FCL stands for Full Container Load. It is an ocean shipping mode where an entire container is dedicated to one single shipment, providing better security, faster transit times, and lower risk of damage compared to shared LCL shipments.
How does Door-to-Door DDP shipping work?
DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) means the shipper handles the entire transportation process from the warehouse in China directly to the destination address in the USA or Australia. This includes ocean transit, export clearance, import customs clearance, duties, taxes, and final local trucking delivery.
Which container sizes are available for FCL shipping?
We offer standard container options including 20GP (20ft General Purpose), 40GP (40ft General Purpose), and 40HQ (40ft High Cube) containers, suitable for various volumes and weights of cargo.
What is the average transit time from China to the USA and Australia?
Transit times vary depending on the destination port. Shipping to the US West Coast typically takes 15-20 days, while the US East Coast takes 28-35 days. Shipping to major ports in Australia generally takes 12-22 days.
Is local trucking included in the destination country?
Yes, under Door-to-Door (DDP/DAP) terms, we coordinate professional local trucking services at the destination to deliver the container or cargo directly to your specified warehouse or business address.
