send your extra luggage by AIR Freight Service

Why it is better to send your extra luggage by AIR FreightService…

Sending your excess luggage by Air is quicker and can arrive at the destination that you would like to send to and can be waiting for you to pickup when you arrive once customs clearance has been done.

If you are taking your luggage through the terminal that is fine and you can do so as this is part of most bookings but if you are taking extra and it is overweight or oversized you will be required to pay the extra fees per kilo and oversized fees which will depend on each individual item you are sending.

At the terminal check in staff can also reject your extra luggage due to the weight that the aircraft might already be carrying and cannot take any extra except what is booked in for your allowance as per your ticket. You will be then directed to take your luggage to the INERNATIONAL /DOMESTIC FREIGHT terminal which is normally driving distance within  the airport to check your freight/luggage in.

In this process you will have to fill out paper work and a declaration and pay the extra sending cost  which you might not have at the time to send your freight/luggage  which takes time and you could miss your flight if this is done at the last minute and still  your freight/luggage might not be able to be sent on the same flight as you.

So by sending your extra luggage AIR FREIGHT but booked in and collected and sent earlier via our INTERNAIONAL SERVICE, this will save you the extra worry when you arrive at the airport and you can check in your normal luggage allowance with your ticket and for destination.

Personal items are classed as… CLOTHES,SHOES, HANDBAGS,HAIRBRUSHES,  PILLOW, BLANKETS, SHEETS…..NO LIQUID ITEMS, NO DANGEROUS GOODS SUCH AS BATTERIES, NO FOOD PRODUCTS, HERBS, SPICES OR ANY OTHER KINDS OF POWDERS, NO SEEDS, OR DRIED FOODS.

HOW FREIGHT WORKS

When we buy something online or need to transport a package, the post office or a parcel delivery service often come to mind. However, not every item can be compressed into a neat little package. So, how do you transport those items too large or bulky for traditional parcel carriers to handle? The answer, of course, is freight. Specialising in especially large and bulky shipments, or those over 45 kilos, One Express is the only name to remember to handle all of your freight services.  

In simple terms, freight is an extended version of a parcel shipping service. A freight service specialists in transporting goods from one destination to another in the most efficient, cost-effective manner possible.

WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF FREIGHT?

When we look at the future of freight, we can safely say that it’s pretty bright. With technological advancements steadily improving, and the purchasing power of middle income countries increasing a hand-fold, it’s no surprise to see investors scrambling up and down to get a piece of the pie. So what does this mean for the freight industry? Will things look different 10 to 20 years down the line? Well, our experts strongly believe so due to the following reasons.


Automation is the future  
The advent of self-driving technology is inevitable. It’s not a matter of if it’s here, but when it will be integrated into the transport sector. Though the technology is still in its development stages, many companies are slowly but surely coming to the idea of its inclusion. So how does this affect freight? Well it’s simple; it’s safer, faster and will be much cheaper in the long run. I’m sure truck drivers will especially be threatened thinking their jobs are in jeopardy: but guess what? Automated technology still needs the ‘human touch’ to be present; just to make sure everything is running smoothly. 

A haven for investors
Since there will be fewer accidents due to automation, a greater sense of reliability and durability will be felt among customers. And what’s deemed better to investors than an industry having the complete trust of its consumers? Things won’t stop there. Technological advancements will also enable freight services brokers to collect more data along the routes: regardless of whether it’s by road, air or ship. So it will be no surprise to see a sea of investment opportunities springing forth from the industry.

THE RIGHT FREIGHT PROVIDER

TOP 5 TIPS ON HOW TO SELECT THE RIGHT FREIGHT  

PROVIDER

How amazing would it be if you could get your goods delivered to their destination on time? Better yet, wouldn’t it be awesome if they got there in one piece and in good condition? Sadly, when it comes to our precious commodities, some of us bare the losses due to one simple mistake; we chose an incompetent freight provider who mishandled the cargo. There is nothing more frustrating than discovering the gift you sent to your relative in Belgium actually got there in ‘halves.’ So to avoid these kind of mishaps, here is what you should look for when choosing your freight company.

Experience

Experience speaks a lot about the competence of a provider. In fact, a company with experience means that they have dealt with the toughest of situations. Whether it’s the shutdown of a port, or the rerouting of the cargo, a veteran will have dealt with it all and will know how to overcome such obstacles. So experience is definitely an attribute you should be keen on.

The provider’s networking and business partners

This is very important. A provider that has both strong local and international connections is like a cup of sweet tea. This means that your goods can safely and securely be delivered regardless of the distance of the destination. Heck, if the provider can get your commodities delivered to Atlantis, the better!

The provider should offer the freight services you need

There’s no point you should seek the services of a provider who only offers road and shipment options, yet you are exporting flowers to France (perishable items)! It just doesn’t add up. Also, make sure they offer an insurance plan. I cannot reiterate how important it is to have a backup cushion in case things go south during transit. To put it simply, cargo insurance and tracking better be part of their package. If not, think twice about shaking their hand no matter how sweet the deal is.

Great Customer Service

To put it simply, would you want to be friends with someone who seems snobbish and rude at first glance? The same thing applies to the provider. If they truly do not take the time to make you feel comfortable about trusting your goods to them, then there’s no point of wasting even a single dollar.

Great feedback review

As we all know, feedback is crucial during decision making. It helps you decide whether or not the provider has been competent or slacking in their freight service delivery. If everything is super awesome with their reviews, then it’s safe to say you can trust them to get things done for you. With that being said, reflect back on these points and if you see that the provider meets these criteria, then you’re good to go!

STEP BY STEP PROCESS ON HOW FREIGHT IS DELIVERED

STEP BY STEP PROCESS ON HOW FREIGHT IS DELIVERED

One Saturday morning, you take a casual trip to the store because your favorite shoe brand just released a new shoe to the market. Since you’re a big fan, you don’t hesitate to break the bank and immediately go out to get a new pair. It’s not common to forget how these goodies wind up being transferred thousands of miles from where they were first created. We’re able to get our hands on these nifty kicks because of freight delivery services that have, these days, become advanced and efficient. Read on to check out the process of international freight and how it ends up on your doorstep:

Firstly, your store places an order for the shoes a month before the official release date to
the factory in the United States. A truck company then loads this shoes (which are
packed in cartons) from the factory into the freight container, which is then sealed and
bolted shut.

The truck then delivers the freight container to the nearest and most economical port for
sea transport. The customs officials at the port may inspect the freight to ensure there is
no foul play, but this rarely happens. The freight service provider from Australia has linked up
with a contracted shipping company to transport the container across sea. Before
transportation takes place, the shipping company has to submit documentation to the
government authorities in both countries. The information includes the importer, the
exporter, the freight provider, and the shipping company. After it is loaded onto the ship
by use of cranes, the container is now in transit to the port of say, Melbourne.

A few days before arrival, the captain of the ship has to radio in on the port to report
about the contents of the ship, and when it is expected to dock. This will prepare
government customs accordingly to inspect the ship when it arrives.

Upon receiving the go ahead to dock, the customs officials will inspect the contents and
give the green light for dock workers to begin unloading the containers using cranes.
Once unloaded, the freight will be transported to a specified warehouse in your local area
by a truck trailer. The cartons containing the shoes will then be loaded into trucks and
delivered directly to the store, where they are unpacked and put on sale.
So, it might not be rocket science to see how your shoes get to the store, but it takes a
helluva lot of effort from the freight providers to keep you up to date with the latest trends.
Hence, the next time you buy an international product, take a little time to thank providers
like One Express for fulfilling your dreams.

When looking at the different freight companies, and other Australian cities have to offer, you need to take your time to consider exactly what makes the best delivery service. Once you know what qualities you should be searching for, it will be much easier for you to select the company that gives you exactly what you want for a price that you can afford. Below are three key factors that you should consider.

First, you need to find the transport company in Melbourne Sydney Brisbane and other cities have to offer who will be able to operate on your schedule. If you call the company and they simply tell you when they are willing to work with you, with no regard to what you want, it may be time to look elsewhere. You need a company that asks you what works best for you, what fits within your schedule, and what timeframe you need to see for the project. This shows that the company puts you first, which is a good sign, and it also indicates that you will be paying for exactly the type of services that you want.

Next, you should look for an Interstate delivery services company with positive reviews as far as being prompt is concerned. When you set up the appointment, you need to know that they value your business enough to show up when they told you they would arrive. You should not be forced to wait around for hours, which can really hold back the job that you are trying to do. Read some online reviews and see if people who have used the company in the past are generally happy with when they have shown up and how quickly they have gotten the jobs done.

Finally, you need to hire a delivery services company that gives you a fair price. The price should not dictate everything, of course; for example, you should not always pick the lowest price, since it may come with the worst service. However, you should try to find a balance. Look for the company that gives you the best overall service for a price that is not inflated.

Our personalised, end to end freight services and management solutions aim to reduce long term impacts brought about by increasing freight costs, inefficient supply chain processes and uncertain economic times. We have all the facilities to provide premium transport service between all states in Australia, including freight from Sydney to Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth and everywhere in between.
