FCL or LCL sea freight from China to Jordan
You are able to select your preferred option when you make a booking for sea freight.
Container Type | Capacity (Standard Pallets) | When to Use |
20-foot (FCL) | 10 | Your cargo fills ≥6 pallets, or you prefer a dedicated container. |
40-foot (FCL) | 22 | You have large volume—up to 22 pallets. |
Less-than-Container Load (LCL) | Pay per cubic meter | You ship fewer than 6 pallets and don’t mind sharing space. |
- If you need to ship 6 pallets or more or if you want exclusive use of a container, FCL is the fastest, easiest and safest option.
- Using the LCL method (Groupage) is economical for small goods; you only need to pay for the space your product uses. Shipments are gathered with others which sometimes leads to a bit longer transit time.
