Shipping Modes To Choose From
When you are choosing to ship items, it’s important to determine the volume of the cargo before paying for the shipping. In international freights, there are two ways to ship your cargo: FCL or LCL.
FCL (Full Container Load)
This shipment mode is best used when shipping a large amount of cargo. And by large, they mean enough to fill an entire cargo container. When you choose to get FCL as your mode of shipment, you will be paying for the entire container so it is best to make full use of it.
LCL (less than Container Load)
If your shipment is not enough to fill an entire cargo container, you could choose to share the container with other customers. With FCL, you will be paying for the entire load inside the container, while with LCL, you will only be paying for the space your cargo occupies. And this is measured by cubic meter, making this a cheaper option.
How Long Does It Take For Cargo To Arrive In Singapore?
China is one of the world’s biggest importers, but just how long will it take for your cargo to arrive from China to Singapore? It will all depend on how the cargo will be transported. If it will be by air freight, it shouldn’t take more than a day for it to make a landing in Singapore. If it’s by ocean freight, it may take a little longer.
Customs checks are mandatory for all cargo arriving at port, so that may take another few days before it is cleared and ready to go to the company who ordered the cargo.
