We use the services of Bali Intercont Cargo.

Shipping is available by Sea or by Air.

Air Freight is the fastest and most expensive means of transporting a shipment. Rates are calculated by weight and charged per kg
and (volumetric weight).

Sea Freight is the most economical means of transporting goods.
There are two main ways to send goods by sea freight.

LCL - Less than Container Load - LCL shipments are for a given quantity of goods that do not meet a
specific full container minimum. Subsequently, the goods are placed in a wooden crate specifically
designed to the size of your order. LCL shipments carry some risk especially for goods that may be
considered fragile. LCL shipments are handled more frequently according to Indonesia law; they are
loaded in Bali, unloaded and then reloaded in Java, unloaded and then reloaded in Singapore, and
unloaded at the destination.

Because of the increased handling that comes with LCL shipments we do advise that buyers purchase
insurance before shipping to cover against any damage incurred during the transiting of the goods.
Insurance is generally charged at 2% of the total of the goods being shipped. Benz International
recommends QBE insurance and would be more than happy to arrange any business regarding
insurance for you.
FCL - Full Container Load - FCL Shipments are available in 20ft (30cbm), 40ft (60cbm), and 40ft high
cube (64cbm). These containers are subject to considerably less handling as they are loaded in Bali
and unloaded only at the destination.

FCL shipments become considerably more economical than LCL once a shipment exceeds 13cmb.
Local clearance charges are per cubic meter or per container. Once that threshold of 13cmb is passed
it is most often more cost effective to ship with Full Container Loads.

Local Handling Upon Reaching Destination - Our relationship with Bali Intercont offers us an
international network of dealing agents and customs brokers. These professionals assist in the
clearance of any shipment once it arrives into port. Often times our colleagues at Bali Intercont can
offer further assistance with delivery overland to your business or residence. All handling charges for
these services are paid for at the local destination.

International shipping costs change regularly. Current rates to a particular destination can be given
upon contacting us at cbenz@benzintl.com or Bali Intercont directly intercont@telkom.net

You are free to use your own broker if you so choose and we would be happy to assist with that in
anyway. However, we must remind you that our trust and confidence in Bali Intercont has come from a
very successful and reliable continuing business relationship. Bali Intercont is both reliable and effecient,
while consistently offering the most competitive cargo shipping rates.
