International cargo transportation: Japan

For the Russian Federation, Japan is an important trading partner, whose export share in some regions reaches 30% of the total number of goods imported from abroad. This is due to the high quality of Japanese products, combined with an acceptable cost of purchase and subsequent sale.

However, low price tags are provided only if the transportation is engaged in a logistics company with moderate pricing and high quality service. Otherwise, the final cost of goods will be too high or it is very likely that there will be problems in the transportation of goods from Japan to Russia — too long transportation, damage to products, etc. That will provoke additional monetary losses.

To prevent the implementation of such a scenario — please contact the logistics company "Express logistics". We are a well-known transport company that has been on the market for more than 17 years. We will be able to provide timely delivery of goods at inexpensive prices.

What types of vehicles are available for transportation from Japan to Russia and Europe?

"Express logistics" carries out transportation by all types of transport:

• sea routes (any ports — Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Niigata, Toyama, etc.). A pleasant option for the cost, allowing to carry large and bulky loads, but has a conditional drawback — cargo transportation by liners is not operational;
• airlines. The aircraft is a fast and reliable way to deliver a lot of goods in the shortest possible time, only the price of transportation of goods from Japan to Russia by air will be higher than by sea. That will suit not all.

If necessary, we can perform a combined transportation using cars, trains to pick up\deliver the goods to the port\airport or terminal. At the disposal of the company there are not only trucks, but also refrigerators designed to transport products that require special storage conditions (freezing) - cosmetics, medicines and food products.

FCL and LCL

These two terms refer to different types of container rentals. Abbreviations stand for:

• Full Container-Load (for transportation of large batches). The whole ("Full") container (or several — depends on the volume of production) is given to the goods of one customer;
• Less Container-Load (for transportation of small cargoes). A more economical option than FCL - only part of the container is rented instead of the whole. The remaining space is filled with the products of other customers. From that and the title includes the word "Less" - that is "buildable".

Since the company specializes in cargo transportation from Japan to Russia of any volume — we allow customers to choose the most optimal type of rental containers. And to transport small consignments without overpaying for renting the whole cargo container, most effectively investing money in transportation.

For reference — containers are 6 and 12 meters (20 and 40 feet). The six-meter containers can accommodate up to 11 Euro pallets (one size - 1.2x0.8 m), and in twelve-meter — to 25. If your shipment can take at least half of any of these containers — we recommend to give preference to FCL-lease. Then transportation will be considered effective, and investments — optimal. In addition, this way you will be able to protect your own cargo from the potentially negative impact of products belonging to other customers.

What documents will be required for transportation from Japan to Russia and Europe?
