Multimodal transportation is the cargo transportation by two or more types of transport organized by one logistics company.

In multimodal transportation, road, railway, air and water transport can be combined with each other.

In which cases multimodal freight transportation is used:

• Absence of direct communication by one mode of transport between the sender and the recipient of the cargo;
• The available types of direct messages for some reason are not suitable for the customer: high cost, long delivery time, etc.

The main advantages of this type of transportation:

• Reduction of transportation costs. Everything is done by one contractor, there is no need to search and negotiate with several organizations;
• Route optimization. Thanks to multimodal transportation, the entire route is divided into several parts that combine most effectively;
• Prompt delivery. The executor independently connects all the links of the logistics chain, which saves the customer's time;
• Security. All risks for the safety of the cargo during transportation are assumed by the contractor;
• Convenient workflow. The customer interacts with one contractor and receives from him one set of documents for the entire scope of services.
