Answers to Your Questions About Less Than Container Load
What is the difference between full truckload and consolidated cargo?
The main difference between a full container load (FCL) and less than container load (LCL) is the volume of goods transported. FCL means that a container is used exclusively by a single customer, ideal for large quantities of goods. LCL allows multiple customers to share the space of a container for their smaller shipments, thus reducing costs by dividing them among all those who share the container.
