1. The cargo damage and cargo difference are greatly reduced, and the quality and safety of cargo transportation are improved

When the general cargo transportation method is adopted, because the cargo is not easy to protect during transportation and storage, especially in the case of multiple transportation links and complex varieties, the cargo is transshipped and reloaded during the midway, causing the mixed ticket and theft accidents to occur frequently. After the container transportation method is adopted, due to the protection of the goods with higher strength and better water tightness, the goods are not easily damaged during the handling, loading and unloading and storage processes, and they are not afraid of damp, and the possibility of goods being lost on the way is greatly reduced. The goodness rate of the goods has been greatly improved.

2. Improve loading and unloading efficiency and reduce labor intensity

Container transportation expands the transport unit, standardizes the unit size, and provides conditions for the realization of mechanization of cargo handling and handling. The development of mechanization has significantly improved the efficiency of cargo handling and handling. While improving the efficiency of loading and unloading, the manual labor intensity of workers is greatly reduced, but it also improves the knowledge and skills requirements of the operators. The adoption of mechanized and automated operation methods. So that workers only need to engage in some auxiliary manual work.

3. Save the packaging of goods transportation and simplify the tally procedures

As a kind of transportation equipment that can be used repeatedly, the container body can protect the goods, and the packaging cost of the goods can be reduced. For example, the use of containers to ship TV sets can save packaging costs by about 50% compared to the original bulk cargo transportation method. In addition, in the transportation yard, because the container does not have high requirements for the environment, the investment in the yard and warehouse is saved. Due to the small packaging unit and different shapes of groceries, it is relatively difficult to tally; but using standard containers, the tally is counted according to the whole box, which can save time and tally costs.

4. Speed up the delivery of goods

Containerization is used for cargo loading and unloading in ports and stations. The standard liquefied cargo unit makes loading and unloading and handling actions simple and regular. Therefore, the ability of loading and unloading and handling machinery and equipment can be fully utilized in the operation process, and it is convenient to realize the automatic control operation process . Mechanization and automation can greatly shorten the stay time of vehicles and ships at the port station and speed up the delivery of goods.

5. Reduce freight transportation costs

As a result of the unified cargo unit, the efficiency of the reloading link facilities is greatly improved, thereby reducing the cost of loading and unloading. At the same time, the safety of cargo transportation is significantly improved by adopting the container method. So that insurance costs have decreased.

6. Promote the standardization of commodity packaging

With the use of container house as a large-scale standardized transportation equipment, further standardization of commodity packaging has been promoted. At present, China has nearly 400 national packaging standards. Most of these standards adopt or refer to international standards, and many packaging standards are compatible with container standards.

7. Conducive to multimodal transportation

With the emergence of containers as a standard transportation unit, the carrying dimensions of various transportation vehicles have developed in a unified direction to meet the needs of container house transportation. Therefore, various transportation vehicles designed according to the standard push container will make the interchange and connection between transportation tools more convenient. Therefore, container transportation is conducive to organizing the combined transportation of multiple transportation methods.
