But individual consignment either big or small normally booked through air cargo service
Sometimes it is not possible due to the nature of goods being transported and the receiver needs to compete for documentation before collection of the consignment. In this situation, home delivery is not possible. Whatever means you select for your goods transportation either individual or on the commercial level you can get rates without leaving your place.
Ocean cargo is also an option and when you go with it make sure you have enough time and patience. There is no need to make a comparison of charges of air and ocean cargo. But individual consignment either big or small normally booked through air cargo service.
There are reasons behind this selection. Foremost is the minimum load limit, individual parcels do not meet this limit of minimum size and weight of consignment. The other one time required for delivery, which is at least of a couple of weeks.
These two reasons are the biggest hurdles for small parcel senders to book their parcels through ocean cargo service. There is no real urge from this sector of the cargo industry to appeal to individuals as the commercial consignment business continuously rising.

The UK is the biggest trade partner of Pakistan in Europe
Trade of goods is largely carried out through ocean cargo with few exceptions. This is why ocean freight service caters for a huge portion of the world trade of goods.
