Minimum loading quantity for FCL containers
Machine translated
I am currently importing from overseas, and after trying LCL this time, I found the process to be complicated and cumbersome, so I am planning to proceed with FCL.
However, since the product I am bringing in weighs about 1 ton, I am curious about the minimum loading quantity for an FCL container. Is it possible to import only 1 ton via FCL?

- 0✓FCL is the basic loading unit loaded onto a ship for maritime transport, a standard created to compensate for the disadvantages of bulk shipping. LCL is a concept introduced to reduce the waste of costs associated with empty space when a single container cannot be fully filled. There are no regulations regarding minimum loading quantities when performing FCL operations. However, from a cost perspective, FCL is not always cheaper than LCL, so we recommend comparing the costs before proceeding.Machine translated
