What documents are required for an Air Export?
From our clients, we need the Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and Shipper/Consignee details - the remaining documentation (MAWB, HAWB, Manifest, etc.) is our responsibility.
Is there a minimum weight or volume for shipment?
We do not have a minimum volume, but please note that small shipments tend to be charged at a minimum rate by airlines. However, Python offers cargo consolidation services, providing clients with the opportunity to save on their shipments!
Does Python have its own Warehouse?
Yes, our Warehouse in Miami is located 5 minutes from the airport, a location that contributes to our fast and efficient logistics.
How is the receiving and storage process at Python?
We have a proactive and experienced team that inspects cargo upon arrival along with its documentation and issues a warehouse receipt, which we share with the client via email. This document includes final dimensions and weights, photos of the cargo, and attached original documentation. If we verify any characteristic of the cargo different from expected (e.g., damage, missing material, etc.), we immediately communicate with the clients.
Does Python coordinate shipments containing dangerous goods?
Yes, our team is certified and experienced with dangerous goods (air and ocean modes), both in physical handling and documentation.
How does Ocean Freight work?
Ocean freight is an economical solution for transporting large volumes by sea. We handle container bookings, carrier selection, route planning, and documentation for export and import.
What is Air Freight and when should I use it?
Air freight offers fast delivery for urgent or high-value cargo. It is ideal when time is a priority, and we coordinate flight space, handling, and customs documentation.
What services are included in Import & Export?
Our import and export services include cargo booking, pre-shipment planning, documentation, compliance checks, transport coordination, and delivery arrangements.
What is Project Cargo?
Project cargo refers to the transportation of oversized, heavy, or non-standard goods that require specialized planning, specific equipment, and handling expertise.
What Warehouse Services are available?
Our warehousing services include short and long-term storage, cargo consolidation and deconsolidation, inventory control, and distribution support.
How can I track my shipment?
We offer shipment tracking and status updates throughout the transport process to ensure full visibility of your cargo.
What is necessary to provide a quote?
We need to know the mode (air or ocean), weight, and dimensions of the merchandise. Additionally, we need to know if there is temperature control, batteries, or hazardous items.
