LCL Shipping tips
- LCL rates work out to be more cost effective as your volume increase. Contrary to what one may expect, you would not pay twice or four times more if you LCL volume increases by two times or four times. See the below line chart showing shipping cost in Dollars as your volume increases from 35 Cubic Feet onwards all the way until 1000 Cubic Feet.
- If you also have FCL rates from us, you will also see from the above line chart that LCL makes economical sense as long as your volume is less than 600 Cubic Foot. If you have more than 600 Cubic Foot to ship then you are better off taking a sole use 20’ container.
