When to choose LCL shipping?
CONTAINER SHIPPING RATES & COST: Container vessels are capable of handling huge amounts of weight. Cargo volume in cubic meters is primarily used to calculate the costs of a LCL shipment. However there is a maximum weight allowed per every cubic meter being shipped. If the cargo exceeds the maximum weight allowed per cubic meter, then the rate applicable is based on the weight.
SHIPPING VOLUME: The more space your shipment will occupy in an ocean container, the more you will pay. Therefore, reducing the volume of your LCL shipment will help you minimize shipping costs. If your cargo is heavy and it does not have too much volume, then LCL shipping may be the right solution for you.
CARGO SAFETY RISKS: LCL freight requires more handling of your cargo which can increase the chances of damage or loss during transport. Therefore, adequate shipping packaging and additional cargo insurance is always recommendable.
