Groupage cargoes
One of the main types of international transportation offered by our company is consolidated cargo delivery.
Consolidated cargo is a type of freight transportation that consists of separate units and packaging volumes. In most cases, consolidated cargo shipments are carried out “door-to-door.” Thanks to these factors, groupage cargo is one of the most popular forms of goods transportation and delivery today.
Consolidated shipments involve the transportation of small-sized cargo for various clients in one direction using a single vehicle. Consolidated shipments help reduce the delivery costs of small-sized cargo, as they allow for the most efficient use of the vehicle's cargo space, positively affecting delivery costs. The main stage in the consolidated cargo transportation chain is the consolidation of small batches from multiple shippers in a warehouse. Our consolidation warehouses in Europe and the CIS serve as starting points for regular consolidated cargo transportation.
We are ready to offer our clients the delivery of these cargos from anywhere in the world using any convenient mode of transport, with subsequent consolidation and assembly in one of our warehouses for further delivery to the specified address, including full documentary support throughout the entire cargo transportation route.
The advantage of our company is that we provide a "door-to-door" service, taking on all technical and legal issue resolutions, as well as documentation processing.
The main consolidated cargo transportation scheme:
- Transporting the individual cargo from the shipper's warehouse to the consolidation warehouse for batch assembly.
- Handling the cargo in the consolidation warehouse, which may include weighing, sorting, labeling, repacking, and additional packaging.
- Completing export or transit customs clearance and preparing transport documents for shipping the goods.
- Sending the consolidated cargo to the destination country by sea, rail, or road transport.
- Completing customs procedures (import clearance) in the destination country, as well as preparing documents necessary for further sale of the goods.
- Delivering the individual cargo to the specified address.
