Rail freight
Our many years of experience and cooperation with international railway networks enable us to provide complex handling of every manner of goods entrusted to us. We offer all possible types of rail freight car for use, and connect Europe to China as well as the CIS to Turkey and Iran.
Our favourite routes are from China to the CIS (RU; KZ; UZ; KG; TK; TJ) and from Europe to the CIS (RU; KZ; UZ; KG; TK; TJ). We are partners for all main border-crossing points and have the possibility to monitor and control your cargo en route.
Our terminals help you to collect cargoes from different shippers inside Europe and China, to load wagons according to nomenclature and conduct separation, marking and packing of cargoes at your request.
Shipments by rail cars can also be consolidated (goods for different recipients in one rail car and each recipient pays according to the space occupied by his cargo). For a number of years we have successfully provided this economically efficient means of delivery via our facilities in Vilnius (LT); Istanbul (TK), Chop (UA), Brest (BL), Guangzhou (CN); Shenzhen (CN) and principal European and Chinese ports.
Container shipments are very popular and universal. You can ship your cargo from any part of the world. The route of single container often consists of different modes of transport. A.R.T. Logistics is a professional operator and can guarantee its clients high quality service from the door of the sender to the door of the recipient.
We operate in most major sea ports of Europe, America, China and South East Asia and border crossings in Europe and the CIS. Additional services such as goods collection, buying and loading of containers and customs formalities are an important part of our service.
We differentiate between two main types of containerised shipment: Full container (FCL) and Part of container load (LCL). FCL is used to describe the freight service designed for shipments of cargo where the shipper has exclusive use of the container. In general, containers are loaded and sealed by the shipper at the shipper's facility. The cargo has to fit in the container’s dimensions in order to be shipped as FCL. Once loaded and sealed, the cargo is transported by sea, rail and /or truck directly to the final point of destination.
LCL is important method of containerised shipment, by means of which you can transport small consignments regularly without incurring additional costs. LCL system lowers transport costs considerably: you don't need to pay for the whole container but only for the space your cargo takes. LCL carriage is based on a number of routes and consolidating centres. We offer a full range of services including cargo handling and delivery to consignees’ customs terminals.
