Express Cargo: Fast and Reliable Delivery Solutions

The importance of speed and reliability in delivery processes is increasing day by day. While standard cargo services often fall short for time-critical shipments, individuals and businesses are turning to faster and more reliable solutions. Express cargo service ensures that shipments reach the recipient in a short time by speeding up the process for urgent deliveries. In this way, both individual users and businesses can receive a secure service without experiencing time loss for the deliveries they need.

Differences Between Express Cargo and Standard Cargo

Cargo services are diversified according to different needs and offer suitable alternatives for every user. At this point, the urgency of the shipment and budget planning become the determining factors in choosing which service type to use. Therefore, the choice between express cargo and standard cargo carries strategic importance for both individual users and businesses.

Shipping Process: From Reservation to Delivery

Express cargo service is managed through a planned process from the reservation step to delivery.

Subsequently, the shipment is securely collected via the door-to-door pickup service, and the shipment process begins.

Delivery is made directly to the recipient, and customer support teams answer potential questions during this process. Door-to-door express cargo solutions stand out as the most practical option, especially for time-sensitive shipments.

Express Customs Clearance Services

Customs procedures are at the forefront of the most time-consuming steps in international shipments. Inspections at customs, document checks, and the process of compliance with country regulations can sometimes take days. In express cargo services, however, this stage is carried out with accelerated procedures. In this way, shipments pass through customs in a much shorter time compared to standard cargo and are directed to delivery.

Within the scope of express customs clearance, steps such as the advance preparation of documents, priority control of risky shipments, and obtaining necessary permits in advance according to country regulations are included. Thus, delays are prevented on both the sender and receiver sides, and the delivery process becomes predictable.

Express cargo customs fees vary according to the content, weight, value of the shipment, and the regulations of the destination country. For example, customs costs for electronic products and textile products may differ from each other. Therefore, it is of great importance to know customs rules in advance for international shipments and to plan costs accordingly.

Documents for Export and Import

Preparing documents correctly for international express cargo shipments is one of the most critical stages of the process. Missing or incorrect documents can lead to the shipment waiting at customs, being delayed, or even being returned. Therefore, necessary documents for export and import transactions must be arranged completely.

In export shipments, the following documents are generally requested:

• Commercial invoice: Shows the type, quantity, and value of the shipment.

• Certificate of Origin: Proves in which country the product was produced.

• Customs Declaration: Shows that the shipment has been officially reported to customs.

• Transport documents: Documents such as Airway Bill or Seaway Bill.

In import transactions, additional documents may be requested depending on the type of products entering the country. Health certificates, certificates of conformity, permission letters, or phytosanitary certificates for agricultural products may fall into this scope.

When correct document preparation is not done, serious time losses and additional costs may arise at customs. Therefore, paying attention to the documentation process in international cargo shipments is one of the most important conditions for the delivery to be completed quickly and smoothly.

Express Cargo Pricing Criteria

Express cargo prices vary according to the type, weight, size of the shipment, and the region where delivery will be made. Therefore, express cargo price calculation tools provide clear information to customers before shipping. Thus, costs can be foreseen in advance for both individual and corporate shipments.

Offering affordable express cargo solutions, ENCO provides transparency in pricing, gaining competitive advantages for its customers.

Desi (Volumetric Weight) and Weight Calculation

The most important criteria in express cargo pricing are desi (volumetric weight) and weight. Desi is a value that determines the volume of the shipment and is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height measurements and dividing by a specific divisor. Weight refers to the value of the shipment in actual kilograms.

When determining cargo fees, whichever value is higher between desi and weight is taken as the basis. For example, since the desi value will be higher than the actual weight for a light but large-volume package, pricing is done based on desi. Conversely, for a small package with dense weight, the calculation is made according to the actual weight.

Thanks to this method, both carrying capacity is balanced and fair pricing is ensured. When the sender calculates the dimensions and weight information correctly, they can foresee the cost in advance and do not encounter unexpected fees.

Region and Distance Multipliers

Another important factor taken into account in express cargo pricing is region and distance multipliers. As the distance the shipment will be transported increases, the cost also rises. While shipments made to close distances are transported with lower fees, prices are higher for shipments directed to distant regions or different continents.

Additionally, transportation difficulties, customs regulations, or limited transport modes in some regions also affect the cost. While deliveries to city centers generally take place at more affordable prices, additional costs may be in question for rural or hard-to-reach areas. Therefore, region and distance factors stand out as one of the fundamental criteria in determining express cargo fees.
