There are two kinds of ocean shipments: LCL and FCL. FCL = Full Container Load LCL = Less Container Load An LCL container has more than one company's goods in it, so it's more expensive to ship because the freight company has to do more work. Many companies won't ship things LCL--they'll wait until they've got enough orders to fill a 20-foot container, then fulfill them all at once. The company I got chainlink fence from when I worked retail was infamous for this; I would sit with no fenceposts for weeks on end because the company didn't have enough orders for them to fill a container. And come on: it's fenceposts. They're gonna sell, guys.
The term FCL in a sea shipment stands for a Full Container Load. The term LCL stands for Less Container Load.
The destination charges for an LCL cargo by sea will vary depending on the shipment. The commercial shipment charge is $125.00. Personal shipments are anywhere from $200.00 to $500.00.
Full container load, or FCL, and less than container load, or LCL, are terms used to refer to overseas shipping of cargo.
It depends from where it is being shipped. Most times LCL shipment is more expensive than FCL. That's because the shipping company has to do more work than normal.
