What are the main characteristics of bulk logistics?

Large logistics and small logistics are two common modes of transportation in the logistics industry. The two are different in transportation mode, operation flow and matters needing attention. This paper will discuss the difference between large logistics and small logistics and the matters needing attention in large logistics.

First of all, there are obvious differences between large logistics and small logistics in transportation mode. Small pieces of logistics usually adopt standardized logistics box, pallets or packaging, and are distributed centrally through express delivery and logistics companies. However, large-scale logistics needs to be transported by special equipment and vehicles, because large items are usually large in size, heavy in weight or special in shape and cannot be delivered by conventional express delivery. Therefore, large-scale logistics usually needs professional transportation teams and equipment.

Secondly, there are some differences between large-scale logistics and small-scale logistics in the operation process. The operation of small logistics is relatively simple, which usually only needs basic links such as packaging, sorting and distribution. However, the operation of large-scale logistics is more complicated and needs the coordination and handling of multiple links. For example, bulk logistics requires a series of operations such as packaging, loading, transportation, distribution and installation of goods, and each link needs accurate arrangement and coordination to ensure the safe transportation and smooth delivery of goods.

It is worth noting that large-scale logistics needs to pay special attention to the following points in the operation process. First of all, it is necessary to reasonably choose the appropriate transportation modes and tools, and determine the best transportation scheme according to the characteristics and requirements of the goods. For example, ultra-long goods can be transported by flat-bed transport vehicles or special shipping methods. Secondly, we should pay attention to the packaging and fixing of the goods to ensure that the goods will not collide, be damaged or fall off during transportation. At the same time, large-scale logistics needs to pay attention to the requirements of height limit and width limit of roads and bridges, as well as unexpected situations that may be encountered during transportation, and take corresponding safety precautions. Finally, large-scale logistics needs to communicate and coordinate with relevant departments and institutions to ensure the smooth progress of all links.

In a word, there are some differences between large logistics and small logistics in transportation mode, operation process and matters needing attention. Large-scale logistics needs professional transportation teams and equipment, and the operation process is relatively complicated. Pay attention to the reasonable packaging and fixing of goods, and communicate and coordinate with relevant departments. Only through careful management and careful operation can we ensure the safe transportation and smooth delivery of large-scale logistics.
