Chapter 21. How to reduce shipping cost of Xmas Sweater?

Below are some tips to guide you in getting the best rates of your Xmas Sweater freight shipping cost.

Work with agents from big names of DHL, FedEx, UPS, TNT, and EMS when ship your Xmas Sweater samples. They are at least 10% cheaper than big names;
Work with freight forwarders
- Freight forwarders have established networks with different shippers and can easily get the best prices for your Xmas Sweater shipment.
Consolidate Xmas Sweater shipping
- Consolidate shipping is whereby your goods are shipped together with other products from different shippers in one container. This type of shipping is much cheaper.
Negotiate with multiple shippers
- If you're doing the Xmas Sweater shipping process by yourself, negotiating with multiple shippers will help you decide on the one with the best deal. The more you ship the lower your rates will be and this favors small importers. Since the prices are based on the volume, small importers could negotiate based on the number of Xmas Sweater packages they ship.
Plan your Xmas Sweater shipment early
- Just like booking a flight for your holidays, you should also plan your Xmas Sweater shipment early to evade a surge in the overall shipping costs. Ensure that you inform your forwarder months or weeks in advance for them to have enough time to effectively plan your shipment. Failure to do this might not only result in higher costs but also delays and missed deliveries.
Ultimate Skill - Place your Xmas Sweater order before Middle of March, and get your cargo shipped before June. Reason is Middle of March is the empty season of Xmas Sweater factories, and shippers are also empty before June. Get it? :)
