Transport Costs – Transport can be divided into 3 phases:
(i) Delivery to docks, airport or railway station.
(ii) Transport from one terminal to another.
(iii) Delivery from the terminal to the consignee’s place.
In the cost-benefit analysis of the turnaround time of a company’s delivery and collection vehicles, their man hour costs can be significant. Some customers may find this item to be more costly than the cost of the major journey.
