Frequently asked questions
What is ocean freight shipping?
Ocean freight shipping is the process of transporting containerized cargo over the ocean via steamship lines.
What are the benefits of ocean freight shipping?
Ocean freight shipping is typically more cost-effective than other methods of cargo transportation.
Is ocean freight a sustainable mode of transport?
Ocean freight services are a more sustainable mode of transport. Ocean transport emits only a fraction of the CO2 per tonne kilometre of a truck, train, or airplane.
What is FCL shipping?
Full container load (FCL) shipping is a term used to describe goods transported in a 20′ or 40′ sealed container that is not shared with other consignees. This option is common for large-volume shipments and results in significantly less handling compared to LCL shipments.
What is LCL shipping?
Less than container load (LCL) shipping is a term used to describe multiple consignees’ goods loaded into the same container. Between the group of shippers, they make up a full container, and each shipper only pays for the space they use. This option allows businesses to take advantage of the low cost of ocean shipping without requiring high volume.
What is a buyer consolidation service?
Buyer consolidation or freight consolidation services groups a shipment from multiple suppliers at a single origin to create one larger shipment. This option allows a business to transport multiple goods with the aim of reducing costs in the overall supply chain.
