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

Why Go FCL?

Cost-effectiveness is the key. LCL tends to cost more per cubic meter (CBM) than FCL. So, when your shipment reaches a certain volume threshold, selecting a full container could be the wiser choice. By paying slightly more, you unlock the advantages of FCL, such as faster transit times and reduced risks of damage during transportation.

However, there's a caveat to consider. Even though you might save money by shipping FCL, you could end up facing extra demurrage and detention charges due to potential delays in securing warehouse appointments.

Finding the Tipping Point.

The decision on when to switch from LCL to FCL depends on the dimensions of your shipment. Generally speaking, once your volume hits around 10 CBM, it's a good time to consider the transition to FCL. It's a strategic move that balances cost-efficiency with timely delivery, ensuring your cargo reaches its destination smoothly.
