Shared Container Shipping: Efficient & Cost-Effective
At Aurelia Shipping Line Pvt. Ltd., we specialize in LCL Cargo Consolidation Services, designed for businesses that need frequent, smaller shipments without the expense of a full container.

Receive your goods at our primary consolidation hubs in Mundra, Kandla, or Nhava Sheva.
Expert Stuffing & Lashing
Professional placement and secure lashing within shared containers to prevent damage during transit.
Strategic Routing
Direct sailings are prioritized to minimize trans-shipment and reduce handling risks.
De-consolidation
Swift separation of goods at the destination port followed by seamless final-mile delivery.
LCL vs FCL: Choosing the Right Mode
| Feature | LCL (Less than Container Load) | FCL (Full Container Load) |
|---|---|---|
| Volume | Best for 1 to 15 CBM | Best for 15+ CBM |
| Cost | Calculated per CBM (shared space) | Flat rate per container |
| Handling | More handling at CFS/Hubs | Minimal handling (Factory to Port) |
| Speed | Slightly longer (consolidation time) | Faster (direct movement) |
