Shipping Aviation is the best option for bulk goods transportation, sometimes it’s the only option. When importing from China, you can choose FCL, or LCL if your overall cargo volume does not meet one full container requirements. Sounds easy enough. But in our years forwarding practical experiences, we have heard many sad stories about how importers are shocked by the invoice they had to pay at the LCL destination. Since there are LCL destination fees, more than you prepaid in most cases.
LCL enables importers to ship smaller amounts of cargo that’s not of a large enough volume to make FCL a viable option. This means your cargo is combined with other shipping consignments headed for the same destination. Unlike FCL, which usually has a flat rate per container, LCL is charged based on the volume, set in cubic meters. LCL shipping is a cost-effective solution for smaller shipments as you only need to pay for the volume space used.
Shipping Aviation offers worldwide less-than-container load service to meet customers’ requirement when they don’t have enough cargo for a Full Container Load (FCL). We packed your cargo separately and group several such packages together in accordance to their destination after ensuring compatibility with other cargo. The cargo is then transshipped to its final destination. Shipping Aviation is able to deliver and receive cargo to and from across the world.
Our consolidation service offers the advantages of competitive freight rates, competitive insurance premiums, reduced risk of pilferage and reduced packing costs. We make all arrangements for combining of goods at origin, and separation of cargo at destination.

Container shipping is typically the most cost-effective and efficient method of ocean freight forwarding, but what if the goods you need to ship don’t fit in a standard shipping container? In this case, you may need to move your cargo using break bulk shipping.
Break bulk transportation involves moving large cargo in smaller units, such as pallets, barrels, drums, boxes, or bags. It was the most common method of ocean freight transportation before the rise of large container ships. While typically more labor intensive than full container load (FCL) and less than container load (LCL) shipping, it is often still the best shipping choice when products are too large, heavy, or awkwardly shaped to fit in a standard container, or if the products need to be transported to a minimally-developed port that can’t accommodate container ships. If you have break bulk cargo, let Global Shipping Services facilitate the move from beginning to end. With our years of experience and extensive professional network in the project cargo forwarding industry, we know how to transport your shipment safely and at the lowest possible cost to you.
