Combined transport - Combi-transport - Intermodal transport
Combined or intermodal transport refers to shipments of goods where loading units are forwarded by at least two different means of transport.
Advantages of combined transport at a glance:
- Pick-up and delivery on the road is kept as short as possible
- Climate and environmentally friendly transport
Road haulage is only used over short distances, for example to take the goods being transported to the railway or sea or to pick the goods up again at the point of unloading. Using combined transport reduces CO2 emissions and the energy consumption per loading unit.
