MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION
Multimodal transportation — represents performance of cargo transportation under one Contract , but by means of at least two means of transport. In this case, the company is responsible for the whole freight, even if such a transportation is performed by means of different modes of transport (e.g. by railway, by sea and by road, etc.).
"Laross-T" is one of the most experienced (since 1995) multimodal transport operators (MTO) in Russia. The success consists of a systematic approach to freight traffic arrangement.

As contrasted with "traditional" freight with one means of transport, multimodal or "mixed" transport connection first of all takes into account cargo requirements, not the mode of transport, and provides an integrated transport process between the consignor and the consignee.
