FCL or LCL — which to choose
FCL (Full Container Load) gives you a whole container: 20 or 40 ft, standard, high cube or reefer. It pays off once your cargo exceeds roughly 13–15 m³. With LCL (Less than Container Load) your cargo is consolidated with others and you pay only for the cubic metres you use.

Frequently asked questions
How long does sea freight from China to Latvia take?
Usually 30–45 days port to port depending on routing and transhipment, plus customs and final delivery.
When is FCL better than LCL?
Usually once cargo exceeds 13–15 m³, or when you need faster, safer delivery without handling in a consolidation warehouse.
Do you handle customs at the port?
Yes. We prepare import and export declarations and coordinate container release at the port.
