A direct and
dedicated service for every need
Evaluating the logistical need and the quantity of goods available is fundamental for us at Wit Logistics to determine the best shipping method for each customer.
Here we propose a transport solution in which the entire container is reserved for a single sender when the customer needs a safe, fast and reliable shipment. FCL shipping is safer because the container is loaded with the goods of a single recipient, at the supplier’s warehouse, where it is closed with a seal that is opened by the importer once the container reaches its final destination (except for customs inspections at the end of which another seal is applied).
As for costs, shipping full load means incurring a lower freight cost per cubic meter compared to the LCL solution.
Why choose FCL shipping?
It is important to evaluate how much of the container you end up occupying, but when the load exceeds 50-70%, FCL shipping is the most advantageous.
In the case of fragile goods, it is clear that the Full Container Load solution provides more guarantees, there is nothing else in the container and this allows the organization of the space according to the content; it is not possible to have this certainty in groupage transport.
Exploiting the advantages of FCL can optimize the supply chain and improve the overall efficiency of commercial operations.
