Recently we sent ten used Japanese trucks to our customer in Thailand. We used a special technique to ship the trucks to cut down shipping costs. This is a good news for our Asian customers (Thailand, Indonesia, Singaore, Malaysia, Laos, Philipppines etc). To save on shipping cost, we shipped two trucks in a unit package as shown in the following figure.

Japanese Used Truck

In this example, the shipping cost per truck was approximately 350,000 Yen. However the shipping cost for 2 trucks sent in a unit package was only about 400,000 yen. Thus there was a saving of about 300,000 yen !!
