Express Vs. Cargo Package Clearance: What To Consider? by riturajpankaj(m): 1:58pm On Oct 20, 2021
When you’re importing goods from overseas, it’s important to understand the different types of clearance available. The most common option is called an “express package shipment,” and it offers a fast and easy way to clear your shipments with minimal risk. To help you decide whether express or cargo is right for you, we’ll cover what express and cargo packages are, their costs, the benefits of each type of clearance and which one to consider.

What Are Express And Cargo Package Clearance?

The biggest choice when sending a package internationally is between express and cargo shipping. Both have their benefits, but one may be better for you than the other depending on the situation.

If you are doing business with another country, the more you know about express vs. cargo package clearance, the better off your company will be. If you’re not familiar with the terms yet, both express and cargo package clearance refers to customs procedures for shipping goods internationally via air or sea. The main difference between express package clearance and conventional parcel shipping is that express services are often faster, more reliable, and more affordable. With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at how they differ from one another.

Express Package refers to a shipment that is transported via FedEx, UPS, DHL Air, or other express carriers. Express packages are shipped in time-sensitive situations when speed is of utmost importance. Depending on your supply chain needs, an express package can take anywhere from 1 day to 5 days to deliver the goods. The major difference between express shipments and regular ground shipments is that an express shipment travels by air while a regular shipment travels by ground. Cargo Packages are typically sent overseas in sea containers but can also be transported via truck or railcar.

The disadvantage of express package clearance over cargo clearance is that it does not allow you to choose your own shipping company unless you are willing to wait for longer.

What To Consider Between The Two?
Express or cargo clearance is the process of facilitating customs clearance in order to get your shipment delivered faster. But what are the major things to think about when choosing between express and cargo?

The first factor you should consider is price. Generally, express services tend to be more expensive than cargo services. The second thing you should look at is transit time. Cargo shipments can take up to several weeks while express shipments tend to take just a few days, depending on where the freight originates from and where it needs to be shipped off to.

When should you consider using both at the same time?

Shipping can be a daunting task, especially when you are dealing with lots of packages. When shipping multiple shipments at the same time, it is always advised to use both express and cargo shipment.
Some business owners think they have found a solution by creating separate accounts with express and cargo services. But this approach isn’t ideal because there are too many moving parts involved in this process (multiple companies). When one service fails or falls behind schedule, it can create chaos.

The Cost To Use Either Method Of Delivery

There is a considerable price difference between standard shipping and express shipping. This cost difference is enough to make some online shoppers think twice about paying for express delivery, especially if they are spending money on other things as well.

The cost of express delivery depends on how fast you need something to arrive. There are courier services that offer overnight delivery at a higher fee. These types of services are best suited for emergency situations that require a quick response time, such as when a patient’s health is at risk or if an important package needs to arrive quickly. The cost of shipping is generally calculated based on weight and size. Express mail tends to be more expensive because it uses premium services like overnight shipping or two-day deliveries.

Cargo delivery services have been around for a long time now. For many years, freight companies have been delivering cargo from one place to another using their own vehicles. The cost of delivering goods by cargo is much lower than other methods because the freight company only needs to pay the drivers and buy fuel for the vehicles instead of spending a lot on setting up offices and hiring more staff. Express is a fast way to ship, but it can be expensive. Cargo shipment is the best option when you need to send lots of packages at once, however it is much more cost effective with larger quantities. If you are shipping heavy or bulky items that are less than 150 pounds each, then cargo shipping would be your best bet.

As a business owner, you should always look for the best possible ways to get your shipment from one place to another. It’s hard to keep track of everything without a streamlined system in place. Fortunately, there are companies out there who specialize in this field – AWL India. There are several benefits to having a dedicated logistics provider like AWL India for your shipments. For starters, it allows you to answer questions and resolve problems at any time of the day. It also provides you with an opportunity to offer alternative solutions to customers if their problems cannot be solved right away. Lastly, it gives your company more control over the quality of work provided by freelancers or other companies that provide online customer service for you.
