Why FCL is More Beneficial than LCL?

Send Parcel to Pakistan and Azad Kashmir


If you are a corporate individual then you must have had one of these as the most suitable shipping medium at time. One can never head on with FCL (Full container load) if his commodities don’t even occupy half of the container. At that time, LCL (Less Container Load) is the only option people are left with. Most of the time, for the beneficiary and convenience purposes, FCL is highly preferred option especially for the massive import/export. Worthy agencies like Pak Cargo that are always shipping huge consignments to Birmingham, Asia and other regions, they are pretty much clear to which manner of transportation is suitable for the particular quantity.

Benefits of FCL:
Since both the shipping manners have their own significance at different points, we will be focusing on why you should prefer FCL (Full Container Load) over LCL (Less Container Load);
1.      FCL offers you more than enough benefits from which one is the direct track option. All you have to do is just visit the carrier’s website and you will be providing booking number and container number. Any one of them will also be reasonable and you will get the exact location of your container.
2.      In the FCL manner of transportation, the cargo is safer and the one of LCL. In the LCL, you (being a shipper) will have to deliver the cargo to warehouse which is the obvious part. Since the shipper is heading on with the less container load, the forwarder will have to pack stuff in other shipper’s consignment also in order to make it complete and eligible for shipping. In all that process your consignment might have to bear some loss or damage while being exposed. Furthermore, consolidation phase might also lead to your cargo compromises.
3.      Did you know that FCL does not get you stuck with the longer processes? Since the FCL belongs to one shipper only that does not require any messy procedure while loading or unloading.
4.      If you Send Parcel to Pakistan and Azad Kashmir through FCL, you will not have to bear a lot of amount because FCL is for sure comparatively cheaper than LCL. It’s more like economies of scale, when you buy something in bulk quantity, you are charged comparatively lesser in average. In fact, shippers happen to pay 2-3 times more price for particular volume of space when they ship through LCL.

It is really necessary for a corporate individual to go for the FCL if he has enough quantity to get his container filled. Furthermore, one can get benefited through all these advantages also.
