How Much Does It Cost To Ship A Container To Lebanon?

Lebanon Container Shipping Cost

If you are thinking about shipping a container to Lebanon and the complex process of international shipping worries you, we have the solution. At Three Movers, we focus on offering the cheapest rates to our customers while handling their cargo with the highest level of care and professionalism. With over two decades of experience in the moving business, we are the company you want when you want to ship a container safely.

Factors That Affect the Cost of Shipping

Transparency is the cornerstone of our pricing policy. We break down all the factors that will impact the price of your quote to make sure you are satisfied with our terms. Here are the five major factors that affect the shipping cost of a container:

1. The destination port.
2. Your items’ weight and volume.
3. The distance.
4. The time of the year.
5. The chosen means of transport

You might ask yourself what the time of the year has to do with shipping costs. Demand drives pricing decisions, and during the high season (January, February, August, and September), shipping lines experience a spike in demand, and so the cost rises as well.

The destination port affects the price through the charges incurred on arrival. Since ports in one country are not necessarily under a central authority, the charges may vary. The experience and knowledge of our team at Three Movers is valuable in such situations. We will recommend the ideal options based on your needs.

Other secondary factors that will affect the shipping cost include:

• Insurance: Shield yourself from losses from unforeseen circumstances by paying a premium based on the value of your cargo.
• Customs fees: Lebanon’s port and customs authorities will require you to pay the statutory import duties.
• Inspections: This might not be necessary if your container is not selected for inspection. However, if it is, the inspection costs are passed on to you.
• General Rate Increase (GRI): Operators in the shipping industry protect themselves from making losses using the GRI. The rate is adjusted based on the changes in operating costs.

Which Size of Shipping Container Works Best for Me?

Once you have decided that the best way to transport your items to Lebanon is to use a shipping container, your next step is to determine which size will be suitable. We have two options:

1. The 20ft Container: If your items fit in a typicalthree-bedroom house or anything smaller than that, this size is the right one.
2. The 40ft Container: If your items fit in a typical four-bedroom house or anything bigger than that, this is the size you need.

Once you figure that out, the next choice is whether to share the container or have exclusive use of it. The Less Than Container Load (LCL) option applies when you are willing to split the container cost with another party. The Full Container Load (FCL) option applies when only your cargo goes into the container. You can select this option when your shipment covers the container’s entire volume or if you simply prefer that your items not be mixed with those belonging to other people.
