LCL
Perfect for smaller shipments, our LCL freight services provide a range of options for those who do not wish to make use of FCL (Full Container Load) options. Island UK offer a flexible schedule and a range of destinations, ensuring that our LCL service is able to fulfil your import freight, export freight and distribution needs.
When shipping less than 15 cubic metres of cargo, LCL services provide a more economical and cost effective form of freight shipping for when a full container would not be suitable. Island UK manages your cargo within our existing network, offering leading load consolidation services at a competitive price.
For any enquiries, please contact us or check our sailing schedule .
FCL
If shipping over 15 cubic meters, FCL becomes a much more cost effective option for freight forwarding. Generally, FCL provides a greater degree of safety, control and faster transit due to less general handling and an easily trackable unique container number.
Island UK provide unrivalled FCL services at a competitive price. We are dedicated to providing a leading service, using our decades of experience to offer comprehensive shipping and consolidation packages.
