Semi Knocked Down/Completely Knocked down( CKD/SKD)

In certain cases, the goods required to be transported are so huge that it is practically impossible to carry the same in a single transport vehicle.  Additionally, in certain cases, it is logistical convenient to move the goods in parts rather than move the entire goods in a single transport.

These are referred to as Semi Knocked Down (SKD) or Completely Knocked Down (CKD) goods.  In these cases, the goods are being supplied under the cover of a single invoice but more than one vehicle is used for transport of such vehicles.

Example- Crane is being supplied from Gurgaon to Kerala under a single invoice but for logistical convenience, the crane is partially knocked down and shipped in say three trucks.

nicely explained ... Mr Vinod
