Freight and shipping are two terms that are interconnected. Each method poses challenges, advantages, and disadvantages of their own and, shouldn’t be used interchangeably. Both shipping and freight are the transportation of goods either by air, land, or sea. Although shipping and freight are both used to describe the bulk transportation of goods, freight always refers to a larger quantity of goods while shipping can refer to a smaller amount. Freight denotes commercial purposes. The shipping of goods can be done for either commercial or personal purposes. Shipping is generally considered to be more expensive than freight since it is cheaper to transport goods in bulk than in smaller amounts.
