Asset Based Carrier

Full Container Load (FCL) shipping, you pay for the whole container, and there will only be one shipper. This means there is also little handling since your FCL shipment does not need to be de-consolidated at the end of the journey and will be sealed right after loading.

Less Than Container Load shipping (LCL), lets you share a container with other shippers and thus consolidate a container that wouldn’t be full otherwise. Shipping boxes and pallets allows for a more flexible delivery based on your actual needs, as even the smallest cargo can have a big impact on your business.

Lower Price Per Unit (For small loads (approximately 13 CBM or more), Faster than traditional LCL, Less potential for damage.

Less-than-Container Load enables the use of palletized boxes and crates or small package boxes to ensure on-time shipment of your cargo. It helps you accommodate fluctuating demand and find shipping availability even during peak seasons.
