DG LCL to Honduras: what the numbers mean
LCL bills on the greater of actual volume and the minimum, so a 1.5 CBM shipment still bills as 2 CBM on both Honduran services. Puerto Cortes and San Pedro Sula both sail Saturday and both relay through COLON in 51 days at USD390/CBM, so the only number that differs between the two rows is the transshipment fee. Read the fee columns before you quote a customer.
Ocean freight is only part of the invoice. Add the RMB local charge package, VGM at USD15/BL, the transshipment fee — USD550/BILL on Puerto Cortes, USD450/BILL on San Pedro Sula — CISF at 50 W/M on both rows, the 10% collection fee when freight is paid at destination, and a pallet-count customs declaration for all South America cargo.
