The Benefits of Dry and Refrigerated LCL Services with Eagle Logistics Systems
Shipping goods, whether dry or refrigerated, can be a challenge for businesses that don’t need a full container. This is where Less-than-Container Load (LCL) services come in.
By sharing container space with other shipments, businesses can save on costs, maintain flexibility, and enjoy reliable delivery. Eagle Logistics Systems specializes in providing both dry and refrigerated LCL solutions, helping businesses meet their shipping needs efficiently and cost-effectively.
What Are LCL Services?
Less-than-Container Load (LCL) shipping allows multiple businesses to share space within a container, paying only for the portion they use. Unlike Full Container Load (FCL), where one business fills an entire container, LCL consolidates shipments from various clients into a single container. This approach is perfect for businesses with smaller freight volumes that want to save on costs while ensuring their goods are delivered reliably.
