Port to port, door to door, business to business
No matter where in the world you may be shipping a full container load from and no matter where it has to get to, Approved has the expertise to find both the lowest costs and fastest paths to make it happen.
Unlike some companies that offer FCL shipping, Approved also has the ability to transport your cargo over that critical “last mile,” from the port to a warehouse, from the warehouse to a customer outlet, and anywhere in-between.

Container shipping made simple
Approved will work with you to find a shipping solution that best addresses your complete business needs. If you need your cargo wrapped or otherwise prepared for shipment, we can help. If you need cargo in an FCL deconsolidated and/or assembled and installed, we offer those services as well. If you simply have a full container load ready for pickup, we’ll be there for you.
The term “full container load” is not fixed, as there are varying sizes of containers that we use for varying customer needs. (Review details on FCL dimensions below.)
Read MoreA proven process
With decades of experience in FCL freight — experience that has resulted in loss and damage ratios that are some of the lowest in the industry — Approved has refined our process over the years and will take the time, every time, to ensure every customer knows exactly what to expect and when. Our process is simple, safe, and streamlined.
- First, we survey each customer on their business needs and related freight services needs
- Next, we schedule transportation of your goods according to your business operations (i.e., at a time that will be the least disruptive)
- We then assist (as needed or requested) in the wrapping and loading of your goods
- Following the loading, we transport an FCL to the port for shipping and monitor it in real-time during the voyage, reporting to you throughout
- We then offload your container from the ocean vessel and schedule a time/day for delivery of your goods
Have questions about any of these steps or any part of the process? We are here for you.
