Freight Guide: Shipping from Qingdao to Adairsville, GA

Sea Freight

• FCL (Full – Container Load)
  • Given the absence of direct FCL services from Qingdao to Adairsville, transshipment is the go – to option.
  • On Mondays, COSCO offers a relatively quick 29 – day transit, while HAPAG has a much longer 75 – day transit and ZIM a 47 – day one. Shippers can choose based on whether they prioritize speed or cost – savings with a longer lead time.
  • Tuesdays feature ONE with a transit time ranging from 38 – 45 days and HAPAG with 74 days. This provides a couple of choices for mid – week – starting shipments.
  • Wednesdays have HMM with a 46 – 56 – day transit, ONE from 41 – 46 days, and YML from 40 – 46 days. These options allow for flexibility in meeting different delivery timelines.
  • Thursdays have HMM with a 49 – day transit, a straightforward choice for shipments on this day.
  • Fridays offer HMM with a 40 – 53 – day transit and YML with 35 – 41 days. Shippers can select according to their urgency and budget.
  • Saturdays present a wider variety. HMM has a 38 – 56 – day transit, MAERSK with 56 days, ONE from 50 – 55 days, OOCL from 36 – 42 days, and COSCO also from 36 – 42 days. This gives ample options for weekend – starting shipments.
  • Sundays have HMM with a 36 – day transit, a relatively quick option for the end of the week.
• LCL (Less – than – Container Load)
  • For smaller – volume shipments, LCL services follow the same transshipment schedules as FCL. Sharing container space with other shippers makes it a cost – effective solution. Shippers can pick from the available carriers and their transit times based on their delivery requirements and budget constraints.
