Intermodal transportation 

Intermodal transportation

Intermodal freight transportation involves two different modes of transport, while avoiding reloading of goods from one vehicle to another. Intermodal transportation does not require reloading, as, at the time of changing the mode of transport, the goods remain in a shipping container or trailer.
Intermodal transportation is an extremely efficient, fast, relatively inexpensive, and environmentally friendly transportation method that helps reducing CO2 emissions, optimising traffic flows, and ensuring cargo safety on the roads.

Smart Shipping, UAB offers its customers to make use of the Vilnius Shuttle, Viking, Merkurijus and Saulė intermodal trains for transporting their shipments to Lithuania, Belarus, or Russia.

It should be noted that intermodal transportation of cargoes in CIS countries has to be in compliance with the terms and conditions applicable in respective countries, however, the company helps to facilitate the process of such transportation by providing our customers with the opportunity to make use of the services of a customs broker.
