What is the best shipping method for importing goods from China?

The most important factors to consider when selecting the best shipping method are the size & weight and the fragility of your goods. Larger and heavier shipments are usually more cost-effective to ship by sea freight, while smaller and lighter shipments may be better suited for air freight or courier services. Fragile or high-value goods may require special handling and packaging, which can affect the shipping method you choose.

Shipping by sea freight may have minimum volume requirements, such as a minimum weight or number of cubic meters, so it’s important to check with your shipping company or freight forwarder for any limitations.

Also, other key factors are the budget, the urgency of delivery, the destination, and the requirement of the destination country.

We also offer rail freight, road freight and multimodal options between China and Europe.

To determine the best way to ship your goods from China, we can help you estimate the shipping costs for different methods based on all the requirements of your shipment.
