Product Detail
Fixed Weekly Space on Hede & ZIM Services
Hede & ZIM Fixed-Booking Sea-Card secures contracted space on Hede (Shanghai-LA) and ZIM services, giving you a schedule you can plan around without full Matson express rates. It is the middle tier between Matson express channels and economy general-vessel truck delivery.
Reference transit: 15-18 days to LA-area FBA warehouses; 24-26 days to Chicago-area warehouses. A UPS courier delivery option (tax-inclusive, final leg by courier instead of truck) typically completes about 17-18 days after port arrival.
Why Sellers Choose This Channel
- Fixed weekly bookings keep replenishment cadence predictable across the season.
- Based on typical schedules, transit on the LA routing sits about 3 days behind Matson, at a lower rate tier.
- Same tax-inclusive truck delivery and warehouse-appointment standards as our express channels.
Acceptance & Handling
- Volume weight 1 CBM = 167 KG (heavy cargo 1 CBM = 363 KG); billed on the greater weight. 100KG+ standard; 21-100KG accepted with a small-goods surcharge.
- General cargo standard; batteries accepted with MSDS and sea transport appraisal.
- Formal 9810 declaration supported; dual-customs tax-inclusive handling available.
FAQ
- Is space really fixed? Yes - bookings are locked against our contracted weekly allocation on Hede and ZIM services.
- Which warehouses are covered? LA/Ontario-area codes and the Chicago routing as standard; ask for other Midwest codes.
Share your monthly volume to lock fixed weekly space on the next Hede/ZIM sailing.
