China Fcl Railway Shipping: an efficient and convenient logistics method
With the acceleration of global economic integration and the deepening of the "Belt and Road" initiative, trade between China and Europe and countries along the route has become increasingly frequent. As an important logistics method, rail transport plays an increasingly important role in China Fcl Railway Shipping field due to its unique advantages.
1. Advantages of China Fcl Railway Shipping
Fast transportation speed: Compared with traditional sea transportation, rail transportation has stronger timeliness and can greatly shorten the transportation time of goods. For example, the opening of the China-Europe Express has shortened the transportation time of goods from China to Europe from the original 30-40 days by sea to about 10-15 days, which is very attractive for some goods with high timeliness requirements, such as electronic products, auto parts, etc.
High transportation safety: Railway transportation adopts a special container transportation method, and the vibration and bumps of the goods during transportation are relatively small, which can effectively reduce the risk of damage and loss of goods. At the same time, railway transportation also has high safety and stability, and is less affected by natural factors, which can ensure that the goods arrive at the destination on time and safely.
Strong carrying capacity: Railway trains have a large traction weight and can transport a large amount of goods at a time, which is suitable for the transportation needs of large quantities of goods. For some manufacturing companies, they can use full-container railway transportation to quickly and efficiently transport a large amount of raw materials or finished products to the destination, reducing transportation costs.
Significant environmental benefits: Railway transportation has low unit energy consumption and relatively low emissions of pollutants such as carbon dioxide, which meets the requirements of today's society for environmental protection and is a green and low-carbon logistics and transportation method.
2. China Fcl Railway Shipping routes and networks
China-Europe Express: China-Europe Express is an important railway transportation channel between China and Europe, connecting many Chinese cities with major cities in Germany, Poland, Russia and other European countries, forming a number of representative train routes such as Chengdu-Europe Express, Chongqing-Xinjiang-Europe, Zhengzhou-Xinjiang-Europe, etc., providing a convenient and efficient logistics channel for trade between China and Europe.
Domestic railway transportation network: China's domestic railway transportation network is also very developed, covering all provinces and cities across the country. Through the connection with international railway transportation lines such as the China-Europe Express, it can realize the rapid allocation and transportation of goods across the country, transport all kinds of Chinese goods to border ports, and then send them to Europe and other countries and regions.
3. The operation process of China Fcl Railway Shipping
Booking: The shipper or freight forwarding company reserves railway containers and wagons from the railway transportation company or the relevant train operation platform according to the transportation needs of the goods, and provides relevant information of the goods, such as name, weight, volume, destination, etc.
Cargo preparation and packing: The shipper prepares the goods according to the requirements of railway transportation and loads the goods into the railway container to ensure that the loading of the goods complies with the safety transportation specifications, and fills in the corresponding packing list and cargo transportation documents.
Customs declaration and commodity inspection: For export goods, it is necessary to go through the corresponding export customs declaration and commodity inspection procedures, declare the relevant information of the goods to the customs, and submit documents such as customs declaration, invoice, packing list, etc., which can be released only after being reviewed by the customs and inspected and qualified by the inspection and quarantine agency.
Shipping and transportation tracking: Railway transportation companies arrange the shipping time and train number of goods according to booking information and the actual situation of the goods, and transport the goods to the designated railway station for loading and shipment. During the transportation process, the shipper or freight forwarding company can understand the transportation location and status of the goods in real time through the information platform or related logistics tracking system provided by the railway transportation company, so as to adjust the transportation plan and arrange the receipt of goods in time.
