Step-by-Step Process For Container Shipping
Shipping goods in containers involves several essential steps to ensure a smooth and efficient process. Here’s what you can expect when you choose container shipping with BriCargo Group:
- Book and Prepare Your Shipment: Start by booking your shipment and deciding whether to load the container at a warehouse or have it delivered to your location. For vehicle shipments, ensure the car is fully owned and prepare the required documentation, such as a Bill of Sale, Commercial Invoice, and Bill of Lading.
- Load the Container: Choose a 20ft or 40ft container, depending on the size of your shipment. A 20ft container typically holds 1-2 cars, while a 40ft container can fit 2-3 cars. Make sure all personal belongings are removed from vehicles, as undisclosed items can result in fines.
- Ocean Shipping and Tracking: Once the container is packed, your goods will be shipped by ocean freight. You’ll receive a tracking number to monitor your shipment’s progress. There may be additional connections between ports depending on the destination.
- Customs Clearance and Delivery: Upon arrival, we’ll handle the customs clearance at the destination port. After clearing customs, we’ll arrange for delivery to the final destination. If needed, we can also assist with unloading and unpacking to ensure everything is handled smoothly.
