How we work

Start with clear facts. Finish with an executable plan.

Common gateways

Common gateways include Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Ningbo and Shanghai to Los Angeles, Long Beach, New York and inland destinations.

Documents and customs

Importer details, HTS classification, product compliance and duty exposure should be reviewed before dispatch.

Price and transit-time factors

Season, capacity, fuel, route, equipment, cargo density, customs readiness and final-mile conditions all affect the final plan. Every schedule and price must be reconfirmed before booking.

Suitable cargo and limitations

General cargo can usually follow standard processes. Batteries, dangerous goods, regulated products, oversized cargo and temperature-sensitive goods require separate acceptance and compliance review.
