Floor booking=full container direct delivery reservation: can be shipped in bulk, no need to palletize, and the goods will be directly sent to the conveyor belt for operation after unloading
✅ Flooring can save on truck transportation costs, while palletizing and loading may waste some space in the container
✅ Low cost, minimal transit transportation, and high safety
❌ Disadvantage: Amazon requires more manpower to unload goods, resulting in high labor costs. Generally, the quantity of flooring is relatively small, and during peak season when inventory is high, the probability of the flooring being temporarily cancelled will greatly increase, and shelving will also be affected by inventory
Cardboard booking=pallet booking: The goods need to be loaded onto the pallet in order to use this booking. That is to say, after the container arrives in the United States, our overseas warehouse needs to unpack the container and place it on the pallet before scheduling delivery. If the weight of each box of goods exceeds 50 pounds, the pallet must be properly placed for the forklift to move the goods
✅ Appointment booking is simple and also the main booking method for most freight forwarders
✅ Amazon has fast receiving speed and quick listing
❌ Disadvantage: It requires palletizing and container loading, which increases the cost of pallet and truck transportation
