Shipment is arranged via what is called Cabotage or as Freight:

-Cabotage is when the containers are loaded with clean, boxed cargoes and then shipped from abroad, the cargo is then discharged and the container delivered to the customer. The cost is greatly reduced with this method.

-Freight is when the shipping containers are loaded onto a vessel (without cargo) and delivered as required.
