Minimization of transport costs by cargo consolidation

Often, when transporting a small amount of goods, it is not possible to completely fill the cargo compartment. It is too expensive and impractical to rent a half-empty container, and it will take a lot of time and effort to collect the required volume. Therefore, small shipments can be carried out as part of a consolidated cargo.

Cargo consolidation is the combination of small consignments of goods from different senders for further delivery to recipients. Such a system allows you to quickly form the cargo and deliver your goods. The service can be carried out without placing goods in a warehouse (in the cross-docking mode) or include short-term storage in warehouses. To simplify the process of storage and sorting, as well as to provide access to up-to-date cargo data, computer-aided storage is used. Goods of the same batch do not have to have a common destination, delivery is made to points located on the same route.

Consolidation steps:

1. Receipt of goods at the warehouse of the logistics company.
2. Acceptance and processing of cargo, preparation of relevant documents.
3. Moving cargo to a warehouse for temporary storage and forming a combined batch.
4. Picking up consignments of goods to the desired shipment volume.
5. Loading and delivery of goods to the recipient.

Cargo consolidation allows you to:

• minimize the cost of transporting goods;
• fill the useful volume of transport optimally;
• save time for transportation;
• reduce the number of trips and empty runs.

In addition to financial benefits, the quality of storage, competent handling and safe transportation of goods in accordance with the regulations are guaranteed.
