I. Service Overview: The “Golden Express” on the Silk Road

With the unique advantages of being faster than sea freight and more cost-effective than air freight, the China-Europe Railway Express has become the core logistics corridor connecting China with Europe and countries along the route.

Leike International Logistics has been deeply involved in rail freight for years. We provide not only standard general cargo transport but also solve industry pain points such as difficult sensitive goods transport and complex consolidation procedures through robust document pre-audit and channel integration. Whether it is bulk industrial materials or fragmented e-commerce consolidation, we ensure that cargo crosses the Eurasian continent safely and punctually.

II. Core Service Offerings

1. Standard FCL & LCL

FCL (Full Container Load): Full-process rail-supervised transport. “One container to the end” without transshipment during transit to minimize cargo damage.

LCL (Less than Container Load): Efficient consolidation solutions for small shipments with fixed weekly departures and stable lead times.

2. Specialized Sensitive Goods Transport (Industry Reputation Advantage)

Addressing the strict category requirements of rail transport, we provide compliant solutions for sensitive goods:

Scope of Carriage: Powered products (including built-in lithium batteries), branded apparel/bags (with authorization), cosmetics, certain fine chemicals, and liquid/powder cargo (subject to MSDS audit).

Professional Handling: Expert advice on specialized packaging and reinforcement to meet rail safety standards; a senior team manages customs declaration audits for sensitive items to ensure high clearance rates.

3. Cross-border E-commerce Consolidation Services

Tailored for individuals and SMEs, we offer highly flexible rail consolidation solutions:

Multi-party Collection: Free domestic distribution warehousing to support the aggregation of cargo from multiple suppliers.

One-stop Management: Sorting, labeling, packaging, warehousing, and declaration services to simplify the client’s operational process.

4. Door-to-Door & Full Tracking

End-to-End Delivery: Domestic pick-up and overseas destination clearance followed by doorstep delivery—truly realizing “from factory to warehouse.”
