Ocean Freight
from China

One coordinated plan for supplier pickup, consolidation, export handling, international shipping and destination delivery.

Multi-supplier consolidation FCL & LCL options DDP / DDU assessment
Origin controlPickup, inspection and consolidation
Flexible loadingFCL, LCL and equipment planning
Document reviewShipment details checked before booking
Destination supportDelivery requirements coordinated in advance
More than a port-to-port booking

Control the shipment from the supplier—not only after it reaches the port.

Ocean freight is most reliable when cargo readiness, packaging, documents, routing and destination requirements are aligned before departure. JCD acts as your China-side coordination desk across those handoffs.

Suitable for commercial cargo, larger volumes, regular replenishment and shipments where total landed cost matters more than the fastest possible transit.

Choose the right load plan

FCL or LCL?

We compare shipment volume, cargo sensitivity, sailing options and destination charges before recommending a loading method.

01FULL CONTAINER LOAD

FCL Shipping

A dedicated container for one shipper. Often preferred for larger volumes, controlled loading and cargo that benefits from fewer handling points.

  • 20ft, 40ft and suitable equipment review
  • Factory loading or warehouse loading
  • Seal and documentation coordination

02LESS THAN CONTAINER LOAD

Your cargo shares container space with other shipments. Useful for smaller volumes where a full container is not required.

  • Supplier pickup and warehouse receiving
  • Measurement, checking and consolidation

Ocean freight FAQ

Questions importers ask before booking.

Final routing, costs and service availability are confirmed after reviewing the actual shipment.

Should I choose FCL or LCL?+

FCL is generally suited to larger or more sensitive shipments that benefit from a dedicated container. LCL combines your cargo with other shipments and can be practical for smaller volumes. We compare both around cargo size, deadline and destination costs.

Can JCD collect goods from multiple suppliers?+

Yes. Collection, inspection, repacking and consolidation can be coordinated before export. The exact warehouse and handling plan is confirmed after reviewing supplier locations and cargo details.

Do you provide DDP or DDU ocean shipping?+

Door-to-door DDP or DDU options may be available depending on destination, commodity and importer requirements. Final service availability is confirmed after cargo and compliance review.

What information is needed for an ocean freight quote?+

Please provide origin, destination, commodity, package count, dimensions, total weight, total volume, cargo-ready date and preferred Incoterm. Special cargo must be declared before booking.
