from China to Mexico LCL Sea Freight: Professional Freight Collect Shipping Service
Are you searching for a trustworthy and cost-efficient logistics solution for shipping goods from China to Mexico? BETTERluck Shipping (Guangzhou) Limited, boasting over 18 years of professional experience in the freight industry since 2007, specializes in LCL (Less than Container Load) sea freight services with the flexible payment term of freight collect. We serve as a solid bridge between Chinese manufacturers and Mexican businesses, delivering seamless global cargo transportation that integrates "best services" and "cheapest prices" for all your "made in China" products. Whether you’re importing electronics, furniture, machinery components, textiles, or consumer goods, our extensive logistics network guarantees your shipments arrive at Mexican destinations safely and punctually.
Our Core Service: China to Mexico LCL Sea Freight (Freight Collect)
Freight collect, commonly referred to as collect shipping, is a favored arrangement among Mexican importers. Under this term, the consignee (your business in Mexico) takes responsibility for paying the freight charges upon the delivery of goods. This model empowers you with full control over the shipping process—allowing you to align delivery timelines with your inventory plans and optimize cash flow through our competitive rates. Our LCL service consolidates your goods with other compatible shipments in a single container, eliminating the need to book an entire container (FCL) and drastically reducing your logistics costs. It’s the perfect solution for small and medium-sized orders, startups, and businesses looking to test Mexican market demand.
Comprehensive Port Coverage: We operate from all major Chinese ports—Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Ningbo, Qingdao, and Xiamen—to Mexico’s key gateway ports, including Manzanillo (MXZLO, Mexico’s busiest container port), Lazaro Cardenas (MXLZC), Veracruz (MXVER), and Altamira (MXALT). Manzanillo, located on Mexico’s Pacific coast, is our primary hub, offering fast inland distribution to major Mexican cities like Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey.
Transparent & Reliable Transit Times: Direct sea freight from China to Mexico takes 22-30 days (Pacific coast ports like Manzanillo/Lazaro Cardenas) and 35-45 days (Gulf coast ports like Veracruz/Altamira) . Transshipment services (via Panama Canal or US ports) are available for cost-sensitive shipments, with transit times of 32-42 days. We offer fixed weekly sailings with leading carriers to ensure consistency for your supply chain.
Versatile Cargo Acceptance: We handle a wide range of "made in China" goods, including general non-hazardous cargo, electronic devices, home appliances, automotive parts, furniture, textiles, toys, and Amazon Mexico FBA shipments. Special arrangements are available for oversized cargo (e.g., machinery parts), fragile goods (with custom packaging), and temperature-controlled items (e.g., certain food products, pharmaceuticals) upon request.
China-Mexico FTA Benefit Support: Leverage the China-Mexico Free Trade Agreement (FTA) to enjoy preferential tariff rates—even zero duties—on qualified products. Our expert team assists in preparing and verifying the Certificate of Origin (Form B) and other required documents to ensure you maximize tariff savings. If you miss submitting FTA documents during import, we guide you through Mexico’s duty refund process (valid within 12 months of clearance).
End-to-End Logistics Solutions: Our service covers every step of the journey: door-to-door pickup from Chinese suppliers (across Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and other manufacturing hubs), warehousing and consolidation in our Guangzhou facility, export customs clearance, ocean freight, import clearance in Mexico, and final delivery to your warehouse or store in Mexico (DDU/DDP terms available).
Flexible Payment Methods for China-Mexico Trade
We understand the complexity of international payments and offer diverse, secure payment options to accommodate both Chinese suppliers and Mexican importers. We accept local and global currencies, ensuring smooth transactions for every business partner:
Payment Methods | Accepted Currencies |
XTransfer | CNY, USD, EUR, AUD, CAD, GBP |
Bank T/T (Telegraphic Transfer) | HKD, JPY, SGD, BRL, MXN (Mexican Peso) |
Alipay & WeChat Pay | GHS, ZAR, NGN, TZS, and more local currencies |
For freight collect shipments to Mexico, your team can settle the freight charges via Mexican local bank transfers, XTransfer, or our partner payment platforms upon delivery—providing maximum cash flow flexibility for your business operations.
