Can you lay a fridge down for transportation?

Why do We Advise You Order by FCL (Full Container Loading)
Rather Than LCL (Less Than Container Loading)?

  • Save Your Freight Cost – FCL just meets the minimum unit of customs inspection, customs sealing and release of exporting and importing countries. What’s more, it reduces manpower and time in LCL.

  • Convenient Operation – FCL doesn’t need to coordinate the LCL of different goods from other companies.

  • Protect Your Products from Damage during Transportation – FCL avoids damage caused by goods of different companies during loading and discharge.

Mixing Container

Per our MOQ term, we can accept 3 models mixing in one container. Please let us know which models you want to mix, and we will send you the loading plan as below.

Example: CSL-160, CC-65A and T-50L Mixing in One 40HQ Container

Reefer Container

Reefer Container is a short form for Refrigerated Container.

Simply put, reefer containers are big fridges that are used to transport temperature-controlled cargoes. Some cargoes may need to be shipped chilled or frozen or in controlled temperatures. Reefer containers have the ability to maintain the cargo at the required temperatures for the duration of the transit.

If you have demand for reefer container, we can arrange for you.

Container Type Internal Dimensions (LxWxH) Cargo Weight Cubic Capacity
20FT Reefer 5.44×2.26×2.24 m 21,700 kg 27 m³
40FT Reefer 11.55×2.26×2.24 m 25,000kg 58 m³

Buying a Container

If you want to buy the container together with our goods (means you don’t need to return the container to the shipping company after goods arrival), we can also arrange it for you per your requirement. For example, a 70% or 100% new container.
