Multimodal or intermodal cargo transportation — transportation of goods under one contract, performed by at least two types of transport. The carrier is responsible for the entire process of delivery from point A to point B, even if completely different types of transport are involved (for example: railway, sea, truck, aircraft).
Our benefits:
transportation of basically any type of cargo;
the ability to deliver cargo from and to anywhere in the world;
ability to use different routes and delivery schemes.
Interesting fact about multimodal transportation
The carrier does not have to own all possible vehicles - in practice this is a very rare phenomenon. Transportation is usually performed by sub-carriers (in maritime law they are called real carriers). The carrier responsible for multimodal delivery is called a multimodal transport operator (MTO).
