How to measure the size of goods in international logistics, shipping prices have risen across the board!

The size of the goods in your eyes: Why are the measured data different, and the size will be different after delivery Several reasons for the difference in size after the goods are put into the warehouse: 1: After loading, the box expands; 2: Increase the height of the lower and upper lids of the box; 3: Take the maximum point vertically for the bump; 4: Domestic transportation, the boxes are squeezed to protrude; 5: The decimal point is directly rounded to integer billing (line rules); 6: You can ask to take pictures to measure the size, confirm and then operate; Many freight forwarders now also use measuring equipment, and the machine measurement is also in accordance with international measurement standards, resulting in different sizes from those before shipment. About 100 of them were positive, with a positive rate of almost 67%. About 80% of the positive people were in Southern California, and the positive diagnosis rate has been rising day by day. In the future, the speed of container pick-up will be significantly slowed down, a large number of drivers will be recruited, and the number of trucks that come to pick up the container will be reduced by half every day; bulk cargo transfer and card dispatch warehouses will be affected to a certain extent. Ningbo Port, one of the world’s largest ports, has also been affected by the epidemic’s blockade of trailer entry efficiency. Shippers, forwarders and BCOs will inevitably face further difficulties in the coming months. Out of a total of 553 scheduled sailings on major routes such as Trans-Pacific, Trans-Atlantic, Asia-North Europe and Asia-Mediterranean, 57 sailings were cancelled between week 2 and week 5 of next year, a cancellation rate of 10%. During this period, 58 percent of blank sailings will occur on the trans-Pacific eastbound trade lanes, primarily to the U.S. West Coast, according to Drewry’s current data. Due to the repeated impact of the epidemic in the United States, the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach have been affected by the repeated epidemics in the United States. The clearance efficiency of the port terminals has been greatly reduced, and the goods of the shipping companies cannot be cleared and transported out of the ports in time, which has led to an increase in the stay time of ocean-going freighters in the ports and increased the expenses of the shipping companies. Therefore, there was a time when shipping companies ‘abandoned containers’, which in turn aggravated the port congestion caused by the detention of goods at the terminal, as well as the shortage of containers on the China-US route, repeated cycles. The already overwhelmed supply chain is likely to deteriorate again, and here is a reminder to prepare accordingly. The peak season before the Spring Festival exacerbates the impact. As a result, there may be further congestion at ports and terminals, and shippers are advised to prepare for more delays and continued high shipping costs.
