FAQs

Often referred to as ocean freight, sea freight services refer to the transportation of cargo by sea, utilising ships to move goods from one port to another across different countries and continents. It is a cost-effective and reliable method of shipping various types of cargo, from small packages to large items.
-
There are two main types of sea freight services:
Full Container Load (FCL): FCL involves shipping goods that occupy an entire shipping container. It is ideal for large shipments or when you want exclusive use of the container to ensure the security and integrity of your cargo.
Less than Container Load (LCL): LCL is suitable for smaller shipments that do not fill a whole container or require additional security. With LCL, multiple shipments from different customers are consolidated into one container, making it a cost-effective option for smaller quantities of cargo.
-
Full Container Load (FCL) is a sea freight service where a shipper makes use of an entire shipping container for their cargo, meaning the container is exclusively used for one customer’s goods and no other cargo is loaded inside. FCL is often chosen for its faster transit times, reduced handling, and enhanced security.
-
Less than Container Load (LCL) is a sea freight service where smaller shipments from multiple customers are consolidated into a single container. Since each customer’s cargo shares the container space, LCL is a cost-effective option for those with smaller quantities of goods to ship.
-
The cost of sea freight shipping depends on a variety of factors, including the volume and weight of the cargo, the origin and destination of the shipment, the type of service (FCL or LCL), and any additional services required (e.g. customs clearance). To obtain an accurate quote, it’s best to contact our team regarding the specific details of your shipment.
-
Booking: Customers book their shipment(s) with the freight forwarding company, providing details of the cargo, origin, and destination.
Consolidation (for LCL): In the case of LCL shipments, cargo from multiple customers is grouped together to fill a container.
Container Loading: The cargo is securely loaded into the container, and for FCL, the entire container is dedicated to one customer’s shipment.
Transportation: The loaded container is transported via sea to the destination port.
Customs Clearance: customs clearance procedures.
Delivery: The cargo is then transported from the destination port to the final delivery location.
-
