FCL and LCL Ocean Freight Shipments

When it comes to ocean freight shipping, choosing the right container shipment option is crucial. As an ocean freight company, SBB Shipping offers both FCL (Full Container Load) and LCL (Less Than Container Load) options to meet the specific needs of our clients.

In this article, we will briefly explain what FCL and LCL container shipments are and the benefits of each, so you can make an informed decision when choosing your ocean freight shipping option.

FCL Container Shipments

FCL is a container shipping option where the entire container is reserved for one customer’s cargo. This means that the container is not shared with any other customers, which offers several benefits.

• FCL shipping allows for efficient loading and unloading of cargo, as there is no need to sort and separate different shipments.
• FCL offers increased security for your cargo, making it less likely to be damaged or lost during transit.
• Additionally, FCL shipments provide flexibility and versatility in terms of shipment timelines and delivery dates.

At SBB Shipping, we offer an extensive range of FCL shipping services that are secure, economical, and dependable. We deliver tailor-made solutions for your cargo by utilizing our diverse equipment fleet. Our association with renowned ocean carriers gives us access to a wide selection of carriers to choose from, allowing us to select the best option for your FCL freight forwarding requirements.

LCL Container Shipments

LCL is a container shipping option where multiple customers’ cargo is consolidated into one container. This option is ideal for smaller shipments that do not require an entire container. LCL shipments offer several benefits.

• LCL freight costs are based on cargo volume, making it an affordable option for smaller shipments.
• Frequent shipments of smaller quantities can save on storage expenses and free up space in your warehouse.
