A Full Container Load (FCL) is a standard (20 or 40 ft length) container, depending on location of origin Country. The FCL means the loading reaches its allowable maximum weight or full measurement. In practice, the FCL in the ocean freight does not always mean packing a container to its full payload or full capacity. Сontainer loading is a quite difficult procedure, and during the loading it is necessary to pay attention in order to avoid cargo damage
Less than container load (LCL) is a shipment that is not large enough to fill a standard cargo container
