Full Container Load (FCL)
@Northwest Shipping And Logistics Pvt. Ltd
Northwest Shipping And Logistics Pvt. Ltd provides both Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Loads (LCL) for both deep and short sea shipping. FCL Ensures the availability of equipment whenever and wherever you need to ship a complete container of cargo.
FCL container shipment tends to have lower freight rates than an equivalent weight of cargo in bulk. It is intended to designate a container loaded to its allowable maximum weight or volume, but FCL in practice on ocean freight does not always mean a full payload or capacity – many companies will prefer to keep a ‘mostly’ full container as a single container load to simplify logistics and increase security compared to sharing a container with other goods.
Route Options:

Port to Port
2

FCL – an abbreviation for “Full Container Load”
A full container-load shipment is when a shipper contracts for the transportation of an entire container
How FCL Shipping Can Benefit Your Company
There are several advantages to shipping qualifying cargo under FCL methods:
Shipping a FCL
When shipping a FCL load, you get complete control over your cargo.
Ability to Pick
You have the ability to pick up and drop off your cargo directly from the warehouse where the containers are loaded and unloaded. As such, you're not relying on a middle man to ensure your cargo finds its way to its final destination.
Time in Transit
The actual time in transit of your cargo can be faster compared to an LCL.
FCL Ensures
Moreover, FCL ensures a proper chain of delivery from end-to-end and is best suited for enterprises transporting expensive merchandise, equipment's or goods which are required for retail and supply chain.
