LCL

LCL stands for Less than Container Load, which means a shipment that doesn't fill an entire shipping container. Instead, your goods share space with other shipments on the same container. This is cost-effective for smaller quantities, allowing multiple businesses to consolidate their cargo and reduce expenses. LCL shipments are common in international shipping when a full container isn't needed, providing flexibility and lower costs. The logistics involve careful coordination to ensure goods are grouped, packed, and transported efficiently, arriving together at the destination.
