Transportation Solutions
Bofeng Logistics provides multiple transportation solutions from Zibo to Hong Kong.
Road Transfer: Goods are sent from Zibo via domestic long-haul transport to a Zhuhai/Shenzhen transfer warehouse. After consolidation and customs clearance are completed at the transfer warehouse, they are connected to a China-Hong Kong vehicle, enter Hong Kong through the border crossing, and are delivered to the designated location. Total door-to-door transit time is about 4-7 days.
Direct Sea Freight: From Zibo's nearest port (Qingdao Port), goods are shipped directly by sea to Hong Kong Port. After arrival at port, they are picked up and delivered to the designated location.
