What are the advantages of transporting goods by road?

Cargo delivery on cars is the most demanded segment of cargo transportation. What is the reason for such a high demand for motor transport services? Let's consider the issue in more detail

Motor transport - the most convenient way of delivery of goods around the city

Cars are mobile and fast, they are used on urban, intercity and regional routes, carrying a variety of types of cargo. There are practically no restrictions on the delivery, a machine or a batch of grocery goods, medicines or computers can be loaded onto the truck.

Let us highlight the most important advantages that cargo road transport has:

• Universality - the ability to carry any cargo: liquid, loose, dangerous, oversized, etc .;
• Affordable tariffs - if you need to deliver a small lot, the car is the best option;
• Delivery by the format "from door to door" - there are roads everywhere, so the cargo is delivered to the address;
• Speed - the truck is sent to the road immediately after placing the order.

These pluses can be added mobility of vehicles, flexible logistics (the ability to plan several different routes), providing control over the state of the cargo and the machine due to modern tracking systems (the dispatcher monitors the movement of the car in real time mode).

Especially transportations by motor transport are claimed in conditions of city and long-distance delivery, in this case the lorry is the optimal and often the only option.

But the main advantage is the delivery of goods "to the door." This format is most convenient - the transport company takes the goods from the warehouse and delivers them to the recipient (to the house, office or other warehouse). If you use a different transport, you will not be able to deliver the goods "from door to door".

A wide range of trucks for the transportation of any type of cargo

If you need to transport the furniture, then order a truck with a tent, and the cargo will be delivered in a short time to the destination. Was it necessary to transport semi-finished products? Then order a refrigerator - the so-called special mode of transport, in which the van is equipped with refrigeration equipment, it maintains the desired temperature regime throughout the journey.

For the delivery of oversized loads, low-frame platforms are usually used. If the dimensions of the object exceed at least one dimension parameter, a special designation (sign or light warning) must be set. Having applied to the transport company, the client can order the registration of all the documents that will be required, including obtaining official transportation permits.

Small and large consignments are transported by road. If you want to deliver large-sized equipment, the size of which does not fit any of the machines, then the object is disassembled (if possible) and transported in parts. For transportation of small lots use maneuverable trucks of the type "Gazelles", they are ideal for working in the city.

For the transport of goods of medium tonnage, machines with a carrying capacity of 3-3.5 tons are used. On-board machines have higher load-lifting characteristics - up to 5.5 tons. If the transported object is to be protected from rain and other climatic phenomena, the car is completed with a tent.

To make an order for transportation of goods is very simple, all you need is to contact the transport company, indicating the characteristics of the goods and the delivery address. All the work of the carrier will take care of by picking up the car in accordance with the weight of the object and other basic parameters.
