Flatbed Trailer

Flatbed Trailer

Spain is part of the EU countries and makes optimum use of land and rail freight for imported goods coming in from other EU countries. Group age refers to the grouping together of several compatible consignments into a full trailer load. It is also known as consolidation and is more often than not the cheapest and efficient way to transport goods by land. Shipping companies also offer full load service by providing you with an empty trailer for collection and delivery. Other special requirements, such as the need for a curtain side or flatbed can be accommodated as well. A curtain side is a trailer with a roof and canvas sides. The canvass can be pulled back to facilitate loading and unloading. On the other hand, a flatbed is a trailer without sides or roof. It is used to move larger and heavier pieces of cargo. A crane is needed to load and unload the cargo. The land freight, whether truck or train, are efficient and most shippers can move their transport within one to two days throughout Europe.

Freight trains are used extensively to transport goods by land. These are a group of freight cars pulled by a locomotive on a railway. Trains are a practical means of land transport for bulk material, intermodal containers, or cargo requiring purpose-designed cars. Bulk cargo, such as salt, oil, tallow, and grain are goods that are not transported on pallets or regular containers. They are not handled as individual pieces and are packed in special tanks to contain them. There are dry bulk cargo and wet (liquid) bulk cargo, such as gasoline, oil and water. An intermodal container is a reusable transport and storage unit for moving products and raw materials between locations or countries. They come in different lengths, such as 10, 20 and 40-foot containers. Cranes are normally used in loading and unloading them. Containerization is one way to address transshipment costs. Transshipment is moving goods through intermediate destinations before finally reaching the final destination. The costs of this type of movement can be costly. Another alternative is to use a combination of different transportation modes to lower the transport costs, such as sea, land by truck and air. This method is known as transloading. Another possibility is to combine small shipments into a large shipment and divide them once they reach the destination. Most transshipment takes place in a place that facilitates the transfer of passengers and cargo between transport modes, such as train stations, airports, seaports and truck terminals. The parking lot is considered a hub for private transports. It should preferably take place in designated customs areas, to avoid inconvenient customs checks or duties.

Rail freight is convenient and fast but not as flexible as trucks. Trucks can drop partial cargoes along the route, making it simpler to share a truck. It can also bring the goods directly to the residence or drop-off point in case of port-to-door or door-to-door services. With globalization and increased specialization, manufacturing is moving further from the consumption areas, thus increasing the need for efficient transport facilities. The distance and nature of the cargo defines the mode of transport to be used. Budget constraints are also a consideration when transporting the cargo.

Air freight is normally used for products of high value requiring quick delivery, such as electronics, art work and fashion clothing. Some studies show that although less than one percent of world transport by volume is by airline, it amounts to about forty percent of the value.
