A Full Container Load (FCL) means that your goods are the only cargo being shipped inside that shipping container. A Less-Than-Full Container Load (LCL) means that your cargo is being shipped along with other shipper´s goods inside the same shipping container. On the quote screen, consider LTL truckloads as “Less than Full” and any shipment by aircraft as “Full” for the purpose of insurance.
