Import from China possibilities - choose the best transport for your business

Importing goods from China can be done in different ways, depending on the type of transport. Each option has its advantages and is suitable for different types of cargo and time requirements. We offer three main types of import from China: sea freight, air freight and rail freight, which differ in terms of cost, delivery speed and specifics of shipments.

Import from China by sea

Sea freight is the most popular method of importing from China, especially for large orders. It offers low transport costs per unit of goods. It is an ideal option for companies that import large quantities of products.

Air freight from China - speed and reliability

Air freight is the best choice for companies looking to import goods from China quickly. It is ideal for high-value shipments that need to arrive on time and for goods with a short shelf life.

Import from China by rail – best compromise

Rail freight is gaining popularity as a compromise between the speed of air freight and the cost of sea freight. It is an efficient option for companies that need faster delivery than by sea but want to avoid the high costs of air freight.

How to choose the best transport for import from China?

The decision on the type of transport depends on several key factors:

  • Size and weight of the cargo: Large and heavy loads are best transported by sea, while smaller, urgent orders can be transported by rail or air.
  • Delivery time: If time is of the essence, air freight is the best choice. For more flexible deadlines, consider sea or rail freight.
  • Cost: Sea freight is the cheapest option, while air freight is the most expensive. Rail is a compromise between the two.

Each of these options for importing from China has its own unique advantages. At ColliCare, we will help you choose the best logistics solution for your needs. Regardless of the mode of transport you choose, we provide full service, including preparing customs documentation, monitoring the shipment, and delivering the goods safely and on time.
