Full Container Load (FCL)
Utilising full container loads is the most cost-effective method of importing goods to the UK from Hong Kong.
​
With a flat-rate, per container fee, FCL is an affordable method to transport your consignment.
​
If your consignment won't fill a container, you have two options:
-
Wait until you accumulate enough order to make a full load
-
Import as 'Less than Container Load' (LCL)
Less than Container Load (LCL)
Less than Container Loads (LCL) is an ideal method to import smaller freight quantities from Hong Kong to the UK.
​
LCL involves multiple, smaller consignments from various shippers sharing a shipping container which ultimately reduces the costs of renting and transporting a container as you only pay for the space your goods occupy.
Air Freight
Albeit the more cost-effective option, sea freight can take weeks to reach the UK.
​
If you require your consignment to reach the UK border quickly, air freight may be a better option for you, however, it can be considerably more expensive than sending an LCL or FCL from Hong Kong the UK via ocean freight.
