Perks of the end of Daylight Savings Time, and how International Shipping Benefits!!

This past Sunday, November 2nd, Americans all over the country put their clocks one hour back for the end of daylight savings time. 

But how does daylight savings relate to international shipping services? 

Although there has been a lot of debate about whether daylight savings is necessary, there are a few positives to changing the time back. 

• The sun is already out when you are waking up! 

This usually means everyone is less grumpy in the morning, and you don't have to go to work in the darkness! You will be more awake and ready to ship cargo internationally with a reliable international shipping company, and K International Transport will be happy to help!

• You feel like you are getting an hour more of sleep! 

Since it gets darker earlier, people feel as though they are sleeping more (because they usually are! We tend to sleep as it gets dark). When you wake up refreshed, K International Transport will be able to help you ship cargo from ports in the U.S, including New York, Maryland, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Texas, California, and more! 

• Everyone else is doing it! 

Now you don't want to accidentally wake up an hour late, just because you didn't change the time on your alarm clock, do you? Even if you are late, K International Transport can ship cargo quickly and efficiently, so your business will get done no matter what!

Election Day and International Shipping!!

Today, November 4th, 2014, was election day. Although the United States is one of the most democratic countries in the world, the country is known for notoriously low voter turnout, especially during midterm elections! 

So what are the midterm elections, and how can they impact international shipping services?

Here are some facts about the midterm elections, as well as its connection to international shipping companies like K International Transport: 

• Midterm elections happen halfway through the president's term in office.

•  They help select members of Congress: members for the House of Representatives and the Senate

• This year, all 435 members of the House are being chosen, and 33 members of the Senate are chosen. 

• As of now, the republican party controls the House AND the Senate. 

So why are the elections important for international shipping? 

Congress proposes many laws influencing international relations and treaties with other countries. These treaties in turn can affect international shipping services and regulations. It is important to vote to protect not only self-interest, but also the international shipping interests of the nation!
