As a manufacturing powerhouse, Hunan was confronted with shipping and packing difficulties of the oversized, overweighted, and non-standard parts of vehicles or heavy industrial equipment. The Xingsha Customs Authority guided and developed a special packing assisting framework for the extra large, heavy, and non-standard equipment. It can customize freight trains based on the sizes and characteristics of goods of different enterprises, which can solve the packing problems of special goods and has innovated container transport of non-standard goods in China. Some enterprises such as Zoomlion, Sinoboom, and Geely have transported their goods with the customized containers, enjoying high-efficiency and convenient international logistics service.?
