Modes of Transportation
Charter Service
Estimate volume: Over 12 palettes
This method transports cargo by chartering an entire vehicle from a single company.
Because this eliminates the need to transshipment, it greatly reduces the risk of damage or loss.
Medium-lot Shipping (Mixed Loading)
Estimate volume: 2–12 palettes
This method transports a mix of cargo from several companies on a single truck. It maximizes truck capacity by utilizing empty space.
Other Transport Services
Railway transport of containers
We implement distribution of trucks and collection of cargo using our Freight Matching service network to support areas where railway transportation is difficult. We conduct main-line shipping using railways, transferring containers at depots near cargo stations.
Drayage (land transport of shipping containers)
We implement efficient drayage by matching shipping containers with trailers. This is accomplished through our holistic support of operations related to container logistics including everything from cargo handling (vanning/devanning) to temporary warehouse storage.

Air transportation of containers
This is an end-to-end transport service that takes care of everything from collection of cargo to preparation for air transportation, and even delivery, as quickly as in the same day. By pairing this with medium-lot mixed loading, we can provide efficient, economical transportation that doesn’t require chartering the whole vehicle.
