How shipping works with HQ

The route choice should show its assumptions.

Packed dimensions, weight, product restrictions, destination and delivery target decide which available option is worth comparing.

Route availability

Start with the product, packed dimensions and destination.

HQ checks the shipment profile before comparing suitable express, postal, special-line, air or other available routes. Not every route accepts every product.

Speed vs. cost, on the table

You choose the tradeoff, not us.

Air is fast and pricey. Sea is cheap and slow. We lay out both numbers per SKU and let you pick the lane that fits your margin.

What HQ handles

  • Per-SKU landed cost, not a vague average

Shipping questions, answered straight.

We cover the US, Europe, and China lanes well. That's where our volumes are, so that's where our rates are sharpest. Other lanes we can quote, but we won't pretend they're as cheap.

Mostly, yes — and several times the price. But some lanes surprise you. We quote both every time, so you're choosing with numbers, not assumptions.

Depends on the lane and the Incoterm. We can run it DDP so your customer pays nothing at the door, or DAP if you'd rather handle duties yourself. We'll lay out which makes sense.

Whoever's terms you're on, usually us if we booked the lane. Either way, we chase the carrier and the claim — you don't sit on hold with a courier.

It happens around peak season and port strikes. We see the delay early and offer the reroute or the honest new date, so you can tell your customer before they ask.
