FCL or LCL
A full container load gives you a 20-foot or 40-foot container to yourself. It is usually cheaper per unit once you fill most of a container, and it moves faster at destination. LCL lets you pay for the space you use in a shared container, which suits smaller or more frequent orders.
We look at your volume and schedule and tell you where the break-even sits. When several suppliers ship at once, consolidation in China can turn several LCL loads into one container.
Routing to Houston
Cargo from China reaches Houston either all-water through the Panama Canal or by landing on the West Coast and moving inland by rail. We price both and pick the one that fits your deadline. Transit is about 30 to 40 days all-water, or roughly 3 to 4 weeks via a West Coast port and rail.
- Space booked with carriers serving Barbours Cut and Bayport
- West Coast landing plus rail when speed matters more than cost
- ISF, entry, and delivery handled in one plan
- Milestone updates from factory pickup to delivery
Built for businesses that import on a schedule
We work with brands, Amazon sellers, e-commerce and online store owners, wholesalers, retailers, and manufacturers that bring in shipments regularly, most often from China. Any product category works, as long as it is physical commercial goods. That is where our door-to-door service pays off: we plan the freight, clear customs, and deliver, shipment after shipment.
