PACKAGING AND FORWARDING ON CHARGES COLLECT
Freight, Forwarding and handling charges are determined and affected on the basis of the product fragility, weight and volume. This means packaging and forwarding charges can never be charged on a uniform basis. The reason being that packing differs from one kind of product to the other, or the size of the whole consignment.
However, prior to the shipment of the goods we do advise the freighting company to inform our customer in advance with respect to the good charges collect fee payable to the forwarding freighters. It is also important to note that conventionally and particularly when it comes to air freighting, the freight companies will always charge according to the weight or the volume thus whatever is greater between either the “weight or the volume” That is what will conventionally determine the airfreight charges. In addition to that, it is worth noting that when the weight goes beyond 100kg, the freight charges become more cost effective on the part of the importing body/ organization.
The method of freight entirely depends on the consignees' request. We are always able to organize for airfreight, sea freight and parcel post.The costs obviously depend on the weight/volume of the products ordered and the mode of transport and port of destination. Special airfreight rates are offered to consignments weighing more than 100kgs. In case of sea freight, it is quicker to book a space in a liner if goods can fill-up a full container load of either 20ft or 40ft. The dispatch of loose cargo cannot be guaranteed as such goods are subject to delay at the port of loading for undetermined periods, until they have been consolidated into a container load for delivery to one port of destination.Maximum post package is 10kgs and or 20kgs for some countries per box and overall measurement of 105 inches within an allowance of 36 inches. Shipping rates are provided on request. Rates may change without notice.
