Requirements to sell unclaimed cargo

Updated over a year ago

To sell your unclaimed cargo, you'll need to provide a comprehensive set of details to make your offer transparent and appealing to prospective buyers. The more information you furnish, the better your chances of attracting a legitimate buyer who meets your terms. Here's a breakdown of what you should include:

Product Description:

Provide a thorough description of the goods, mentioning aspects like dimensions, materials, manufacturing date, and any other relevant specifications. You may also highlight unique features or selling points of the cargo to make it more appealing.

Shipment Details:

Specify the type of shipment—air, sea, rail, or road—and any associated logistics, such as the point of origin and destination, and estimated delivery timelines. In the case of a sea shipment, the seller is required to indicate the container's number.

Cargo Pictures:

Visuals often provide more immediate insight than text alone. Upload high-quality pictures of the cargo from multiple angles to give buyers a better sense of what they're purchasing.

Documents:

Include copies of essential documents like the Bill of Lading (B/L), invoices, and any certificates that prove the quality or authenticity of the goods. This enhances the credibility of your offer and could speed up the sales process.

Privacy Measures:

If you wish to maintain anonymity during the initial stages of contact, you can blur out sensitive information like your company name or specific shipment details. Just remember that you'll eventually need to disclose this information for the transaction to proceed.

By diligently including these components in your listing, you increase your odds of a successful sale while offering potential buyers all the information they need to make an informed decision.
