Land or "ground" shipping can be either by train or by truck. Trucking
is easily the most popular form of shipping. Even in Air and Sea
shipments, ground transportation is still required to take the product
from its origin to the airport or seaport and then to its destination.
Ground transportation is typically more affordable than air shipments, but
more expensive than shipping by sea. Trucks are also much faster than
ships and rail but slower than planes.
Many trucks will take freight directly from the shipper to its destination
in what is known as a door to door shipment. Vans and trucks of all sizes
make deliveries to sea ports and air ports where freight is moved in bulk
also.
Much shipping is done aboard actual ships. An individual nation's fleet
and the people that crew it are referred to its "merchant navy" or
"merchant marine". Merchant shipping is essential to the world economy,
carrying the bulk of international trade. The ships are also extremely
expensive constructions themselves, being some of the largest man-made
vehicles ever. The term originates with the shipping trade of wind power
ships, and has come to refer to the delivery of cargo and parcels of any
size above the common mail of letters and postcards.
Ground shipping can be cheaper and less restrictive to size, quantity,
weight, and type of freight than by air transport. Air transport is
usually reserved for products which must be sent within a shorter time
frame. Some carriers offer ground shipping that operates on an exact
timeline as air does. This is a recent development becoming mainstream
among major carriers since the late 1990s. UPS and FedEx both offer
guaranteed day ground shipping. |
