Beginning the process is difficult due to insufficient information. It's unclear which transportation option is optimal and why contractors offer varying prices and terms.
You agreed to a specific shipment term, but the terms are being stretched by 30-40% under the typical argument of 'customs queues.'
The shipping budget unexpectedly changes, which is not in your favor. You agreed on one transportation fee, but as soon as the contractor receives the cargo or it is in transit, you obtain a bill for a higher cost.
The customer initially received a low shipping price for their cargo, but unfortunately, the cargo was later detained and seized at customs due to incorrect documentation provided by the carrier. The carrier chose to document the cargo incorrectly in an attempt to reduce costs, which ultimately resulted in the cargo being confiscated by customs.
The worst-case scenario is when the cargo never reaches its destination. However, it is less problematic when the cargo is delivered but arrives partially damaged. Unfortunately, in most cases, those accountable for the damaged or lost cargo cannot be found, and they may refuse to resolve the issue or impose bureaucratic procedures.
Your only option is to call and inquire about the status of your shipment.

At DiFreight, we bring our extensive expertise, offering comprehensive consultations to guide you through the process. We explain how prices are calculated, explore different delivery options for your cargo, and identify potential difficulties, equipping you to make informed decisions about potential partners.
At DiFreight, we believe in setting realistic expectations. We don't overpromise or overestimate delivery times to impress you.

With us, you can trust that your shipments will arrive when expected (typically 60 days), giving you peace of mind.
We will keep you informed about the location of your cargo, either automatically or upon request. With our automated systems, you can always see the whereabouts of your cargo.
When you request a shipping cost estimate, we collect comprehensive information about your goods, such as weight, volume, and value. Based on this information, we provide you with an accurate quote. However, we will make a final price fix only after we receive your goods at our warehouse in China. We carefully verify the accuracy of all information you provided us with during the initial pricing calculation. You can rest assured that the price we quote will remain the same and won't change.
We declare everything we transport, eliminating any customs-related issues. However, please note that we cannot assist with specific categories of goods, including weapons, food, pharmaceuticals, and top-brand products.
We prioritize your privacy and that of your suppliers and never share your information with third parties. We respectfully decline any requests for client or supplier information.
We want to assure you that your cargo is insured from the moment it arrives at our warehouse in China until it reaches its destination in Ukraine. Our team of in-house staff and dedicated warehouses in both countries allow us to maintain a seamless flow of our business processes and easily monitor the integrity of your cargo. However, in the unlikely event of minor damage, we will fully compensate you and offer a discount.
We carefully plan our shipments by consolidating the cargo at specialized warehouses, loading it onto our containers, and dispatching it to the destination. All import containers are unloaded in Poland. Thanks to our tight shipping schedules, we offer only optimized solutions, ensuring reliable delivery from China.
