Our containers

We accept for transportation – cargo of container standards such as FCL and LCL, of the following sizes:

  • 20-foot container – up to 28 tons cargo
  • 40-foot container – up to 30-32 tons
  • 20-foot High Cube container – up to 28-29 tons
  • 40-foot High Cube container – from 30 to 32 tons

FCL container

FCL container – full container loading with cargo from one supplier to one recipient client.

FCL container

For which BUSINESS are containers best suited FCL

  • for large companies, with large volumes of goods
  • for clients who ship large volumes of goods
  • for companies who ship large or sensitive goods
  • for clients who need to control the process and avoid contact of their cargo with goods from other senders

ADVANTAGES OF FCL CONTAINERS

  • Fast transit time
    The container does not need to be filled with cargo from different senders, which reduces loading and unloading time;
  • Fast customs clearance
    The customs documents for one container take less time
  • Control over process
    The shipper has the opportunity to monitor his container, without worrying that his cargo will be mixed with others
  • Lower percentage of damage
    With FCL, the cargo has a lower probability of damage, since it is not reloaded at different terminals
  • Security
    The container is sealed and becomes a personal space for the cargo

LCL container

LCL container – full loading of one container with cargo from different customers.

LCL container

For which BUSINESS are LCL

containers best suited?

  • for companies that need to receive small batches of goods from different SUPPLIERS (goods are consolidated at the IMPORT.UA warehouse and then assembled into one container)
  • for CLIENTS who need to order samples of goods or test batches of goods to further determine the quality of products before concluding contracts with SUPPLIERS for large batches
  • for a one-time private order

ADVANTAGES OF LCL CONTAINERS

  • Low cost
    Payment is made only for the space occupied by the goods in the container, and not for the entire container. Therefore, LCL is a more economical option than FCL when shipping small cargo.
  • Flexibility
    You can not wait to collect cargo for a whole container, but send small batches of goods to replenish your trade stocks with new products and popular goods.
  • Regularity
    Transportation is carried out on a regular basis. This allows for systematic and regular sending and receiving of goods.

  • Reduced insurance costs
    Due to the fact that the cargo of many other clients is collected in one container, the burden of paying insurance is also redistributed and the CLIENT pays less.

  • Reliability of the supply chain
    LCL transportation is more reliable in conditions of shortage of containers, since it is much easier to find a place for LCL.
