<Anchor> The



parcel delivery industry is also nervous about the shortage of urea. In particular, the situation is not good for large cargo vehicles that have to frequently refill the urea water to and from the logistics terminal, but in some cases they have already stopped operating.



Reporter Hyung-woo Jeon covered the report.



<Reporter> This



is a parcel distribution center in Bucheon, Gyeonggi-do.



Large trucks called arterial vehicles drop parcel boxes here, and small parcel delivery vehicles deliver them to each regional base or home.



A small parcel delivery vehicle less than 1 ton that delivers parcels to the front of the house can run for up to one month by adding urea number 1.



However, for trunk vehicles of 5 tons or more that go between logistics terminals, the number of urea must be filled every two days if it is short and once a week if it is as long as it is long.



[Lee In-gyu / trunk vehicle driver: I have to run from three to four to five tangs a day. If you go for a long distance, you have to add the elements at that time. But because I can't do that, I can't do long-distance.] Some



owners of arterial vehicles have already stopped running due to the soaring price of urea.



[Lee In-gyu / trunk vehicle driver: There are people who stopped the car. that is rather beneficial. The price of oil goes up according to the price of oil, and the number of urea is according to the number of urea.] Since a



trunk vehicle and a small delivery vehicle must work together like cogs to deliver goods properly, even if either side stops, delivery disruption is inevitable.



[Courier industry officials: (Delivery companies) are securing the supply and demand even if they pay more on their own.

Big companies seem to have a difficult time by themselves.]



Coupang and some courier companies are in the position that there will be no major problems right now as they secure the number of elements to be used by the end of the year.



Vehicle drivers directly hired by the delivery company will be paid this number of factors, but in the case of individual vehicle drivers, they will have to find a way out.



The urea crisis has cast a shadow on the entire logistics industry.
