Cargo delivery by cars is the most popular segment of cargo transportation. What is the reason for such a high demand for motor transport services? Let's consider a question in more detail.
Motor transport is the most convenient way to deliver goods around the city
Cars are maneuverable and fast, they are used on urban, intercity and regional routes, transporting a variety of types of cargo. There are practically no restrictions on delivery; you can load a machine or a batch of grocery goods, medicines or computers on board a truck.
We highlight the most important advantages that have :
- universality - the ability to transport any cargo: liquid, bulk, dangerous, oversized, etc .;
- affordable rates - if you need to deliver a small batch, a car is the best option;
- door-to-door delivery - there are roads everywhere, so the goods are delivered to the address;
- speed - the truck goes on the road immediately after placing the order.
These advantages include the mobility of vehicles, flexible logistics (the ability to plan several different routes), and control over the condition of the cargo and the car due to modern tracking systems (the dispatcher monitors the movement of the car in real time).
Particularly, road transport is in demand in urban and intercity delivery, in this case, a truck is the best and often the only option.
But the main advantage is the door-to-door delivery of goods. This format is most convenient - the transport company picks up the goods from the warehouse and delivers it to the recipient (at home, office or other warehouse). If other transport is used, then delivering the goods “door to door” will fail.
A wide selection of trucks for transportation of any kind of cargo
If you need to transport furniture, then arrange with an awning, and the cargo will be delivered to the destination in a short time. There is a need for transportation of semi-finished products? Then order a refrigerator - that’s the name of the special type of transport, in the van of which refrigeration equipment is installed, it maintains the desired temperature regime throughout the entire route.
Oversized cargo is usually delivered using low loader platforms. If the dimensions of an object exceed at least one dimensional parameter, a special designation (sign or light warning) must be set. By contacting the transport company, the client can order the execution of all documents that are required, including obtaining official permits for transportation.
Small and large consignments are transported by road. If you need to deliver bulky equipment, the size of which does not fit any of the machines, then the object is disassembled (if possible) and transported in parts. For transportation of small consignments, maneuverable trucks of the Gazelle type are used; they are ideally suited for working in the city.
For the transportation of goods of medium tonnage, machines with a carrying capacity of 3-3.5 tons are used. Airborne vehicles have higher lifting characteristics - up to 5.5 tons. If the transported object needs to be protected from rain and other climatic phenomena, the car is equipped with an awning.
Making an order for the transportation of goods is very simple, all you need is to contact the transport company, indicating the characteristics of the cargo and delivery address. The carrier will take care of all the work, picking up the car in accordance with the weight of the object and other basic parameters.
