Cargo consolidation
Cargo consolidation is the combining of several shipments or consignments from different importers into a single transport run (in one container or truck) so that each pays only for their own volume and lowers the delivery cost.
Consolidation is beneficial for small shipments: groupage cargo (LCL, part-load) travels together with the goods of other consignees. It is usually done at a consolidation warehouse in the country of departure.
