A freight charge or freight rate is the price set to transport a specific cargo or freight from one destination to another. The freight charge depends on what type of cargo is being shipped, which type of transportation will be used (ship, train, truck, airplane), the distance to the delivery destination, and the weight of the cargo. Freight shipping companies can coordinate all aspects of the cargo transportation while providing a competitive price for freight shipping.
