LCL (Less Than Container Load): Ideal for Small to Medium Shipments

Sea freight is already an affordable option as compared to other freight modes, especially when you have a lot to ship. If, however, you do not have enough cargo to fill an entire container, the less-than-container-load will be the perfect choice. LCL shipping allows customers to share the container space with other shipments, making an economical choice.

DTDC has helped hundreds of customers shipping sea freight to Fiji from Sydney or sea freight to Fiji from Brisbane with LCL shipment, as one can ship a smaller volume without paying for an entire carrier.

FCL (Full Container Load) — Best for Larger Moves & Commercial Cargo

When you have a LOT to ship, and you know you will need an entire container just for your cargo, then this is where full container load comes in handy. We helped several shippers move houses, relocate, commercial imports, and businesses shipping bulk goods.

DTDC Australia can arrange both 20-foot and 40-foot containers as per your cargo requirements, departing from major Australian ports like Sydney and Brisbane. Shippers who have to move entire homes, or ship commercial cargo, choose FCL for more space, security and easy, predictable prices.

Customers across Greater Sydney can schedule pickups directly from their homes, warehouses, or business premises. Goods are transported to our Sydney consolidation facility, where they are prepared for export and loaded into containers.
