Maelezo
Road transport offers the convenience of delivering goods directly from the origin to the destination without the need for intermediate handling at terminals. This is known as door-to-door delivery. Unlike other means of transport, such as rail or air transport, where goods often need to be transferred and handled at terminals, road transport allows for seamless transportation from the shipper's location to the recipient's location.
