If you think about it, shipping is just moving items around. Sure, it means moving them a long distance, but it is still just moving them. Of course, moving those items is vitally important. You might need sandpaper to be shipped so you can use it to make cabinets. Or, you might need a medication shipped to your pharmacy so you can use it to treat an illness. Shipping is vital to businesses and individuals. That's one reason we decided to start this blog and write more about shipping. We think you'll enjoy learning about different shipping protocols and regulations as much as we enjoy writing about them.
