use sea delivery to Vladivostok, followed by air transportation to Moscow. It is also possible to arrange railway container delivery from some regions of China, which reduces transit time compared to sea transportation. Each case is considered individually – please contact our specialists to select the optimal solution.
The cost is formed from several components:
- Sea freight (depends on season, line congestion, container size)
- Loading and unloading operations at ports
- Customs clearance
- Delivery from port to final destination
- Additional services (insurance, certification, etc.)
Current market conditions, which can change significantly throughout the year, also affect the cost.
