Should I use FCL or LCL sea freight for 300 KG to Senegal?
For 300 KG to Senegal, LCL (shared container) sea freight is typically the right choice unless your cargo exceeds 5–6 CBM or you're shipping regularly.

Can I track my shipment from China to Senegal?
Yes — all shipments include tracking. Air freight shipments receive an airway bill number (AWB) for real-time airline tracking within 24 hours of departure. Sea freight shipments are trackable via the bill of lading number through the carrier's portal. We provide status updates at key milestones: departure, port of entry, customs clearance, and delivery.
