Sea Services Provided By Shipping Agents

海洋货运 is the shipment of large quantities of goods internationally by cargo ships. The goods are packed into LCL or FCL containers before sailing to their destination. It is the most popular shipping option, with 90% of goods transported internationally by sea.

Here are some of the different types of cargo that are usually transported by sea:

  • Liquid bulk cargo made up of liquids e.g., Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG), Liquified
  • Natural Gas (LNG), vegetable oils, milk, wine and glycerin
  • Dry bulk cargo includes goods e.g., sand, sugar, coal, grain and iron core
  • Break bulk e.g., art, furniture and vehicle parts
  • Rolling stocks e.g., heavy machinery and vehicles
  • Dangerous goods e.g., bleach, car batteries, paints

优点

  • More economical, especially with larger volumes
  • Able to transport heavy and bulky items
  • More eco-friendly
  • Better security as containers are locked

缺点

  • Slower speed
  • Higher risks associated with weather causing loss or damage to goods
  • Less flexible routes and timing

小于集装箱装载量(LCL)

LCL stands for Less than Container Load, where you will have to share a container with other importers and exporters. You will only pay for the space that your cargo will be using.

A general guideline is that if your shipments are not big and under 13 – 15 cubic metres (CBM), LCL can be a better option.

整箱装载(FCL)

FCL refers to a Full Container Load, a container that is for the use of only one shipment. FCL is faster than LCL and is suitable for shippers who have quantities of goods larger than 13 – 15 CBM.

In this case, you will not have to share the container with another shipper’s cargo and risk damages. If your shipment is urgent and you would like enhanced security , then FCL will be the better shipping option.

Common Types of Shipping Containers

There are 5 different types of shipping containers that are used for shipping different types of cargo.

通用集装箱

General purpose containers (also known as dry freight containers) are the most common type of cargo container. They transport most items, except liquids, gas, temperature-sensitive, perishable or hazardous cargo.

These containers do not have temperature controls, are fully enclosed and protected with strong steel against weather and sea water.

Here are the different variants that we have at M&P:

FAQs About Shipping Agents

What does a shipping agent do?

A shipping agent organises shipping of cargo goods for domestic and international trade. The agent acts as an intermediary between you, your cargo and the final destination.

As a freight forwarding company, M&P also coordinates transportation, logistics details with sea freight companies and will notify you of cargo shipments’ delivery statuses. Additionally, we ensure custom clearance and prepare the required documents for import and export.

What are the details required when booking a shipping agent?

If you are thinking of booking a shipping agent, provide these details to us via 电子邮件 and we will get back to you within the next 3 hours:

  • Your contact details (name, contact number and email address)

Sea shipping costs will vary depending on factors such as the distance travelled, fuel costs, exchange rates, cargo shipment sizes and the transit time required.

A 20-feet FCL will cost roughly $300 and $10,000 per container to ship to Malaysia and Scotland respectively. Whereas LCL shipments are priced per volume of goods. For a gauge, a China to US shipment will cost about $2 to $4 per kg.

Other charges may include insurance fees, custom security surcharge, routing charges and fuel surcharge.

What items can and cannot be shipped?

Every country has different shipping guidelines, and certain items cannot be imported or exported due to regulatory reasons.
