So what is the difference between FBA Shanghai shipping bulk cargo and FCL shipping?

The bulk cargo in the fba Haipai is generally shipped as general cargo. If the seller sends less than one box of goods, then it needs to be transported in LCL with other sellers or other goods (such as books, clothing, daily necessities, etc.). It is worth noting that FBA seaborne bulk cargo and bulk cargo in LCL are two different concepts, which cannot be confused with bulk cargo and bulk cargo in Shanghai LCL.

In fact, the bulk cargo in the general LCL is some cargo that cannot be filled with an entire container box alone. And a small amount of goods in this batch will be integrated with the goods of other sellers into the box. After the different goods are combined into a container box, the packing operation will be carried out together, and then the freighter will be arranged to send the goods to the destination. .

Therefore, LCL is to classify and pack according to the nature of the goods and the country of destination. The goods destined for the same destination are assembled into a whole container and shipped together.

The whole container transportation, as the name suggests, means that one seller fills the entire container box, and then the freight forwarder sends the goods to the destination country. The goods in the container box are all from the same seller, and there are no multiple shippers or multiple types of goods.

What is the difference between the cost structure of fba Shanghai shipping bulk cargo and FCL shipping?

Under normal circumstances, LCL shipments only include three main costs: sea freight, local charge and storage costs.

The local charge fee here refers to the fee paid by the consignee to the freight forwarder after the goods arrive in the destination country, and the charging standards of each port are different, and the charges of each freight forwarder are also different, so the seller is in the Be sure to fully understand the composition of the fee before shipping.

The cost of shipping the whole container is relatively high: sea freight, port miscellaneous fees, warehousing fees and internal loading fees, while some goods require additional direct loading fees and reinforcement fees.

In contrast, the cost of FCL delivery is much more expensive than LCL, but relatively speaking, the delivery speed and service measurement will be much better.
