About cargo transportation
It is not difficult to deliver things from Russia to Armenia. There are many transport companies engaged in international cargo transportation on the service market.
Shipping cost depends on:
- weight;
- dimensions;
- places of departure;
- urgency of delivery;
- delivery method (auto, railway, air) of cargo.
The minimum price for transporting 15 kg of items varies from about 3,000 rubles to 9,500 rubles. Please note that some companies do not accept cargo less than 45–50 kg.
To arrange delivery, you will need a passport, an inventory and an invoice (filled in at the reception point).
Most often, the goods are delivered by road carriers. The road lies through the Upper Lars checkpoint on the border with Georgia. Sometimes the passage is closed due to weather conditions, so there are delays. For example, in winter the road is closed due to heavy snow. You can follow the situation in Telegram: group "Upper Lars SITUATION AT THE CHECKPOINT", chat "Upper Lars Chat".
Average delivery time is eight days.
