For cross-border e-commerce and foreign trade enterprises, sending electrical products to Indonesia's overseas warehouse is an important step to expand the Southeast Asian market. However, many businessmen have questions about the transportation cost calculation, especially the price difference between whole container and bulk cargo. This article will provide you with a detailed analysis of the price calculation of electrical appliances sent to Indonesia overseas warehouse.
First, the goods are already in Indonesia
If your electrical products are already in Indonesia (such as local factories or warehouses), only need to be shipped to the designated overseas warehouse, the cost is relatively simple:
1. Inbound unloading fee
20GP whole container: 400 yuan / cabinet
40GP / 40HQ / 45HQ whole container: 600 yuan / cabinet
Bulk: free unloading
2. Product shelving fee (classified according to the size of the product)
mini pieces / small pieces (the sum of three sides ≤ 60CM): 600 yuan / cabinet 2. Product shelf fee (by size) mini pieces / small pieces (three sides Mini/ small piece (sum of three sides ≤60CM): RMB 0.1/pc
Medium piece (sum of three sides ≤100CM): RMB 0.3/pc
Large piece (sum of three sides ≤150CM): RMB 0.5/pc
3. Warehousing fee
Jakarta warehouse: RMB 100/month/cubic meter
Tanggelang warehouse: RMB 50/month/cubic meter (out of the order of the slow cargoes may be 90 RMB/month/cubic meter)
Newly warehoused cargoes can enjoy the preferential treatment for the storage fee
Cargoes from China to Indonesia Shipment to Indonesia
If your electrical appliances need to be shipped from China to Indonesia by sea and then warehoused, the cost calculation is more complicated and needs to be combined with the cost of both sea transportation and overseas warehousing.
1. Sea freight calculation (key factor)
The sea freight cost of electrical appliances mainly depends on their classification:
(1) General sensitive electrical appliances ($2270/CBM)
Including: lamps and lanterns (except for motorcycle lamps car lamps, etc.), 32-inch TVs, non-fluorocarbon refrigerators, washing machines, rice cookers, fans, irons/steam irons, blenders, non-fluorocarbon air-conditioners, electric stoves, vacuum cleaners, air purifiers, massage tools, stereos, mixers, speakers, projectors, etc.
(2) Sensitive goods (Indonesia Customs SNI goods, 2600RMB/CBM)
Including: large wood products, iron quota products, tires, large machines, some special appliances, etc.
(3) General cargo category (1780RMB/CBM)
Other electrical products that do not belong to the above two categories.
Billing rules:
1 cubic meter weight limit 500KG
Minimum consumption 0.3 cubic meters
Calculation of overweight: actual weight/500KG = number of billable cubic meters
Quoted price includes double clearing and tax package
Includes free delivery to Central, West and North Jakarta
2. Strategies for choosing between full containers and break bulk
(1) Full Container Transportation
Suitable for businessmen with large volume of goods with the advantages of:
Higher loading and unloading efficiency
Better security of the goods
Overall cost may be lower
Full Container Specification: 20GP: about 28CBM
40GP: about 58CBM
40HQ: about 68CBM
(2) Bulk transportation (LCL)
Suitable for merchants with smaller cargo volume:
Billed according to the actual volume
High flexibility
No need to bear the cost of the whole container
3. Overseas warehouse costs (the same as the first part of the)
How to get the most accurate quotes?
In order to get the most accurate transportation cost calculation, you need to prepare the following information:
Cargo Information
Specific appliance name and model
Total Cargo Volume (CBM)
Total Weight (KG)
Number of Pieces
Packing Dimensions (Length, Width and Height)
Whether Special Packing (e.g. Wooden Shelf) is Needed
Transportation Information
Place of Shipment (Specific City in China / Specific Location in Indonesia)
Place of Destination (Specific Address in Indonesia)
Desired Mode of Transportation (FCL / Break Bulk)
Statute of Limitations Requirements Whether there are special time limit requirements
Expectation of the storage cycle
IV. Professional suggestions for cost reduction
Mixed crating strategy: reasonably match different categories of electrical appliances to optimize the utilization of cabinet space
Seasonal purchasing: avoid shipments during peak seasons (e.g., before and after the Chinese New Year) to get a better price
Packaging optimization: compress the volume of the packaging as much as possible without affecting the safety of the products
Long-term cooperation: establish a long-term cooperation relationship with the logistics provider to get a more favorable agreed price Long-term cooperation: establish long-term cooperation with logistics service providers, and strive for more favorable agreement price
Tax planning: understand Indonesia's customs policy, and make reasonable declaration to avoid extra costs.
