The variety, nature and shape of the goods should be stated in the packaging project, and the transportation mode suitable for these goods should be selected. The freight bearing capacity of the goods should also be seriously considered.
The transportation time limit must be related to the delivery date, and the transportation time limit must be guaranteed. It is necessary to investigate the transportation time required by various modes of transportation and choose the transportation mode according to the transportation time. Generally speaking, the order of transportation time is air transportation, automobile transportation, railway transportation and ship transportation. Each means of transportation can be arranged according to its speed, and the required transportation time can be calculated by adding its two ends and the transit operation time. In commodity circulation, it is a basic requirement to study the present situation of these modes of transportation and carry out planned transportation, hoping to have an accurate delivery date.

The transportation cost varies with the kind, weight, volume and distance of the goods. Moreover, transportation costs will change with different modes of transportation. When considering the transportation cost, we must pay attention to the relationship between freight and other logistics subsystems. We should not only consider the transportation cost to determine the transportation mode, but also decide the transportation mode based on the total cost.

From the perspective of transportation distance, the following principles can generally be followed: within 300 kilometers, car transportation; Railway transportation between 300 and 500 kilometers; More than 500 kilometers, shipping. Generally, it is more economical and reasonable to adopt such a choice.

Let's look at the impact of transportation batches. Because the cost of large-scale transportation is low, it is necessary to concentrate the goods as close as possible to the final consumers. Choosing the right mode of transportation is a good way to reduce the cost. Generally speaking, goods under 15 ~ 20 tons are transported by car; /kloc-railway transportation of 0/5 ~ 20 tons of goods; Commodities over several hundred tons, such as raw materials, should be transported by ship.
