LCL (Less than Container Load) refers to export or import occupying a smaller share of a full container on a ship. LCL Grouping of an individual cargo is done along with several other shipping goods in a single container. Although LCL cargo consolidation per unit price costs more than FCL (Full Container Load), based on the number of pallets, the nature of the goods, the adjoining destination and the urgency, opting for LCL can be quite cost-effective. The experts at MSA have years of hands-on experience in assigning cargo for shipment offering the most affordable price per-load.

Speed, Cost and Reliability are factors that affect many decisions when it comes to freight finalizing. While regular clients are required to choose between Ocean Freight and Air Freight for their cargo transportation, we at MSA are ready to offer a combination of both that promises the advantages of both methods along with its considerably lesser prices. Those who use standard shipping containers of 20 and 40 FEU for exports and imports, may find Sea-Air freight complicating, however in terms of savings budgets and assuring timely delivery, these methods would surely be the key to consistent transportation.
