Tramping or Linear Transportation
There are two types of sea freight shipping. First, there’s tramping, an on-demand charter service typically not available on any regular line.
If your business requires moving raw materials such as wood, iron, crude oil, and coal, tramping is your best bet.
The second type of shipment is linear transportation. This is a highly controlled and punctual service with predetermined routes and shipping intervals.
Linear transportation doesn’t require shipments to be at total capacity to be completed. Most sea freight services such as those we offer at Flavia Logistics are linear transportation.
