Build a Current Route and Freight File

Record the quote date and validity. Recheck the route when the cargo-ready date, carton list or destination changes.

Input	Evidence to record	Why it changes
Route	Origin, load port, discharge port and final delivery point	Port pair and inland leg
Equipment	Container or LCL service, payload and loading restrictions	SKU mix, CBM, weight and pallets
Schedule	Cargo-ready date, cutoff, departure, transshipment and ETA	Carrier schedule and booking date
Charges	Base freight, surcharges, insurance, origin and destination charges	Validity window and market conditions
Scope	Trade term and named place	Determines who books and pays each leg

Container Loading Uses Two Limits

Check both volume and payload. The tighter result governs, subject to loading and carrier restrictions.

📐

Volume check

Use approved carton dimensions for every SKU
Separate loose-load and palletized plans
Compare total CBM with the booked available volume

⚖️

Payload check

Use current gross kg per carton
Include pallet and packing weight
Confirm payload and weight distribution with the carrier

Shipping FAQ

The five questions every importer asks before their first container.

How long does shipping take from China?

Use the current carrier schedule for the chosen origin, destination, service and booking date. Separate factory readiness, origin handling, ocean or air transit, customs release and final delivery instead of publishing one permanent route time.

What is the shipping cost for tile leveling tools?

Request a validity-dated quote for the exact carton list, gross weight, volume, origin, destination and trade term. Freight, surcharges, insurance, port charges and delivery are shipment-specific.

What incoterms do you offer?

Standard terms: FOB Ningbo (recommended for first-time importers). Also available: CIF and EXW Wenzhou. FOB means we cover production, inland trucking, and export customs — you arrange ocean freight and import clearance.

What documents do you provide with each shipment?

The shipment file is built to the transaction and destination. It normally starts with the commercial invoice, packing list and transport document; origin or product-compliance evidence is added only when the exact SKU and entry requirements call for it.

How many bags fit in a container?

Calculate from the current SKU-level carton dimensions, cartons, gross weight, pallet choice and carrier limits. A fixed bag count is not reliable for mixed orders. Use the container load calculator and confirm the final plan with the forwarder.
