Frequently Asked Questions about Sea Freight
Sea freight transit times vary significantly based on the origin, destination, and vessel schedule. For instance, shipping time from China to Australia by sea typically ranges from 15 to 30 days, while longer routes like sea freight UK to Australia can take 35-50 days. We provide estimated transit times for your specific route and keep you updated on your sea freight shipment's progress.
FCL (Full Container Load) means you lease an entire container for your goods, offering faster transit times and less handling. LCL (Less than Container Load) means your goods share container space with other shipments, making it a more affordable sea cargo service for smaller volumes, though transit times might be slightly longer due to consolidation. We'll help you determine the best option for your cargo.
Sea freight costs are calculated based on several factors, including the volume (CBM) or weight of your cargo, whether it's FCL or LCL, the origin and destination ports, applicable surcharges (e.g., fuel, port congestion), and any additional services like documentation or customs clearance. We provide transparent, itemized quotes to ensure you understand your total sea freight cost upfront.
