Full-container-load transport treats the container as the shipment unit, in contrast with shared less-than-container-load movements. The commercial distinction concerns the container booking rather than an individual carton.[1]
Compare total cost and timing with LCL rather than the price per cubic metre alone. A dedicated container can avoid some consolidation handling but leaves the merchant paying for unused space. Confirm the booking scope with the carrier or forwarder.
