8.  Intermodal Transportation
• Intermodal transportation uses a combination of different
transport carriers and is sometimes better to achieve the best
total shipping cost for door to door movements. It does,
however, require more logistics coordination and hands-on
involvement.

Multimodal Transport

9.  Multimodal Transport
• Multimodal Transport uses a single transport carrier to
provide a door to door movement, which may achieve the
best routing. Multimodal requires less logistics coordination
and paperwork, but the carrier holds liabilities and
responsibilities for the entire shipment duration.
