FCL & LCL sea freight estimates

Check reference ocean freight rates

For budgeting only, not a bookable quote. Costs cover only the scope listed. Contact support to confirm final freight, surcharges, space and transit time.

What is less than container load (LCL), and when should I choose FCL?

With LCL, your cargo shares a container with other shipments. With full container load (FCL), you book the whole container, even if you do not fill it.

Select the origin and destination ports. For LCL, enter the packed volume in cubic metres and the gross weight in kilograms. For FCL, select the container size and quantity. Compare the estimate, then confirm port charges, local delivery and the sailing date before booking.

What does a reference rate include?

Each result lists its scope, reference date and validity. Unless explicitly included, collection, loading and unloading, customs clearance, documents, origin and destination port charges, duties, insurance and local delivery require separate confirmation. Special cargo, excess weight or dimensions, and peak-season surcharges may also apply.

How do I get a final quote?

After your inquiry, our team checks the cargo, route, sailing schedule and destination charges before providing a formal quote. Ocean freight reference rates are not shown in the shipping-method selector for actual shipments.

How estimates are calculated

Our estimates use the region, reference routes and feeder / transshipment factors for budgeting only. They do not confirm a direct sailing, available space or a sailing schedule. Contact support for a final quote.
