It is important to know that there are three methods of transporting goods that each one has advantages and disadvantages that we will describe separately.
Ground transportation
Ground transportation is one of the oldest and also cheapest methods of transporting goods, which also includes a large volume of exportations and importations from Iran’s neighbors. It includes two methods: road and rail. The advantages of this method include: its availability and reasonable price compared to the air and sea methods, it takes less time than the sea method, it includes less packaging costs and also it does not include unloading loads in ports. It is the best method for short routes and exportation to neighboring countries.
Disadvantages
It is less secure, it cannot be used for trade and commerce from distant countries, if the goods are perishable and there is a possibility of corruption in the long way and is not possible for high volume trade and commerce.
Railroad transportation
Railroad transportation by freight trains is another method of transporting ground goods, which also has advantages and disadvantages. Its advantages include: high security of goods, lower prices than the sea and the air methods, one of the best methods for transporting mineral goods, and also the climate issues do not affect this method.

Iran also has two seas including the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz in the south and the Caspian Sea in the north, through which a large amount of the country’s goods are exported to other countries. This method also has advantages and disadvantages, which we will discuss below.

In this method, freight terminals and airports are used. For example, in Iran, Payam Karaj Airport is a freight airport for commercial goods. This method is less demanding due to being more expensive than the methods above, but now it has advantages and disadvantages.
