Major Ocean Ports in the UK
The major sea and cargo ports in the UK include:
- Port of Felixstowe, which is perfect for the largest cargo ships
- Port of Southampton, which is the second largest in the UK
- Port of London, which is great for further rail freight and road freight
- Port of Immingham, which is commonly used for bulk cargo
- Port of Liverpool, which is the most central port in the UK
The Full Container Load (FCL) is great for large cargo taking up more than 20CBM. Sea freight from China to the UK can be delivered in a minimum of 25 days. However, the duration can easily increase to 60 days.
A major determinant of the number of days is whether the shipment has to be port to port or door to door. The latter takes more time than the former.
Nothing can be said with certainty about the cost of FCL shipping from China to the UK because the rates keep varying.
However, expect to pay around $60 to 90 on average per cubic meter. The cost varies greatly with two factors, which are:
- The source (Chinese) port;
- The destination (UK) port.
For example, while FCL shipping from Shanghai port to London port takes $1903 for a 40ft container, the cost of FCL container shipping from Shanghai port to Southampton is just $1596.
The Less Than Container Load (LCL) load also takes roughly the same duration of 25 to 60 days to reach the UK from China. LCL is perfect for startup or niche importers just establishing their supply chain. Bacolod offers additional consolidation services to facilitate LCL sea freight.
For LCL shipping, the rates from China to the UK are around $1000 for 200 kg / CBM. Specifically, the rates from Shanghai to London are $1068 whereas the rate is $1141 for Southampton.
