LCL Shipping

LCL, or Less than Container Load, represents a cost-effective option for ocean cargo shipping when your cargo doesn’t fill a full 20ft or 40ft shipping container. It involves grouping your goods with other shipments, making it an ideal solution for smaller cargo volumes.

Advantages of LCL Ocean Freight:

  • Cost-Effective – With LCL, you pay only for the space you need, making it more economical than full-container options.
  • Inventory Efficiency – Shipping smaller quantities more frequently reduces warehousing costs.
  • Affordability – LCL is a more budget-friendly option compared to air freight, especially when time is not a critical factor.
  • Flexibility – During peak sea shipping seasons or high-volume periods, LCL offers more availability and speed compared to FCL (Full Container Load) options.

FCL Shipping

FCL, or Full Container Load, is suited for shipments large enough to fill a 20’ or 40’ shipping container. It’s an optimal choice for substantial cargo volumes in ocean freight.

Advantages of FCL Ocean Freight:

  • Efficiency – FCL shipments are loaded and unloaded independently, saving transit time.
  • Security – Sealing containers at the source minimizes handling and potential damage.
  • Cost-Effective – For larger shipments, FCL’s flat fee is more economical compared to the per-unit cost of LCL.
  • Time-Saving – While air freight is faster, FCL offers significant cost savings for less time-sensitive shipments.

What are the Shipping Costs for FCL?

FCL shipping involves a flat fee for the entire container. This becomes cost-effective for larger shipments, typically around 13 CBM or more, as the per-unit cost in LCL is higher. For an accurate quote contact us with your information.
