Benefits
Cost-effective comparatively to other methods
Easy to manoeuvre heavy or large products with ease
Inexpensive over long distances
Most Carbon-efficient solution
Disadvantages
Obviously one of the largest cons when it comes to sea freight is time, as it is the slowest option for moving products
The price is unsustainable for smaller amounts of goods
Sea freight is economically and environmentally superior to other forms of product delivery service, but only if you are looking to transport large quantities or if the destination country is far away. However, even with the option of LCL, courier services and Air Freight may still be better options depending on the product in question.
