In this modern society the cargo transportation is the most used and handy service available for the clients.
Automobiles which are handled at many ports are usually carried out in many ships.
Bulk cargos such as salt, oil, tallow and scrap metal are being carried by heavy lifting equipment.
Project cargo and heavy lift cargo includes manufacturing equipment, AC, factory machines, generators these are overweighed cargo which is too big or too heavy to fit in to the ship portal – in that case you can choose the road transportation.
Methods of cargo transportation
The cargo shipment may involve trucking, railways, air delivery and water way shipment, when the empty containers are shipped then each unit is referred as cargo and when the goods are not stored in it, then the content are termed as containerized cargo.
The cargo transportation can be done through

The air cargo is broadly classified in to 3 types
Passenger aircraft – In this aircraft an extra space will be given for the freights apart from the passenger’s luggage space – this is also known as belly
Cargo aircraft – It carries the products on the main deck by the means of nose loading or side loading
Combi aircraft – The products are carried out on a main deck behind the passenger’s area.
Rail Freight - Most of the people use this as an efficient transportation for their products, but the rail freight may vary according to the locations.
The large shippers companies build the factory near to the rail lanes so that they can load or un-load the freights as they require.

Before the transportation the goods must be properly packed to avoid the losses hence look at the rules for the packing.
Simple Rules for Packing
The size of the packing material is the most important in the transportation because in case of any ships or fuel container the packing is not necessary because since it is a large equipment it will take months to be delivered but in case of any valuable goods then you need to close them tight using a wrapping machine and if you are not having wrapping machine then you can replace the cords with adhesive tape. If you want to transport any liquid goods then it is advisable to pack them in hermetic containers and seal them in polyethylene and separate it from inflexible sealing material. It is advisable to wrap them in greaseproof materials and seal with adhesive tape.
Just follow these simple rules to have perfect transportation without the damage.
