FCL and LCL are two common terms used in shipping under import and export business trade. We have introduced LCL shipment in the last article. In this time, we are going to take about FCL shipping.

A full container load (FCL) is an ISO standard container that is loaded and unloaded under the risk and account of one shipper and only one consignee. In practice, it means that the whole container is intended for one consignee. FCL is intended to designate a container loaded to its allowable maximum weight or volume, but FCL in practice on ocean freight refers to a single container booked by a shipper to transport their cargo to simplify logistics and increase security compared to sharing a container with other goods.
