　　How can sellers spare the first journey freight

　　1：Reasonable distribution

　　As far as LCL is concerned,the distribution settlement standard of local trucks in the United States is not based on cubic or kilogram,nor is it based on pallets.FBA maritime personalized,reduce the risk of FBA inventory backlog caused by unsalable:products stored in FBA warehouse are associated with account numbers,and the same products cannot be sold in multiple accounts.In this way,it is likely that the same products will be sold out of stock in some FBA warehouses,but not in other warehouses at the same time.The above risks can be effectively avoided by using FBA first pass overseas warehouse and transshipment in batches.For example,sellers who often make the first journey of FBA will find that the delivery cost of trucks does not increase linearly with these data,and the delivery price of two cubic meters is not much more than that of one cubic meter.The main reference is based on which area the total cubic number falls in and the target aim of the tray.

　　FBA warehouse allocation assistant;the simple way to teach you is that the total cubic number of goods allocated is 2.An integral multiple of 5 cubic meters,the total height of each two pallets is close to 2.4 meters,instead of each pallet hitting the FBA warehouse requirements of 1.The height limit of 8 meters.In this way,the U.S.local billing rules can be used to reduce unit cost.Of course,this can not be generalized.In addition,there are some factors that will affect the unit cost of the first journey,such as the product name and the proportion of weight and volume.

　　2：Use the aft compartment

　　3：China US LCL to door

　　At present,the sellers often send a small batch of goods of dozens of kilograms to the FBA warehouse by commercial express.FBA saves the first journey cost:domestic FBA logistics's first sea transportation service is specially designed for B2C cross-border e-commerce sellers.Compared with the traditional sea transportation LCL service,the initial transportation volume is lower,the charging items are simpler,and the overall cost is lower,which can help you greatly reduce the first journey cost of FBA.FBA head journey is diversified and suitable for all kinds of products:if you are in a hurry to replenish goods,you can use express or air freight;if you value cost,you can use sea transportation.But it is not all because the goods are eager to be sold,but because small goods are more expensive by sea than by commercial express.This is because the traditional billing method has a lower charging amount in both LCL and truck delivery,and a professional company with sufficient scale can lower the threshold.The mini LCL channel contains less than 67 kg.For those small goods that are not in a hurry to enter the warehouse and those small goods that are sent to more than one FBA warehouse at a time,mini LCL is a suitable choice,which can significantly reduce the initial cost.
