General Trader Clearance

General Trader Clearance

General consignments are sent via air freight for a variety of reasons:

  1. Size: Where the shipment is too large to go by courier
  2. Nature of cargo: Some goods are considered as ‘dangerous cargo’ and must therefore travel as air freight
  3. Packing requirements: Some consignments ( antiques, fragile items) require specialist packing
  4. Temperature: Some consignments ( perishables, medication, live cargo) require to be stored at certain temperatures
  5. Origin or destination point: Some do not offer courier flight facilities
  6. Urgency: Less urgent shipments can go by air freight at lower cost than being sent by courier.

Wholesalers importing and exporting and transit larger consignments of stock will often prefer to use sea/ocean freight. Slower than air freight, it is a lower cost option which is appropriate to many types of product.
