What is a mass load?

Bulk Cargo refers to any product that is not separately packed, but is rather loaded into a single large shipping container. In most cases, it is a commodity such as grain or oil, where the product can come from more than one manufacturer, but goes to the same customer or at least the same intermediary. The mass cargo can be supplied in this way, because the product is almost uniform, regardless of who is the producer and is generally sold by weight or volume.

In most cases, special equipment is required to move the mass load from one place to another. Light freight transport often involves the use of airtight containers that help the product product from moisture and other possible hazards. The cargo can be sent in these containers by air, truck, rail, boat or boat, depending on the final location and any method is cheaper or faster for the client.

If transport by sea, a specialized mass cost can be used. This ship has a huge amount of storage in hollow areas inside the fuselage. Most ships are used to transport dry goods or liquids and very little move from transport one product to the other by a frequent base. For example, an oil tanker will usually perform this function throughout the lifetime. If the switch were, thorough cleaning and possibly cost changes may be needed.

Since this type of cargo is not packed, loading becomes another problem, because traditional methods often do not work. Instead, a truck or ship usually moves under a loading arm of a type. Then the product is transferred to the costs of this loading arm. In the case of liquid, this may not take much more than just open the valve. Some products such as the quarry rocks may be moved alongThis loading arm with a transport belt of some type.

The value of the majority of bulk cargo is usually determined by the commodity market, which is the market where they are traded with raw materials. Those interested in buying commodities often do not do the product itself, but rather speculate that they will increase value. At a certain point in the contract, these speculators must sell or accept the delivery of a mass cost. Most traders do not have the practical use of the product itself and therefore must sell even if it is for loss.
