FAQ
What is 20GP? Full name and when to use it?

How much cargo fits in an 20GP from Ningbo?
An 20GP (20ft General Purpose) holds roughly 33 cbm with a payload limit near 28.2 tonnes. Real capacity depends on carton dimensions, palletisation and density: dense cargo hits the weight limit first, light bulky cargo hits the volume limit first. Send carton specs and piece counts and we will run a stowage estimate.
How far ahead should I book from Ningbo?
Allow 7–10 days on regular lanes, and longer in peak season, before long holidays, or for special equipment. Cut-off and documentation deadlines at Ningbo shift with each sailing; we confirm the exact milestones once the vessel and voyage are fixed. Space availability is subject to formal quotation and booking confirmation.
What documents are needed for FCL export clearance at Ningbo?
Typically a packing list, commercial invoice, customs authorisation and export contract, plus any commodity-specific permits such as inspection certificates or licences. Ningbo Customs District applies extra inspection rules to certain categories, and food products additionally involve GACC registration. The final list follows the HS code.
Can an 20GP carry cold-chain cargo?
No. The 20GP is a dry box with no refrigeration. Fresh produce, pharmaceuticals and other temperature-sensitive cargo need a reefer solution; we can recommend a setpoint and equipment combination by commodity.
Rates and space vary with lane, sailing and cut-off, and are subject to formal quotation.
