What Our Ocean Freight Service Covers
Wintoo provides full-container load (FCL) and less-than-container load (LCL) ocean freight from major Chinese ports to key global hubs. Whether you're shipping heavy machinery or a few pallets of furniture, we arrange the right space at the right price. Our weekly consolidations to Europe, the US, and the Middle East ensure your cargo moves without unnecessary delays.
Routes and Schedules
We ship from Shenzhen, Ningbo, and Shanghai to Los Angeles, Rotterdam, and Jebel Ali. Transit time ranges from 22 to 35 days, depending on the lane and carrier routing. With carriers still rerouting around the Cape, we book space early and monitor schedules closely so your cargo doesn't sit at the port. Our team keeps you informed of any changes and adjusts as needed.
How the Process Works
- Quote and booking – Share your cargo details, and we provide a rate for FCL or LCL. We handle bookings with vetted carriers.
- Pickup and consolidation – For LCL, we consolidate your goods with other shipments at our Shenzhen warehouse. For FCL, we load your container directly.
- Export clearance – We manage documentation and customs formalities in China.
- Ocean transit – Your cargo sails on a scheduled vessel. We track it and update you.
- Destination services – We arrange import clearance and final delivery under your chosen terms: EXW, FOB, CIF, DDP, or DDU.
Who Ocean Freight Suits
Ocean freight is ideal for heavy, large, or cost-sensitive cargo. If you're shipping furniture, machinery, or bulk goods, sea transport offers significant savings over air. LCL is perfect for smaller volumes that don't fill a container, while FCL gives you dedicated space and faster handling for full loads. For time-critical shipments, consider our air freight or express services.
