Recently, there has been a shortage of shipping containers in China. This leads to the fact that rail and sea deliveries of goods have become difficult.
Why should we give preference to automobile cargo transportation from China now?
Earlier, Asia Import Group reported that due to this problem, delays in trains leaving railway stations in China heading towards Moscow and Yekaterinburg may be two to three weeks.
In addition, the shortage of containers has led to an increase in the cost of transporting goods by rail and by sea.
In this situation, it makes sense to pay attention to road transport from China. Transportation of goods by car does not rise in price as rapidly as shipping by water and by rail. Although there is a small chance that tariffs for such transportation may also begin to rise due to increased demand for them against the background of an unstable situation with sea and rail shipments.
It is worth noting that the timing of the automobile movement of goods does not fluctuate so much. They can range from 10 days to 25 days, depending on the starting and ending points, as well as whether the bulk shipments are sent or not.
