Ocean Freight
Less-than-container load services (LCL)
Damco offers full service solutions to meet all ocean transportation
needs. From single less-than-container load shipments to
complete multimodal solutions, we pride ourselves on providing
our customers with consistently high quality solutions, responsive
service and competitive rates.
Full flexibility
Using our extensive global network and dedicated less-thancontainer load specialists in key markets, our services cover
almost every origin and destination through 10,000 corridors
worldwide. With regular departures and fixed container freight
station closings, we ensure personal service and attention to
detail from pick-up to destination delivery.
Consolidate shipments and save time and money
With our multi-country consolidation service, we can consolidate
multiple less-than-container load shipments from different shippers
and origins into one full-container load (FCL) shipment. This gives
customers lower transit costs and fixed transit times using weekly
sailings and smooth connections to the final destination.
• All shipments arrive on the same day and in the same container
• Faster access to goods as container yard boxes can be collected
earlier than container freight station shipments
• One customs entry

container freight station shipments
