The International Road Transport is the only type of transport capable of carrying out a door-to-door service on its own, that is, it can collect the good at the exporter's factory and deliver it directly to the importer.

It is also a type of transport that facilitates the loading and unloading operations.

Due to its flexibility; it is also an essential mode of transport for the factories working on Just-In-Time basis.
