Freight
Freight is the charge paid to a carrier for transporting cargo. The term is most often applied to sea and air transport; the freight amount depends on the route, volume or weight, and current rates.
Freight rates fluctuate with demand, season, and route. Depending on the Incoterms, freight may be included in the price of the goods and affect the customs value.
We will select the best transport option and factor freight into the cost calculation.
