In order to help the owner better understand the cost logic of the shipment of private cars and to develop cost-saving strategies, this paper, in conjunction with industry data and real cases, provides a detailed analysis of the three dimensions of cost composition, influence factors and pit avoidance techniques:
The cost of shipment of private cars consists of four components: base freight, car-type surcharge, insurance, value-added services, and the proportion of the modules will be adjusted to the dynamics of the transport scene. The base freight cost is the core cost, usually based on “km per unit price x transport distance”, but is significantly affected by the heat of the line. For example, in short-distance transport, the unit cost of a car is 5-7 km, from beijing to tianjin, approximately 150 km, at a cost of between 750 and 1050 yuan; and the unit cost of a car is 1. 5-2. 5 km, or 220 km, from taiwon to the stone house, at a cost of between 330 and 550 yuan. In medium- and long-distance transport, the hot-gate line is valued at $1. 1-1. 3 per km per unit, at a total cost of approximately $1,500-1,800; the cold-door line is expected to increase by 30-50 per cent owing to the high rate of return traffic, at a total cost of approximately $2500-2800. In the case of long-distance transport, the unit price of the car has been reduced to 1-1. 5 yuan/kilometre, from guangzhou to urumqi, approximately 3,000 kilometres at a cost of between $3,000 and $4,500, while the cost of rail shipment is more economical, i. E., approximately $1,800, if from chengdu to grande 2,500 kilometres, provided that the vehicle is delivered to the station or is self-financed, the statute of limitations is usually three to five days slow。
Car size also has a direct impact on transport costs. No additional costs are required for common cars, but an additional $200-500 is required for the suv/mpv type, such as toyota hlanda. An additional $200 per vehicle is required for a vehicle whose head is in excess of 5. 2 metres and its height is in excess of 2 metres and weighs more than 2 tons. An additional $600 is required for each vehicle, such as the ford raptor piper carin three excesses, and an additional $300-800 is required for the super-long model teslamodelx. Owing to the need for special fixtures for luxury and overweight vehicles, the cost increases by 30-50 per cent, such as the porsche 918 transport time premium of $3 million, which is up to $3,000, and the selection of a professional logistics company for over three tons。
Transport insurance is mandatory, and regular companies usually donate a base premium of $200,000 free of charge, over which the rate is 0. 1 to 0. 5 per cent. For example, a vehicle valued at $500,000 is to be paid $1,200 in excess of that amount, while an additional contribution of $600 to $3,000 is required for a mercedes-s level valued at $0. 8 million. The limo suggests the purchase of “total risk”, such as the porsche 911 full risk of approximately $20,000-$30,000, which fully covers all risks in transport. In addition, the cost of going to the door to pick up the delivery vehicles is $300-500 per one-way trip, plus $100 per 20 km of excess, and $200-500 for transit costs in remote areas. The cost of emergency services would increase by between 30 and 50 per cent, for example by approximately $200 from shanghai to beijing, which could double during spring holidays. Special packing, such as closed transport, will double the cost, for example, open transport from taiwon to hangzhou, class s, approximately $2,000, and closed transport approximately $4,000; and a 10 per cent increase in the cost of a smoothing chain for the north-east or north-west route during winter。
Key variables affecting costs include distance, vehicle type, time and mode of transport. In short-distance transportation, the cost of transport is high, but fast, and suitable for emergency needs; in long-distance transportation, the cost of transport is lower, but full capacity is required to accommodate non-emergency requirements; and in long-distance transportation, the freight fare is 20-30 per cent lower than that of a road, provided that the vehicle is transported to a freight terminal on its own. The cost of large suvs is 30-50 per cent higher than that of ordinary cars; the cost of luxury cars/overruns is doubled by the use of a full-container carriage + million class insurance. Prices rose by 20-30 per cent during the season and parking space was strained; prices fell by 10-20 per cent during the off-season period, with excess capacity; and holiday surcharges, such as a portion of the line during the spring festival, were added to the fee of $300-$500 for “salary services”. The economy of the bus/cage is affordable and suitable for long-distance shipment at a price of about $1,000-$6,000, with the best value for money; the one-to-one service, which is one-fold higher but fast, suitable for emergency or luxury shipment; and the lower cost of rail/sea transport, which is suitable for long-distance or inter-provincial transport, but with a longer time limit。
The choice of a formal company, the definition of contractual terms and the rational planning of transport programmes are key to controlling costs and ensuring security. Remember, it is the “mode of kingship” for the transport of private cars to buy professional security at a reasonable price。
