What is LCL Shipping?

Is your shipment too small to fill an entire container? LCL shipping lets you share a container with other cargo, ensuring your small shipment can move when you need it.

​

Less-than-Container Load (LCL) allows you to use palletized boxes, crates, or small packages to ensure timely shipment of your cargo. This method helps you manage fluctuating demand and secure shipping space even during busy periods.

When to use LCL ?

By opting for LCL, you only pay for the space your cargo occupies in the container, sharing both the space and the costs with others.

​

It is more cost-effective than air freight and allows you to ship smaller quantities more frequently, reducing expenses on inventory and warehousing.

How does LCL shipping work?

Less-than-Container Load (LCL) shipping consolidates smaller shipments from multiple shippers into one shared container, allowing you to share space and costs.
