DG LCL to Malaysia: what the numbers mean

LCL bills on the greater of actual volume and the 2 CBM minimum, so a 1 CBM shipment still bills as 2 CBM. Port Klang runs direct at USD125/CBM in 8 days. Penang and Pasir Gudang cost USD165/CBM with a relay through Port Klang (PKT) in 11 days, and the same two ports at PSA3 grade move through Singapore at USD225/CBM in 18–20 days.

Ocean freight is only part of the invoice. Add the RMB local charge package, VGM per bill of lading, the Class 2 destination surcharge, and the PSA3 transshipment handling charge of USD200 per bill where the cargo is graded PSA3.

How to read this sheet: “Direct” means the carrier's own vessel call, “Transship” means a relay through the port shown. Rows marked PSA3 are the same port booked at PSA3 grade, quoted as a separate rate line. CISF is marked N at every Malaysian port. The RMB local charges in the next section are quoted in RMB and sit outside the ocean rate.

Rates are the November 2026 Shanghai export DG LCL rates (ETD November 1–14, 2026) plus a USD30/CBM uplift. Guangzhou-origin DG LCL on the same lane is quoted shipment by shipment.
