This tracker stores data locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded. It complements (not replaces) carrier track-and-trace: enter milestones from your carrier's notifications to keep one consolidated, private view across all providers.
FCL Shipment is the full-container move where one shipper owns the box door to door. This board tracks each container through the 9 milestones that actually matter for this mode — booked, container stuffed, at origin port and onward to empty returned — in one consolidated, private view.
About FCL Shipment Tracker
FCL's tracking advantage is identity: one container number traces the whole journey, so the discipline is watching the cost clocks (free time, detention) rather than finding the cargo. The status set above is built around that reality, which is why it differs from a generic shipment tracker's. Update each container as notifications arrive from your carrier, forwarder or driver; the completion counters keep the live pipeline visible, the ETA field keeps the morning scan fast, and the CSV export turns a quarter of updates into the mode's real performance record for planning and carrier reviews.

Frequently asked questions
What's the most important FCL milestone to act on?+
'Discharged'/'Available' — the demurrage free-time window opens there. FCL rarely loses cargo (the box number is traceable everywhere); FCL loses money when available boxes wait. Treat availability as a dispatch trigger, and track empty return with equal seriousness for the detention clock.
Which fcl shipment milestones matter most?+
The cost-bearing and decision-bearing ones — for this mode, watch discharged (where dwell starts costing) and the transition into empty returned (where the record closes). Rows that stall between those two stages are the ones worth a phone call today rather than a report next month.
Where does the milestone data come from?+
From the notifications your providers already send — booking confirmations, departure notices, arrival/availability alerts, PODs. This board is the consolidation layer you control: thirty seconds per update keeps one view current across every provider, which no single carrier's portal can give you.
Is the data shared with anyone?+
No — records persist in your browser's localStorage and never touch a server, which makes the board safe for commercially sensitive routings, volumes and customer names. The CSV export exists for the moments you DO want to share: a snapshot to a colleague, a dataset to your analyst, a status report to a client.
