In which situations do I choose an FCL container?
If your goods don’t fit in a small (shared) container, then a full container is often worth it. The abbreviation FCL stands for Full Container Load. There is no need to share it with other shippers. There are many advantages to it: efficient transit time, less likely to damage your goods (as the container just contains your goods) and and it costs less at the bottom of the line. You have to pay attention to a few things: the transport over land is more complex (truck) and it can be a financial risk with a larger inventory. Have your cargo depart from another port?

Remark: if 50% of the container consists of your goods, then it is often more interesting to go for an FCL shipping. The cost of LCL is based on the dimensions and weight of the cargo.
