In the process of exporting goods, the seaborne inquiry is a manipulation carried out by all the cargo owners. However, many cargo owners do not have a good understanding of the content of this part, so various problems are usually encountered in the process of essential manipulation. Originally, the owner's shipping inquiry is also a craft. Today, Suzhou Shunkun Freight Forwarding Co., Ltd. said for everyone, how to make an inquiry in detail.

In the process of seaborne inquiry, the demand pays attention to the detailed operation pace, first of all, to determine which methods should be used for shipping. Generally speaking, the shipping details of the goods may be divided into two types: LCL shipping and FCL shipping. Which one should be selected in detail depends on the number of goods and the size of the container. If the number of goods is small, it is usually LCL transportation. The quantity of goods is large and the whole container is cost-effective. China Shipping is usually transported more in full container, and there are more shipping in the LCL.
Secondly, in the process of inquiry, the owner should provide the freight forwarder with detailed loading location (or port of departure), delivery location (or destination port), item name, volume, weight and other related materials. In this way, it is easy to report accurate value to the freight forwarder. If the shipper removes the sea, it also needs the rest of the associated services. Fortunately, the inquiry has been proposed so as to prevent unnecessary difficulties in subsequent work.
In addition, during the inquiry process, the owner also needs to pay special attention to the following points:
1. There may be many shipping companies on a route that are planning. If the owner chooses the route, ask the freight forwarder whether there is a shipping company that has signed the treaty value on this route. A treaty value may reduce the cost of the owner.
2. If the owner has a stable long-term supply, then it is possible to sign the treaty value directly with the shipping company, that is to say, the shipping company will specify the freight forwarding. In this respect, there is a big discount on the freight rate, and in addition, it is manipulated. It is also simple to compare.
3. For the cost of the two parts of PSS and GRI, if the cargo owner's transportation intention is high, then it may be possible to negotiate with the shipping company or the freight forwarder to achieve a certain level of relief.
4. If the goods are on the US line, then the calculation of the basic freight rate is different. The freight rate on this route will be part of the FAK freight rate method, and some will be based on the product grade. method. This point requires unique attention, otherwise the difference in freight rates will be large.
