Advantages and disadvantages of LCL shipping
Advantages:
·Cost saving: The goods of multiple shippers share one container, and
each shipper only
needs to pay the freight for the container space occupied by its own goods, which
reduces the transportation cost of a single shipper.
·High flexibility: It provides higher flexibility. Shippers can
flexibly arrange the
transportation of goods according to their needs, and do not need to wait for the whole
container to be filled before shipping.
Disadvantages:
·Cargo safety risk: The goods of multiple shippers are packed in one
container, and the
safety of the goods may be affected. The risk of damage to the goods is relatively high,
so the shipper needs to strengthen the packaging and protection of the goods.
·Customs clearance and operation complexity: The customs clearance and
operation process
of LCL goods is relatively complicated, and it is necessary to process the documents and
procedures of multiple shippers. This may increase the operation cost and time cost of
the shipper.
