Port of Houston

The Port of Houston is one of the world's largest ports and serves the metropolitan area of Houston, Texas. The Port of Houston is a 50-mile-long complex of diversified public and private facilities located a few hours' sailing time from the Gulf of Mexico. Located in the fourth-largest city in the United States, the Port of Houston is the busiest port in the U.S. in terms of foreign tonnage and the second-busiest in the U.S. in terms of overall tonnage. Though originally the Port of Houston’s terminals were primarily within the Houston city limits, the port has expanded to such a degree that today it has facilities in multiple communities in the surrounding area. In particular the Port of Houston’s busiest terminal, the Barbours Cut Terminal, is located in Morgan's Point.

The Port of Houston is a cooperative entity consisting of both the port authority, which operates the major terminals along the Houston Ship Channel, and more than 150 private companies situated along Buffalo Bayou and Galveston Bay. Many petroleum corporations have built refineries along the channel where they are partially protected from the threat of major storms in the Gulf of Mexico. The petrochemical complex associated with the Port of Houston is one of the largest in the world.

The Houston Ship Channel is experiencing tremendous growth. The Houston region, the country’s No. 1 region for exports, is home to the largest petrochemical manufacturing complex in the Americas. Energy production and the export of crude oil, along with the increasing global demand for chemicals produced in the region, are major drivers of this success for the Port of Houston.

Largely because of petrochemical activity along the 52-mile ship channel, the nearly 200 private companies that make up the Greater Port of Houston have helped make the port the No. 1 U.S. port in waterborne tonnage. Petroleum and petroleum products are leading import and export commodities at the Port of Houston.

CNXtrans no le cobra por consolidar sus paquetes en un solo envío. Esto es ideal si está comprando de múltiples proveedores/fábricas/fabricantes de Alibaba pero desea que todos sus productos se envíen juntos como un solo envío internacional para minimizar sus costos de envío. La consolidación a veces se confunde con el reempaque, pero en realidad la consolidación puede ocurrir con o sin reempaque. La consolidación simplemente se refiere al acto de enviar varios paquetes al mismo tiempo como un solo envío; no es necesario que todos se combinen en un paquete grande, siempre que se envíen juntos (al mismo tiempo), se considera un envío consolidado. Hay un cargo de envío base (que se puede considerar como un cargo de envío mínimo) para cada envío que realiza y el envío de varios paquetes al mismo tiempo (lo que constituye un envío consolidado) garantiza que solo tenga que pagar este cargo base una vez en lugar de pagar para cada paquete que se envía por separado.

 

Incluso sin volver a empaquetarlos en un solo paquete, el envío de varios paquetes al mismo tiempo lo ayuda a ahorrar porque solo se le cobra el peso de envío base una vez. Esto ayuda a reducir sus costos de envío internacional. Naturalmente, si se considera apropiado para su envío, la consolidación también puede incluir el reempaque; después de evaluar su envío, si consideramos que combinar todos los artículos en un solo paquete grande o en menos paquetes puede ayudar a reducir su peso volumétrico, lo haremos por usted. sin cargo.
