Ocean freight: FCL, LCL and special containers
Carrier resources and overseas partners support a range of full-container, less-than-container and special-container arrangements for different cargo requirements.
How do FCL, LCL and special-container shipments work?
SHUNE arranges full-container-load (FCL), less-than-container-load (LCL) and special-container shipments. Planning takes the goods, volume, weight, packaging and destination port into account, with carriers and overseas partners coordinating booking, export clearance, loading, destination clearance and delivery.
What information do you need for a quote?
Please provide the origin, destination, goods description, quantity, gross weight, volume, packaging, cargo-ready date and delivery requirements. Large equipment or unusually sized cargo also requires dimensions, weight and details of loading and unloading conditions.
How do we agree the service scope and shipping arrangements?
The quotation and arrangements depend on the specific cargo and the solution agreed by both parties. Confirm whether export clearance, storage and stuffing, insurance, destination clearance and final delivery are required; an unconfirmed stage should not be assumed to be included.
