Getting to know the transport unit
The transportation of goods is divided into five categories:
Ground: The transportation time is less than the sea transportation, but it costs more and has a distance limit, and it is not economical at all for long distances.
Air: Air transportation is used for special and essential or high-value goods, which have a very small volume compared to their value, but have a high cost for transportation.
By sea: it is far more economical than land and air transportation, and it is available in three models of domestic and foreign ships and combined, and it is offered with different costs, but it takes longer than land and air transportation due to different stops at the ports of origin for loading. Or while on the way and that it is transported by sea and the speed of movement is slow, and conflicts with storms and ocean issues also slow down the work.

Procedures for transporting goods
Delivery of the cargo to the carrier
In the first stage of the goods transportation process, the dispatcher must deliver the cargo to the carrier. This carrier may also be a natural or legal person. Usually, the method of transporting goods at this stage is by land and heavy vehicles and trains are used. Of course, loading the cargo in the truck is not included in the transportation costs, and unloading it in the place where the export carrier is present is the same.
Based on the type of agreement between the buyer and the seller, the cargo is delivered to the truck and sent to the customs office of origin.
Customs clearance of export goods
Customs clearance is the second stage of goods transportation. Any shipment that is going to leave the country must go through several legal steps and be examined. To clear the goods from customs, you must first submit a structured application along with some required documents to the relevant authorities. These documents include documents related to the goods, documents related to the owner of the goods, and documents related to the representative of the owner of the goods. Usually, this work is done by companies that have valid customs certificates and act as customs intermediary companies.
loading goods
Another stage of goods transportation is the stage of loading the goods. This process includes all stages of moving and checking the goods from the time they arrive at the main warehouse to the time they are loaded. Therefore, various tasks need to be done by the relevant people. Of course, all these works must be planned in advance and are usually done by the freight forwarder. Then, after the necessary checks, the cargo will be prepared for loading on the transport vehicle.
Delivery of cargo
Now the desired cargo must be unloaded from the means of transport and transferred to the buyer's place. The person responsible for paying these costs must also be mentioned in the contract, and one of the buyer and seller parties will be responsible for it. After unloading the cargo from the international means of transport, the buyer's mover or a local transport company should transfer the desired goods to the warehouse. The cost of this final transfer will be borne by the buyer.
