FULL CONTAINER
LOAD (FCL)
The term Full Container Load (FCL) applies when a single sender uses an entire container. Thus, once loaded and sealed, the entirety of the contents therein belong to a single owner. This ensures that the merchandise will not be manipulated until at its final destination.
The carrier agrees to transport the container from point A to point B. The shipping firm’s only guide as to the container’s contents is the so-called bill of lading (B/L), which includes a declaration of the consignment and a description of the same.
This service is economically viable when the merchandise occupies 15 m3 or more (around half of a 20’ container).
FCL is recommended to maximise and protect the shipped merchandise, as well as to reduce costs. Because there is a single buyer, the shipment is delivered directly from port to the recipient.
Special equipment is available for special loads, including open top, flat rack and refrigerated containers.
LESS THAN CONTAINER
LOAD (LCL)
LCL means Less Than Container Load. This term is used when a single container carries several consignments from different exporters/importers.
This service is recommended and more economical for smaller shipments that would not fill a complete container.
Apart from a better price point, another advantage over Full Container Load (FCL) is delivery and receipt at a Container Freight Station (CFS).
