FCL & LCL Ocean Freight to the USA
Ship to the U.S. by full container or consolidated ocean freight, then connect arrival with ANL’s drayage, warehouse handling and domestic delivery.
What is ocean freight?
Move import cargo by sea, as FCL or LCL.
Ocean freight transports goods by ship. FCL uses a container for one shipment, while LCL combines smaller shipments in shared container space. The chosen mode determines how cargo is prepared and handed over after arrival.

After arrival, FCL follows a container pickup arrangement. LCL is collected from the applicable cargo-release point after deconsolidation.
