Trucking freight costs are based on the The National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC) standard and differ from how air and ocean freightcosts are calculated. All commodities fall into one of 18 classes between a low of 50 to a high of 500 based on four transportation characteristics: density, storability, handling and liability.
For clients who want to further reduce costs, UCT provides intermodal freight transport. Freight is transported in a container by a combination of rail and truck, without any additional handling of the freight itself. Rail service helps to improve security, reduce damages and loss, and meet scheduled delivery times.

UCT offers expedited air freight shipping services for time-critical shipments. Our network of scheduled air cargo carriers moves cargo fast and efficiently and when combined with express trucking, can give you critical delivery options other logistic companies simply can’t.
Typically air cargo either ships on a pallet or as loose cargo. Palletized goods are assembled and secured by nets and straps before being loaded as a unit onto an airplane. Loose cargo is delivered to an airline as separate packages and loaded and unloaded onto airplanes (or ULDs) by airline employees. Air freight shipping costs are based on actual weight or dimensional weight, whichever is greater.
UCT’S air cargo services include tracking your shipments by monitoring them in the air and on the ground to ensure safe, timely delivery.
