LCL Consolidation
Ocean LCL (Less than Container Load) shipping provides specialized logistics solutions for small-to-medium international cargo needs. By scientifically consolidating fragmented shipments from multiple shippers, this service optimizes container space utilization, offering cost-effective cross-border transportation for cargo volumes below full container load (typically <15 CBM or 3 tons). This SOP-compliant solution integrates modern logistics technologies to deliver comprehensive LCL services.
