How to Get a Shipping Quotation?

Freight forwarders require the following information before they can provide a quotation.

• Shipping method: Air or ocean or rail

• Total Cargo Volume (cbm)/Total Weight (kg)

• Each Carton of weight and Dim

• Freight Term: EXW Factory or FOB

• Pick address: factory address or port name

• Delivery address

• Insurance (Yes / No)

• Freight Quote normally does not include: Duty & Tax

So be sure to have this information prepared when you ask for a Cheap shipping quote. As such, the final freight cost can only be ‘confirmed’ once the products are manufactured and packed. But you can still get an estimate by providing this information.
