Frequently asked questions

Ocean freight, answered

Straight answers on FCL and LCL pricing, transpacific transit times, and terminal-to-door delivery.

What's the difference between FCL and LCL?

FCL gives you a full, sealed container; LCL shares container space and you pay by volume. Above roughly 15 CBM, FCL is usually faster and cheaper. We recommend the right mode at quote time.

How long is transit from Asia to Los Angeles?

Typical transpacific transit is 12 to 18 days port-to-port depending on origin and carrier, with express services as fast as 11 days from Busan. We provide a door-to-door ETA at booking and track it live throughout the voyage.

How much does ocean freight from Asia to Los Angeles cost?

FCL rates from major Asian ports to Los Angeles and Long Beach typically range from $1,500 to $4,000 per 40-foot container depending on origin, season, and carrier. LCL is priced per cubic meter. Every AEEM quote is all-in, covering ocean freight, fees, and surcharges upfront.

Do you handle overweight or hazmat containers?

Yes. We move reefer, hazmat, and out-of-gauge cargo with the proper carrier approvals, permits, and compliance documentation.

What happens after my container arrives at the port?

We track your Last Free Day, book the terminal appointment, and dispatch drayage through our vetted carrier network for terminal-to-door delivery. Pre-pull and storage options are available when delivery windows are tight.

Do you handle customs clearance and delivery?

Yes. Customs clearance is coordinated through licensed customs broker partners, including ISF and entry filing. Once your container is released, our drayage network delivers terminal-to-door across Southern California and nationwide.
