Frequently Asked Questions

FCL (Full Container Load) means you rent an entire container exclusively for your cargo, regardless of whether you fill it completely. This option offers greater security, faster transit times, and is ideal for larger shipments or high-value goods.

LCL (Less Container Load) means your cargo shares container space with other shippers’ goods. This is more economical for smaller shipments but may involve longer transit times due to consolidation and deconsolidation processes.

Transit times vary by destination:

  • • United States: 3-12 days (depending on port)
  • • Asia: 15-28 days
  • • Europe: 14-21 days
  • • South America: 6-18 days

These times include port-to-port transit and may vary based on weather conditions, port congestion, and customs procedures.

Essential documents include:

  • • Commercial Invoice: Details of goods and transaction
  • • Packing List: Detailed contents of each package
  • • Bill of Lading (B/L): Transport contract and receipt
  • • Certificate of Origin: Proves goods’ origin country
  • • Export Declaration: Required by Mexican customs
  • • Insurance Certificate: If cargo insurance is purchased
  • • Special Permits: For regulated goods (food, chemicals, etc.)

We help prepare and verify all required documentation to ensure smooth customs clearance.

Shipping costs depend on several factors:

  • • Destination: Distance and route complexity
  • • Container type: 20′, 40′, 40’HC, or refrigerated
  • • Service type: FCL vs. LCL

  • • Affordable rates: Typically 0.1-0.3% of cargo value
