What is a Shipping Window?

A Shipping Window is a specified time period during which a shipment is expected to arrive or depart from a particular location. The shipping window is typically agreed upon by the shipper and the carrier and may be influenced by factors such as the availability of transportation resources, delivery schedules, and customs clearance requirements. 

This setting is most suitable for the small production companies who have only local distribution.
