What are the advantages and disadvantages of FCL containers?
If your goods don’t fit in a small (shared) container, than you can reserve your own full container. This is known as an FCL (Full Container Load). All cargo space is used exclusively for you. There are many advantages to it: quick transit time, chance of damage is reduced to a minimum and it’s more cost-effective. Of course there are also downsides: it is unsuitable for Small Packages and less convenient delivery options. There are also other departure ports. See for example Rotterdam to Jaipur (INJAI) and Hamburg to Jaipur (INJAI).
- The meaning of FCL is: you have the entire container space to yourself.
- Suitable for as many small items on pallets as large goods.
- It is cheaper when the shipment uses more than 10 pallets.
- Available at: e.g. ONE, COSCO, Hapag-Lloyd, CMA CGM, MSC.
When is a LCL container a good choice?
When you have too little goods to fill a full container, then your cargo will be combined with other cargo. Transport specialists call this Less Than Container Load (LCL). The meaning of LCL is: you only pay for the space you need in a shipping container. The advantages of this option include: for smaller loads, it is way cheaper than a full container, you spend less on inventory warehousing space and it offers consistent weekly sailing schedules for sea freight. Pay attention: if your shipment takes up more than half a container, then you better go for FCL. The cost of LCL is based on the actual volume that the shipment occupies in a shared shipping container.
- The idea of LCL is that your cargo will be placed into a partial container.
- Cost effective for shipments between 2,5 m3 and 13 m3.
- You just pay for the used volume of the full container.
- Capabilities at almost all international ports.
- Available at: e.g. Yang Ming, HMM, Wan Hai, ZIM, Evergreen.
