If you are planning an upcoming trip, let our team at C & S Transportation help you explore our range of efficient shipping options. Whether you need to move cargo across borders or are planning a moving trip within the U.S., we are happy to help you get on the road as quickly as possible.

Moving shipments across international borders is a process that involves quite a bit of planning ahead of time. From the overall cost to the various methods that are required, there are certainly a variety of things to keep in mind. If you are going to need at least two different modes of transport, consider asking our team about multimodal transportation when thinking about efficient shipping options. This is one of the best efficient shipping options if you will be utilizing a combination of plane (air), train (rail), truck (road), or ship (sea) to complete the upcoming trip.

Multimodal transportation, also called combined transport, is certainly ideal when it comes to the number of carriers required to complete the trip. Where intermodal transport would require several contacts from multiple carriers, multimodal will provide a single point of contact. This will streamline the entire process, which is why it's one of the most efficient shipping options available. By eliminating various entities involved in a traditional trip, you can count on an easy journey from point A to point B each and every time.

Of course, multimodal transport is beneficial in other ways as well. Ranging from access to preexisting networks to reduced risk of delays, there are many reasons why you should speak to our team about this service when discussing efficient shipping options. Another reason to keep this in mind is that you will only need one tracking number and interface for the entire process as well, so you can feel confident that you will always be able to get timely updates about the location of your cargo.

If you are relocating or are instead planning a shipping trip that requires less than a truckload, consider LTL shipping. This can be an ideal solution for your needs if you are thinking about flexibility and overhead cost. Due to the fact that you will be able to leave warehouses on your schedule, you can easily acclimate to the needs of your ever-changing market. As can be expected, this can also lower your storage costs since you will not have to stockpile products. On top of that, you'll also find that this service is accompanied by a diversified delivery area as well, which can help when it comes to planning the trip you need. As you can see, there are many efficient shipping options to consider before hitting the road.
