Another factor that affects the cost of shipping containerised cargo is whether or not you have a full container load to transport.

Full container load (FCL)

Much of the attraction of NVOCC carriage is that it offers discounted rates, especially for less than a full container load of cargo.

A full container load (FCL) is an ISO standard container that is loaded and unloaded under the risk and account of one shipper and only one consignee.

Global offerings include full container load (FCL) and less-than-container load (LCL) service to the Caribbean, Europe, the Far East, Central America and South America.

Besides the normal FCL ("Full Container Load") movements, JP Logistics also handles LCL ("less than container load") movements to various overseas destinations.
