FCL & LCL Container Logistics

Professional B2B Sourcing Services

ATI ENTERPRISE CO PTY LTD provides sea freight, container consolidation, warehousing, and local destination delivery. We organize Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL) consolidation shipping lanes linking main Chinese logistics hubs (Shenzhen, Ningbo, Yiwu, Shanghai) with major Australian terminals.

1. FCL and LCL Consolidation Shipping Options

Depending on order volumes and structural deadlines, we customize container allocations to balance cost efficiency and transit speed:

• Full Container Load (FCL): Exclusive container usage. Recommended for volume orders of a single category (like hardware or packaging boxes). Offers faster transit times as containers do not require sorting at local container freight stations (CFS).
• Less than Container Load (LCL): Cargo consolidation for multiple clients. We combine your pallets with other cargo bound for the same destination, allowing small and medium B2B buyers to access ocean shipping rates without committing to full container MOQs.

2. Container Types, Capacity & Payload Reference

Understanding weight limits and capacity volume is key to shipping efficiency. Below is our standard container reference table for sea freight shipping between China and Australia:

Container Type	Internal Length	Internal Volume Capacity (CBM)	Maximum Payload Weight	Best Suited Sourcing Goods
20-Foot General Purpose (20GP)	5.89 Meters	Approx. 28 - 30 CBM	21,800 - 25,000 Kilograms	Dense heavy cargo: steel fasteners, anchor bolts, hand tools
40-Foot General Purpose (40GP)	12.03 Meters	Approx. 56 - 58 CBM	26,000 Kilograms	Medium density goods: auto mats, plasticware, gift packaging
40-Foot High Cube (40HQ)	12.03 Meters	Approx. 68 - 70 CBM	26,000 Kilograms	Bulky light cargo: bedding textiles, plastic organizers, electronics

3. China Warehousing, Sorting & Palletization Depots

We operate consolidation depots in Yiwu, Ningbo, and Shenzhen. Sourced items from multiple suppliers are collected and organized before container loading:

• Consolidation & Sorting: Receiving bulk shipments, verifying piece counts against packing lists, inspecting carton condition, and labeling items with warehouse location codes.
• Palletization & Shrink-Wrapping: Building standardized timber pallets, applying corner edge boards, and shrink-wrapping cargo to prevent shift damage during heavy ocean transit.
• Container Stuffing Audits: Supervising the container stuffing process, recording seal numbers, and taking loading photos to ensure weight is evenly distributed.
