At EC Shipping, we provide comprehensive Full Container Load (FCL) shipping services tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're moving your entire household or shipping commercial goods, we have the expertise to handle your shipment with care and efficiency.
 

What is FCL Shipping?

FCL shipping is when an entire container is booked for your exclusive use. This is ideal for large shipments or when privacy and control are essential. You can either fully pack the container yourself, or we can assist with packing to ensure your belongings are securely transported.

Services We Offer for FCL Shipping

We offer flexible options depending on your shipping needs:

1. Full Packing Services
   Let our professional team pack your entire container for you, ensuring every item is carefully wrapped, loaded, and secured for safe international transport.

2. Partial Packing (Furniture Only)
   If you're looking to ship larger items such as furniture and prefer to pack your smaller items yourself, our team can handle the wrapping, packing, and securing of your bulkier items.

3. Self-Loading Services
   For those who prefer more control over their shipment, we offer a self-loading option. We deliver the container to your home or location, and you can load it yourself at your convenience. We also provide guidance to ensure the most efficient use of the container space.

Why Choose FCL Shipping?

• Exclusive Use of the Container: You have full control over the contents of the container, without sharing space with other shipments.
• Cost-Effective for Large Shipments: If you have enough goods to fill a container, FCL is typically more economical than shared shipping options.
• Efficient and Secure: Your items are loaded at the origin and remain untouched until arrival at the destination, reducing the risk of loss or damage.

2. Packing: Choose from full, partial, or self-packing services based on your preference.
