Large-scale logistics is a special branch in the logistics industry, mainly for the logistics and transportation of ultra-high, overweight, and over-long goods, and can be used for land or water transportation of large goods. Due to the needs of some industries, large-scale logistics and transportation have developed particularly rapidly in recent years.
1. Railway logistics and transportation
Railway logistics transportation is mostly used for the logistics and transportation of large goods with long distances, and usually logistics companies will cooperate with railway companies to carry out logistics transportation of large goods according to the fixed route of the railway. Because the route of the railway track is fixed, and the timetable of logistics transportation is also very fixed, it is generally not affected by other factors, and the goods can be transported on time, and various types of large goods can be carried, and the cost is low.
2. Highway logistics and transportation
As the main mode of logistics transportation, road logistics transportation mode has been used in this way for a long time, and occupies an irreplaceable position in the logistics industry. Highway logistics transportation can save space and time, relative to railway logistics transportation, road logistics transportation does not need to accept parking stations and route constraints, as long as the road conditions are not very bad, basically can use automobile logistics transportation, while more convenient delivery and pick-up.
The cost of logistics and transportation is paid according to the route between the place of origin and the place of receipt, and at the same time, the logistics system is to reduce the total cost according to the system to reduce the total cost, rather than according to the cost of logistics and transportation to reduce the cost to achieve the effect of reducing costs.
