Multimodal transport

Multimodal transport

Multimodal or combined transport is a shipment arranged by two or more means of transport (sea, railroad, truck and transport by air) using all manner of infrastructure (terminals, consolidation warehouses, harbours, airports). It is necessary to underline that only one forwarder is responsible for the complete delivery from the beginning to the end. Multimodal or combined transports are in demand in international cargo delivery in the whole world because not always there is direct connection between departure location and destination point. Usually sea freight is an integral part of multimodal transport.
