Freight companies are companies that specialise in the moving (or "forwarding") of freight, or cargo, from one place to another. These companies are divided into several variant sections. For example, international freight forwarders ship goods internationally from country to country, and domestic freight forwarders, ship goods within a single country.Shipping MethodsThere are various methods of shipping goods; by air, road, sea, or rail.
