Glossary Break Bulk

Break Bulk refers to the process of separating and handling large quantities of goods into smaller units for transportation. For example, it involves unpacking and separating cargo that has been loaded in bulk onto a ship and transporting it in smaller pallets or boxes. This method is useful when large quantities of goods need to be transported, but they have different destinations or purposes. Using the 'Break Bulk' method, goods can be transported to multiple destinations or handled appropriately upon arrival. It is also a relatively cost-effective way to transport goods.
