Maritime Transport methods

• Intermodal Transport
• Intermodal transportation is the use of two or
more modes, or carriers, to transport goods
(freight) from shipper to consignee.
• Special standardized containers are used for
intermodal transport of cargo on trucks,
freight trains, and ship.

How do you know when intermodal is

the right choice for your shipment?
• Here’s a few things to consider when deciding whether
intermodal is a good fit for your shipments.
• Intermodal transportation is most suitable for
intermediate and finished goods in load units of less
than 25 tons.
• The longer the distance a shipment needs to travel, the
more likely it is that intermodal will be a good choice.
• Freight moving more than 300 miles, or longer than
one day by truck, are great candidates for intermodal
transportation.

How do you know when intermodal is

the right choice for your shipment?
• Cargo with intermediate values are most likely to
be moved via intermodal. Those with high values
are often sent via the most direct methods, such
as air cargo, and low value shipments frequently
travel via rail or ocean.
• Intermodal transportation is a good selection
when cargo flow needs to be continuous and in
similar quantities. For example, if you’re sending
multiple LTL shipments to the same location
throughout the week, you may want to consider
using intermodal instead.

Maritime Transport methods

• Multi Modal Transportation
• Multimodal transport (also known as combined
transport) is the transportation of goods under a
single contract, but performed with at least two
different modes of transport; the carrier is liable
(in a legal sense) for the entire carriage, even
though it is performed by several different modes
of transport (by rail, sea and road, for example)
