Dachser offers sea freight LCL expedited service from China to the USA
Weekly scheduled Shenzhen / Shanghai to US West Coast direct expedited services bring average dwell time down from 14-25 days to 3-7 days
HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 17 March
2021 - In response to the current ports congestions in the US West Coast
resulting long dwell times and unreliable shipping schedules, Dachser launches LCL expedited service
connecting China to the US with sharp cut on dwell time.
Logistics
service provider Dachser offers LCL expedited service connecting China and the
US West coast amidst port congestion.
The new service is answering customers
who are looking for a reliable solution upon the congestion issue at the ports
of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which has been happening since early February
and is not expected to alleviate in short future. Capacity problems, labor
challenges, long dwell times and unpredictable shipping schedules were creating
record delays that straightly impacted customers' businesses. Dachser,
therefore, introduced LCL expedited service, which offers much-needed
reliability with fixed weekly schedules as well as faster end-to-end transit
times.
Dachser's expedited LCL service is
offering two routes: The Port of Yantian/Shenzhen to the Port of Los Angeles
and the Ports of Xiamen, Ningbo and Shanghai to Port of Long Beach. Both routes
offer fixed schedules, expeditious transit times and reduced dwell times. The
route from Shenzhen to Los Angeles offers a 12-day transit time and the Port of
Shanghai to Long Beach offers a 10-day transit time, compared to the standard
LCL transit time of 14 days and 13 days respectively. The Port of Shenzhen
offers late cut off and the Shanghai to Long Beach route offers a dedicated
terminal facility and a right-sized vessel approach for faster loading and
unloading.
"Not only does the LCL service
shorten the transit time, but the dwell time is cut down by two-thirds. For
example, the average dwell time from China to the Port of LA is typically
around 14 to 25 days, but with our LCL expedited service, the dwell is 3 to 7
days. When we save our customers time, we save them money," said Sebastian
Wulff, Head of Ocean Freight at Dachser USA.
Wide array of
outstanding capabilities and benefits that deliver speed and value
With dedicated LCL teams located
both at the port of origin and destination, shipments are managed
expeditiously, efficiently and transparently.
Further, Dachser's new LCL expedited service offers exceptional
advantages such as priority pick-up, drayage and loading at port of origin as
well as priority unloading at the destination port with general cargo only in
order to limit customs holds.
"Our LCL service has been specifically
designed to support the urgent requirements of our customers with smaller quantity
shipments from China to the U.S. This service not only optimizes efficiency and
reduces costs, but with a fixed weekly schedule, it also provides
peace-of-mind," added Wulff.
