Hikyaku Small-lot Chartered TransportationTMS

This service is optimal for urgent shipments that need to be sent to a distant destination.
Same-day delivery is made possible by aircraft.

We use ships to transport heavy freights and large-quantity shipments that cannot be transported by trucks.
We unload your freight after the ship arrives and deliver it to you, offering you a comprehensive service.

Our chartered vehicles go around places, such as plants and other production sites, to pick up goods. We can even transport and deliver the goods, all in one go.
The term “Milk run” came from the way dairy producers used to go around stock farms and collect raw milk to produce dairy products.

We load products from multiple manufacturers into a single vehicle and deliver the products all at once.
We can even serve as a managing company that makes arrangements with each shipper and dispatches and manages vehicles. Less frequent deliveries help consignees save time and work.
When combined with milk run, joint delivery leads to even more efficient and stable transportation.

With a plan optimally customized to your business needs, we will transport large transports, such as heavy equipment and aircraft, delicate works of art, and special transports, such as animals, based on our conventional shipping methods, Exclusive Booking and Direct Delivery.
For example, railroad cars are known for being hard to transport.
Therefore, they are transported by land at night when traffic is low according to a detailed plan. Sagawa Express can handle these types of transportation that use low-floor trailers.
We fulfill all the delivery needs for your business with our network.

A pair of our staff members deliver big furniture and home appliances whose total dimensions of the three sides exceed 160 cm (260 cm), unpack, assemble, and install them at the specified spot. This can add value to the delivery of furniture and home appliances, not only for elderly or female customers who have difficulty assembling furniture or installing home appliances, but also for customers who simply want to save the trouble. This service is applicable to the delivery to both private homes and companies.

Our just-in-time (JIT) Delivery delivers what you need when you need it, only in the quantity you need, depending on the work process at plants and other manufacturing sites. We utilize the know-how we have accumulated at automobile plants and the manufacturing sites of large architectural structures. Making use of our group’s collective strengths, we offer an integrated solution for physical distribution, ranging from procurement to the setup of VMI warehouses.

You may sometimes want to send large goods that cannot be covered by a parcel delivery service or send a large number of goods all at once. Our chartered vehicle that best suits the size and amount of the goods delivers them directly to the destination you specify. This service applies to frozen and refrigerated goods, too.

Our chartered vehicles of the size that fits the goods to transport go around multiple delivery destinations in pre-determined time zones along optimum routes. By reviewing delivery routes, you can expect cost reduction, higher work efficiency, and less environmental impact.
