Frequently asked questions

How much does shipping from China to Central Asia cost?

There is no single per-kilogram rate. A quotation depends on origin, destination city, cargo profile, pieces / weight / volume, the border crossing used, and whether customs clearance and door delivery are required. Every charge is itemised in writing before booking.

Check before you book

  • Ask for an itemised quote, not one lump sum
  • Confirm which charges are included at the border
  • Confirm whether door delivery is included for your address
How long does road freight to Central Asia take?

Transit time is not fixed. It depends on border conditions, inspection rates, document readiness and the destination city. We confirm an expected transit window in writing for each consignment rather than publishing a standard number of days.

Check before you book

  • Document completeness is the biggest controllable factor
  • Ask about alternative border crossings
  • Confirm the delivery window in writing
What documents are needed for China–Central Asia road freight?

Typically a commercial invoice, packing list, sales contract, export declaration data and complete consignee details. Special cargo (batteries, chemicals, oversized items) may require additional declarations or permits. The exact list is confirmed per shipment.

Check before you book

  • Keep consignee names identical across all documents
  • Declare battery or chemical goods up front
  • Confirm permit requirements before the cargo moves
Can you deliver door to door?

Door delivery is assessed per consignment. The delivery address, unloading conditions and any city access restrictions must be confirmed during quotation. We do not promise blanket coverage for every city or district.

Check before you book

  • Provide the exact delivery address before booking
  • Describe unloading conditions on site
  • Get delivery scope written into the quotation
Which border crossings do you use?

Khorgos, Alashankou, Irkeshtam and Torugart are compared for each consignment. The choice depends on the destination country, where the cargo sits inside China and current border conditions, rather than locking every shipment onto a single crossing.

Check before you book

  • Ask which crossing is planned and why
  • Ask what the backup crossing is
What do you need to quote my shipment?

Five items: origin city in China, destination country and city, goods description with pieces / weight / volume, whether clearance and door delivery are required, and the target shipping date with the delivery address.
