What is a Less-Than-Container Load (LCL)?
A term that means that freight is loaded in a container with other freight that may be owned by multiple, different parties with different Bills of Lading.
This method is cheaper than full-container-load (FCL) shipping and can be used when goods being transported are not large enough to fill a standard cargo container. Shipments are combined to save space.
