Inland water transport refers to shipping on inland waterways - rivers and canals. Inland waterway logistics therefore includes the transportation of various goods on inland waterways.
Compared to other modes of transportation, inland waterway shipping is more environmentally friendly due to its high transport capacity and comparatively low energy consumption. The combination of high payloads and low manpower requirements also makes inland waterway shipping a cost-effective mode of transport. It also reduces congestion on the rail and road networks.
The duration of the transport depends largely on the distance to be covered.
There are almost no limits to inland waterways logistics - from bulk goods to general cargo, from waste to GMP goods, virtually any type of cargo can be transported.
