LCL means that after the carrier accepts the number of the shipper less than the full container, it classifies according to the nature of the goods and the destination. The goods going to the same destination are gathered into a certain number and assembled into boxes. Because a box has different owners of goods assembled together, so called LCL. This situation is used when the shipper's consignment quantity is insufficient to fill the whole container. Classification, sorting, concentration, packing (unpacking), delivery and other work of LCL cargo are carried out in the carrier terminal container freight station or inland container transfer station.

LCL is the relative term for full container load, which refers to the small ticket goods that are less than a full box. This kind of goods is usually collected by the carrier respectively and concentrated in the container freight station or inland station, and then two or more tickets of goods assembled in a container, also in the destination container freight station or inland station unpacking respectively delivered.

For such goods, the carrier shall bear the packing and unpacking operations, and the packing and unpacking costs shall still be charged to the consignor. The carrier's responsibility for LCL is essentially the same as for conventional general cargo transport.

LCL can be divided into direct or transconsolidation, direct consolidation means that the goods in the LCL container are loaded and unloaded in the same port, and the goods are not unpacked before arriving at the port of destination, that is, the goods are the same port of discharge. This kind of LCL service is short, convenient and fast, and generally strong LCL companies will provide only such services. Transshipment refers to the goods in the container that are not the same destination port and need to be unloaded or transshipped in the middle of the container. Such goods due to different destination ports, long time to ship and other factors, so the shipment time is longer, and even high freight.
