Sea freight

When you book a Full Container Load (FCL), you book an entire container for your goods by yourself, regardless of the volume. It is an advantageous alternative if you are to transport large quantities that fill an entire container. One of the main advantages of transporting goods in a full container is that the container is closed and sealed at the supplier and is not opened until the recipient has received the delivery.

There is an option to load goods with others in cases where you do not have enough goods to fill a container on your own. This is called Less Container Load (LCL) and means that you book the number of cubic meters required for the actual weight of the bulky weight of your goods. However, an LCL solution requires a little more handling. The goods must be loaded together in a container and then unloaded when they arrive at the destination. The lead time is usually a few days longer for an LCL shipment compared to an FCL shipment.
