Get a quote: https://www.tgl.co/request-quote/ What is LCL? It stands for Less than Container Load. It basically means, when you don’t have enough cargo to fill a full shipping container, you purchase a space, sharing a full container with other importers in a similar situation. Think of it as ride sharing but for sea freight shipments. A common mistake made by new importers or those new to LCL shipping is falling for attractively cheap freight quotes direct from suppliers – this is where the trap is set! More often than not, the dirt-cheap freight charges are too good to be true and do not cover shipment to the new buyer’s door, only the nearest destination port. This leaves the new buyer open to a lot of unexpected fees and charges, like customs clearance, de-consolidation fees and final delivery fee to your door and all at the mercy of their supplier’s Freight Forwarder! There are a few ways to avoid being hit with unaccounted for fees: First and foremost: understand your Incoterms and if you don’t, ask your Freight Forwarder Don’t negotiate CIF terms with your supplier. Use EXW or FOB Seek out a reliable Freight Forwarder BEFORE engaging in negotiations and make sure you understand your shipping costs As an experienced Freight Forwarder, we here at TGL see many new and up-and-coming importers that have big ideas, sourced a supplier, and negotiated their rates before consulting a Freight Forwarder, only to succumb to many of the pitfalls that plague the industry.
