LCL or FCL: The Smart Choice
When it comes to shipping, choosing between Less than Container Load (LCL) and Full Container Load (FCL) can be a strategic decision that impacts both your budget and delivery efficiency. LCL is ideal for smaller loads, but sometimes, opting for an entire container, even if you don't have enough to fill it, can be a smart move
