How much does it cost to ship a container to Honduras?

Any list purporting to indicate the price to ship a container to Honduras with any degree of accuracy would be out of date within a short time from publishing. There are so many factors involved in rate setting, such as the availability for shipping capacity and the demand for the same, fuel prices, and other economic forces.

Then, of course, there is the fact that pricing depends on the characteristics of the individual shipment, including elements such as the size of the container (20-foot or 40-foot) to be shipped, the countries and ports of origin and destination, the type of service that the shipper requires, and the route, schedule, and pricing policies of the chosen carrier.

A rough guide to pricing is possible, though, which is why we’ve put some information on this page relating to rates and prices for shipping containers to Honduras.

Ocean freight to Honduras

Our less-than-container-load (LCL) and Full-container-load (FCL) shipping services bring you all the benefits of ocean freight, including the convenience and flexibility of shipping cargo in containers.

Container shipping is convenient because there are no complicated processes involved in loading, unloading, and transhipping your cargo. It’s flexible because you can choose from FCL and LCL services depending on your needs and the volume of goods you wish to ship.

For anything from a couple of pallets of goods, to as much as 15 cubic meters of freight, LCL shipping can be an economical way to move your cargo to Honduras. That’s as long as you don’t mind it traveling in a container shared by other shippers’ consignments.

If you need your goods to be isolated from others during transit, you might want to consider sending them as FCL freight instead. In any case, FCL often proves the most cost-effective way of shipping larger consignments (from 15 cubic meters of freight upwards).
