Research package efficiency general cargo

Numerous studies in the field of packaging of general cargo confirm the effectiveness of the implementation of package transportation, especially in the presence of multiple congestion in the supply chain. However, today it is necessary to supplement the research, taking into account the comparison of the means of packaging, depending on various values of the parameters of the transport packaging. In this regard, the aim of the study is to search for rational shipping containers depending on various parameters that affect the final cost of delivery in supply chains. The main reasons for the backwardness of the countries of the former Soviet Union in the delivery of general cargo from economically developed countries is the lack of feasibility studies and specific organizational measures for the implementation of package transportation. Both of these circumstances acquire special meaning and significance in the conditions of a developing and in our country market economy. The objective of this article was to show that the delivery of general cargo is influenced by various factors, such as the size of vehicles, type of transport packaging, methods of stacking cargo units on transport packaging, etc. which are described in the article. The study applied economic criteria and principles of transport logistics and identified the scope of transport packaging for the delivery of general cargo based on specific technical and economic indicators. As a result of the study, the field of application of transport packaging has been determined depending on the specified parameters of the container-packing cargo. The necessity of a complete feasibility study of package transportation is shown, the costs of using transport packaging, as well as the cost of forming a transportation package, should be taken into account.
