The importance of logistics cannot be ignored in the face of increasing consumption rates in today’s developing world. Logistics, or shipping and transportation as it is also known, is the name given to the provision of resources such as products, people and services where and when they are needed. If a customer’s loads do not fill a container or transportation vehicle, partial transportation comes into play.
The word partial, which is used to mean partial, incomplete and a part of the whole, is a form of transportation that aims to reduce costs in the transportation industry. In English, it is defined as LCL, meaning “Less Container Load”. Partial load transportation is the filling of the empty space by taking the load of other buyers in cases where the vehicle carrying the load cannot be filled completely.
Partial transportation is highly preferred in both domestic and international transportation, thanks to the location of our country. Partial transportation, which is very important for the transportation sector, is a method that offers various important advantages to its customers and logistics companies.
