GOH SERVICE • AIR FREIGHT
In order to decide whether to use GOH or have the garments sent flat packed and re-ironed at destination, it is essential to know the shipment cost per piece
Main question: How many pieces will fit into an air freight container?
Factors are: - the quality and thickness of the fabrics used - the type of hanger - the length of the garments and polybags
The following table shows the approximate number of pieces that can fit into (tailor-made) 1-, 2- and 3-bar containers and airline containers (LD 3, LD 7 and AQ6).
