Multi Fracht resumes timber shipment to China

New Year and its long Russian holidays are over, and Multi Fracht resumes timber shipment in timber wagons from the Gorky, Northern, Sverdlovsk and Far Eastern railways to China via Grodekovo – Suifenhe and Zamin Uud – Erlian border crossings.
   Despite the mild and sloppy weather, which is unfavourable for foresters, Multi Fracht intends to provide them with wagons in January 2020 and to dispatch over 3,000 tons of birch peeler logs in that direction.
   Apart from providing wagons, the company shall pay tariff rates for foreign territories, including that of Mongolia.
  As usual, most of the products will be dispatched from the following stations: Murashi, Votkinsk, Igra, Vereshchagino, Krasavino, Novochuguevka, Saygatka, Luza.

Advantages of the rail freight:

— low transportation costs, especially for long-distance transportation in remote areas;
— capable of carrying big volumes of cargoes per voyage;

— high-capacity transshipment points, loading and unloading terminals;
— almost no restrictions on the cargo weight and composition.

Based on our long-term experience,
we may conclude that cooperation with one partner saves time,
money and spares the customer’s nerves!

The main advantage of multimodal transportation is that it there is only one person responsible for the services rendered. Efficient routes involving the most cost-effective vehicles in the relevant destinations.

Routes— door-to-door delivery with due regard of the transport infrastructure, environmental conditions, unloading / loading capacity in the region, regardless of the transportation distance.

Cost- if delivery time comes first, then the price will be higher; however, if you give priority to transportation costs, then we will develop the most cost-effective route, which is likely to take slightly more time.

For example, river transportation usually costs 30–40% cheaper than road or railway transportation (the difference may even be twofold or higher for separate directions).
