FCL cargo refers to the cargo that can be filled with a large shipment. In sea container transportation, the most common full container load volumes are 20GP, 40GP and 40HQ. A 20GP can hold 30 cubic meters of goods, a 40GP can hold 65 cubic meters of goods, and a 40HQ can hold 75 cubic meters of goods.

Comparing with LCL and FCL transport, the LCL company is responsible for the packing and unpacking of the LCL. While the FCL sea freight is different. Known as full container load shipping, the FCLs container load shipping is usually packed and sealed by the shipper, and the consignee is responsible for unpacking and unloading. However, the consignor can also just send the goods to the container yard, and entrust a freight forwarder or a professional packing company for packing.

For small loads (about 13 cubic meters or less), the whole cost may be higher.
2.Sealing the container in the factory means less handling and less chance of damage, but delivering a complete FCLs container means that you need equipment and personnel that can handle this work, which is not available in every factory.

However, when transporting the FCL, the FCL freight delivery time will become more complicated because you will Large quantities of goods need to be processed within a smaller time frame.
