Sea Freight (also called Ocean Freight) involves the use of ocean vessels to ship goods from China to Sweden. It is the cheapest and slowest form of delivery, but is best for large freight such as heavy machinery.

You can transport your sea freight from China to Sweden using two methods – LCL shipments and FCL shipments. When you secure the services of a leading freight forwarder in China, the process of sea freight shipping from China to Sweden will be made easier for you. When you contact Winsky Freight, you can get this process started.

Less than Container Load (LCL) is your best bet when your shipment is too small to justify paying for a container. Instead, you pay for a small space in a shared container. LCL Freight shipping from China to Sweden is an affordable option if you do not need much container space to ship their goods. For large and heavy shipments from China to Sweden, Full Container Load (FCL) is the ideal method for you to use. In this case, you are paying for a container to be used for your shipment alone. You can get a 20 ft or 40 ft container exclusive to your shipment.

If sea freight is too slow and cost is not a problem for you, then you should consider air freight from China to Sweden is for you. Direct flights from China to Sweden start from airports in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Ningbo, Shanghai and so on. However, the price is much more expensive for the speed direct flight.

When to consider air freight when shipping from China to Sweden:

• You are shipping perishable goods such as vegetables and flowers
• You are shipping small volume, high value goods such as diamonds and rare artworks
• Your goods are very small and are needed urgently
• You simply want your shipment within days

If you meet any of these conditions, then contact Winsky Freight to begin the process of air freight shipping from China to Sweden.

Express courier shipping services are available from China to Sweden. It is a ‘door-to-door’ service. It is performed by courier services such as DHL, UPS and FedEx. They offer a complete shipping package. They will pick up the shipment at a specified location, sort out the relevant issues with customs and shipping regulations, transport the goods into Sweden and deliver at any location of your choosing (including your doorstep). In return you pay a single fee to cover all of their expenses.

As you can expect, this is faster than air freight. The express courier handles all the processing so you don’t have to do anything except to make the shipment available for pickup. You can still make use of a freight forwarder in China to stay on top of the entire logistics process for you while your shipment moves from the seller/manufacturer in China to you in Sweden.

However, express courier is typically more expensive than air freight. It is only recommended if you who have very small volume of time-sensitive goods to ship.

If slow delivery via sea freight is not an option and you can’t afford air freight, go for rail freight from, China to Sweden. It is faster than sea freight and a lot cheaper than air freight.

Importers from China have been using rail freight since 2011 and Sweden is not left out. Between then and now, there have been a lot of improvements in rail freight infrastructure and processes. Rail freight costs half the price of air freight and is almost 50% faster than sea freight.

While rail freight might not be very popular, it does have qualities that are worth considering:

• Cost-effectiveness. For many people, air freight is simply too expensive and sea freight is too slow. Rail freight strikes the perfect balance between time and cost.
• Environmental concern. People who are concerned about global warming will be happy to know that rail freight causes far less CO2-emissions when compared to air freight. That means less cost and less pollution.
• Relatively short delivery time. Average shipment delivery from China to Sweden is 23 days. That is a lot less than the estimated 35-45 days delivery time for sea freight.
