LCL - International Shipping Made Easy

Need to ship goods internationally but don’t have enough cargo to fill an entire container? LCL (Less Than Container Load) shipping is the smart, cost-effective solution. We offer reliable and efficient LCL ocean freight services to help businesses of all sizes move smaller shipments across the globe—without the high costs of full container freight.

What is LCL (Less Than Container Load)?

LCL means your cargo is consolidated with other shipments going to the same destination. You pay only for the space your goods occupy inside the container, making it an economical option for lower-volume or irregular shipments.

Ideal for Businesses That:

• Ship smaller volumes regularly
• Have inconsistent freight quantities
• Need international reach without full container commitments
• Want to minimize warehousing and move inventory as needed
• Are new to global shipping and need support navigating the process

Common LCL Cargo Types:

• Consumer goods and retail inventory
• Spare parts and machinery components
• Electronics and tech accessories
• Packaged foods (non-perishable)
• Promotional items and samples
• Industrial supplies

Our LCL Services Include:

• Global network of consolidation hubs and agents
• Weekly sailings from major ports
• Complete documentation and customs support
• Cargo pickup, packaging, and palletizing (if needed)
• Shipment tracking and delivery updates
• Customs clearance at origin and destination
• Door-to-door, port-to-port, or port-to-door options

Why Choose LCL?

• Pay only for the space used
• No need to wait to fill a container
• Faster transit than waiting for FCL volume
• Flexible shipment scheduling
• Lower upfront costs for small/medium businesses

How the LCL Process Works:

• Cargo pickup or drop-off at our consolidation warehouse
• Cargo is combined with other LCL shipments
• Container is sealed and shipped via ocean freight
• Arrival at destination port, deconsolidation
• Final delivery to your address or warehouse

We make sure your shipment is packed safely and documented correctly—so you can avoid delays, fines, or customs issues.
