That’s why we offer a comprehensive suite of logistics solutions designed to streamline your liquid bulk shipments and maximize your savings. Here are 5 effective strategies we can help you implement:
- Collaborative planning and consolidation: Early planning is essential for cost-effective liquid bulk shipping. Logistics experts work closely with clients to understand their specific needs, finalize order details, and schedule shipments well in advance. This approach enables the comparison of rates from various carriers specializing in liquid freight, securing the best deal for the product. Additionally, assistance is provided in consolidating smaller shipments into larger ones whenever possible, leveraging volume discounts offered by carriers.
- Packaging and filling optimization – Tailored Efficiency: Minimizing wasted space in tanks or containers remains crucial for cost savings in liquid bulk transport. Analysis of specific cargo is conducted to recommend the most appropriate containers or tanks, ensuring compatibility and maximizing space utilization. Exploration of options for lightweight, high-capacity containers or cleaning techniques that minimize residual product is also undertaken to further optimize shipment volume.
- Incoterms navigation for liquid bulk – Expert Guidance: Negotiating cost-effective international shipping arrangements for liquid bulk necessitates a nuanced understanding of Incoterms. Assistance is available in selecting the option that minimizes expenses. Depending on the specific liquid and regulations, guidance is provided on Incoterms that may shift responsibility for tasks like loading, unloading, or temperature control, potentially reducing overall costs.
- Exploring alternative transportation modes for liquids – Multimodal Expertise: A multimodal approach beyond traditional methods is offered. Experts analyze the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of alternative modes for specific liquid cargo and destinations. This may include ocean tankers for long-distance, large-volume shipments, or inland waterways and pipelines for specific types of liquids. Efforts are made to find the most cost-efficient and compliant solution for clients’ needs.
