Read a random definition: artifice

A quick definition of multimodal shipping:

Multimodal shipping refers to the transportation of goods using multiple modes of transportation and carriers. This means that a shipment may be transported by air or sea, and then transferred to a truck or train to reach its final destination. It is also known as intermodal transport or multimodal carriage.

A more thorough explanation:

MULTIMODAL SHIPPING

Multimodal shipping is the transportation of goods using multiple modes of transportation and often involves more than one carrier. For instance, a shipment may be transported by air or sea, and then by rail or truck to its final destination. This type of shipping is also known as intermodal transport or multimodal carriage.

  • A shipment of electronics from China to the United States may be transported by sea to a port in California, then by truck to a warehouse in Texas.
  • A shipment of clothing from Italy to Japan may be transported by air to a hub in Hong Kong, then by sea to a port in Tokyo.

These examples illustrate how multimodal shipping involves the use of different modes of transportation and carriers to move goods from one location to another. By using multiple modes of transportation, companies can take advantage of the strengths of each mode, such as the speed of air transport and the cost-effectiveness of sea transport, to create a more efficient and cost-effective shipping process.
