Understand your ocean freight quotes
While it's important to consider freight rates or charges such as handling costs and customs clearance fees, it is crucial to keep in mind that these charges are only part of the total cost of shipping.
To ensure you're making the best decision for your business, you also need to consider other factors such as reliability, side conditions like demurrage and detention times, and accessorial charges.
Flexport is committed to transparency, so our ocean freight quotes clearly outline each individual charge.
