When shipping by ocean freight, your first big choice is between full container load (FCL) and less-than-container load (LCL). This decision affects cost, speed, cargo security, and overall efficiency. Here’s a quick breakdown of the pros and cons to help you choose the best fit for your business.
Factor | LCL (Less-than-Container Load) | FCL (Full-Container Load) |
---|---|---|
Container usage | Shared with multiple shippers | Exclusive to one shipper |
Cost model | Pay by volume cubic metres (CBM) | Fixed rate per container |
Speed or transit time | Slower, involves consolidation; more susceptible to delays | Faster, fewer stops and direct routing |
Security and handling | More handling, higher risk exposure | Lower risk, sealed from origin to delivery |
Flexibility | High – good for multi-location delivery | Limited – one container, one destination; better availability in high-demand periods |
Cost considerations | Lower upfront cost; offers savings on smaller volumes but costs may scale quickly if cargo grows | Economical for big shipments but requires larger upfront investment |
Ideal for | Small to mid-sized shipments (<15 CBM); non-perishable, cost-sensitive, and/or low-risk cargo | Large, high-volume shipments (15–20 CBM+); fragile, high-value, and/or regulated goods |
By choosing us, you will enjoy a comprehensive logistics network, 24/7 customer support, and high-quality transportation services, ensuring that your goods remain unobstructed at all times.
