What types of goods are suitable for cross-border e-commerce small package logistics for shipping

Cross border e-commerce small package logistics is a cross-border logistics form specially designed for light and small items weighing less than 2kg. It focuses on low cost, wide coverage, door-to-door, and is suitable for retail scenarios directly shipped by cross-border e-commerce platforms. The core adaptation principles are cargo weight ≤ 2kg, low single ticket value, small volume, and general cargo attributes. At the same time, some dedicated small packages can undertake a small amount of compliant and sensitive goods, making it the core logistics choice for small and medium-sized sellers doing global retail.

Its adapted products are divided around four core dimensions: weight, volume, value, and attributes. While clarifying the types of adaptation, it also delineates the boundaries of avoiding pitfalls. Next, Baiyun.com will classify and break them down according to core adaptation, niche adaptation, and absolute unsuitability, catering to the practical shipping needs of mainstream cross-border platforms such as Amazon, AliExpress, Shopee, and Temu. Novices can directly compare and match them.
