A chemical shipment was initially expected to require two 20-foot containers. Under the proposed arrangement, the combined ocean freight cost would have been approximately USD 11,200.一批化工产品最初预计需要使用两个 20 英尺集装箱。按照原方案，合计海运费约为 11,200 美元。

Our Action我们的行动
Before the order and booking were finalised, the China-based shipment team reviewed the cargo quantity, packaging configuration, weight and available container options.在订单和订舱最终确认前，中国本地出运团队审核了货物数量、包装配置、重量以及可用箱型。
The team identified that the cargo could be moved using one suitable 40-foot container instead of two separate 20-foot containers, subject to loading and weight requirements.团队确认，在满足装载及重量要求的前提下，可以使用一个合适的 40 英尺集装箱，替代两个独立的 20 英尺集装箱。

Outcome成果
The revised freight cost was approximately USD 8,200, compared with approximately USD 11,200 for the original two-container arrangement.优化后的运费约为 8,200 美元，而原两个集装箱方案的运费约为 11,200 美元。
This delivered an estimated saving of USD 3,000 on a single shipment, while reducing the number of containers and simplifying shipment coordination.单次出运预计节省 3,000 美元，同时减少集装箱数量并简化出运协调。
Container optimisation reduced estimated ocean freight from USD 11,200 to USD 8,200.通过集装箱优化，预计海运费从 11,200 美元降至 8,200 美元。
