FAQs
-
1. What is LCL shipping?
LCL stands for Less than Container Load. It means your cargo volume is smaller than what is required to fill an entire 20ft or 40ft container, so your goods are consolidated with other shippers’ cargo in a shared container. This is ideal if you don’t have enough cargo to fill a container by yourself, saving you cost by paying only for the space you need.
-
2. Is LCL cheaper than FCL (Full Container Load)?
LCL is typically cheaper if you don’t have enough goods to fill a container, as you pay only for the volume you use. However, cost per cubic meter can be higher because of additional handling and consolidation fees. If you have enough volume to fill a container, FCL might be more economical.
-
3. How do I book LCL shipping with your company?
You can easily book online or through any of our communication channels by providing shipment details to get instant pricing and confirm your booking. We can arrange for pickup of your goods or you may drop them off at our warehouse. We manage the entire process from consolidation to delivery.
-
4. Can I track my LCL shipment?
Yes, we provide tracking for your shipment from pickup to delivery. Once your cargo is consolidated and on the move, you can check its status online or contact us for updates. We prioritize transparency to keep you informed throughout the process.
-
5. What is the minimum shipment size for LCL?
There is no strict minimum size, but very small shipments may be subject to a minimum volume charge to cover handling and administrative costs. This minimum varies by route and service.
-
6. Can I combine multiple suppliers' goods into one LCL shipment?
Yes, consolidating goods from multiple suppliers into one LCL shipment can be cost-effective. Just ensure all goods have proper documentation and are delivered to our consolidation point in time for shipping.
