Intermodal shipping is gaining more and more attention among businesses and individuals who routinely ship goods. Intermodal shipping utilizes multiple modes of transport, such as rail, air, road, and water vessels, to move goods across long distances. Many customers chose intermodal shipping as it can benefit those looking to move products quickly and efficiently.
One of the top advantages of intermodal shipping is its cost-effectiveness. By utilizing multiple means of transport, instead of just one form, businesses can save on fuel costs, personnel costs, and insurance premiums.
Intermodal shipping likewise offers greater flexibility when it comes to delivery times – thanks to the combination system utilized by modern-day logistics providers, like FLS Transportation, you can choose between different combinations for different types of shipments depending on your needs and preferences. You have improved visibility on when your shipment will arrive at its destination since most intermodal facilities provide precise information regarding estimated arrival times before your shipment even begins its journey!
