FEATURES
How to Ship from China to UK by Sea Freight
You can use various methods to transport your products via sea freight forwarding. From renting an entire container for your cargo to sharing it with other shippers like you, ZGGShip offers you different sea freight methods to move your products securely and quickly from China to the United Kingdom.
Full Container Load (FCL)
Shipping via full container load (FCL) refers to paying for the entire shipping container, either 20-foot or 40-foot, for moving your goods. Take control of cargo loading and unloading for safer handling and have enough space for you.
Less than Container Load (LCL)
If you want to pay only for the amount of space your goods occupy, that works too! Using less than a container load (LCL) shipping, you can transport your goods at more economical prices, whether via palletized or loose LCL cargo.
Bulk Cargo
Items and goods like oil and coal are classified under bulk cargo, which is further categorized into dry, liquid, or free-flowing. We can also transport goods that are non-containerized, such as vehicles and plane parts.
Out of Gauge (OOG)
Shipping products that do not fit inside the standard containers are generally done with out-of-gauge (OOG) freight. This also applies to goods with abnormally shaped indivisible loads (AILs), such as aircraft components and colossal machinery.
Roll-on/Roll-off
Using roll-on/roll-off (RORO) freight forwarding is applicable when you are planning to transport wheeled cargo. You may move your goods using pure car carriers (PCC), pure truck carriers (PTC), or other types of RORO.
Reefer Container
Transport perishable and temperature-sensitive goods like fruits, food, and others, safely and on time using reefer containers. By refrigerating these perishable products, they would maintain their quality when being transported.
