BREAK-BULK CARGO :-
Break bulk transportation involves moving large cargo in smaller units, such as pallets, barrels, drums, boxes, or bags. It was the most common method of ocean freight transportation before the rise of large container ships.
While typically more labor intensive than full container load (FCL) and less than container load (LCL) shipping, it is often still the best shipping choice when products are too large, heavy, or awkwardly shaped to fit in a standard container, or if the products need to be transported to a minimally-developed port that can't accommodate container ships.
CARGO INSURANCE :-
Cargo Insurance covers loss and/or damage of cargo while it is in transit between the points of origin and final destination. Goods may be transported by sea, air, or land. Cargo Insurance is essential for businesses engaging in international trade, especially those shipping large quantities of goods by ship.
Specific terms and benefits vary widely across the world and many Cargo Insurance Policies are custom tailored for specific shipments, but a few general principles apply to the entire industry.
Different types of Cargo Insurance exist. Policies are available to protect the goods while in transit on the ship, but damage can occur while the ship is in port, while the goods are in transit to the warehouse or while at the warehouse itself.
