This is even more economical than air travel, although a little longer. Your cargo will simply be in a consolidated warehouse until the required amount of cargo from other customers following in the same direction is collected, after which it will be safely delivered to its destination, and inexpensively.

Peculiarities and recommendations for cargo owners who order the transportation of groupage cargo.
– What are the advantages and disadvantages of groupage transportation?
Transportation of small consignments of small and medium-sized cargo belonging to different cargo owners as part of one groupage cargo is a very common phenomenon in international cargo transportation. For example, in Germany or the Czech Republic there is a consolidation warehouse of a forwarding company. Cargoes are delivered there from Scandinavia, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, the USA, Canada, Brazil. All of them are separate orders for the delivery of goods, but are united by a similar or the same direction of final delivery. It can be: Moscow, Kyiv, Chisinau, Minsk, St. Petersburg, Kharkov, Odessa, Donetsk, Bryansk. Any other city of the CIS. Among other goods, there is directly your small consignment of goods, for which ordering a full-fledged cargo transportation (separate transport) is not profitable.
In this case, your cargo is stored in a consolidated warehouse until it is completed in one transport with other cargoes following the water direction – to Russia, Ukraine or Moldova. The cost of such delivery for each cargo owner is formed in proportion to the quantity and volume of his cargo in transport, i.e. everyone pays for the delivery of their cargo. This is convenient for representatives of small and medium-sized businesses that do not have large turnovers and do not need separate transport for regular deliveries. Like other types of international cargo transportation, groupage transportation is carried out by all types of transport: air, sea and rail, but road transport occupies an indisputable leading position in the transportation of groupage cargo due to its high mobility, flexibility of routes, and effective control of cargo during transportation.
– What are the advantages and disadvantages of groupage transportation?
Of course, it takes time to complete the transport with different loads moving in the same direction. After all, sending an incompletely filled vehicle reduces the profitability of the flight and is not beneficial to either the forwarder or the carrier. Thus, winning in cost, you sacrifice the promptness of delivery. In this case, we recommend cargo owners to contact the forwarder in advance – this will minimize time delays, pick up transport in advance and schedule groupage cargo for a full trip.
However, for large forwarding companies with stable daily orders for cargo transportation to dozens of different directions, the speed of groupage cargo picking and the regularity of flights is quite high, which means that the delay in cargo delivery is never will be critical.
– What else should I pay attention to when ordering groupage?
At the consolidation warehouse, in addition to unloading / loading and ensuring the storage of your cargo, you may be offered other related services: repacking, scanning, weighing cargo, etc.
Direction of groupage transportation: Groupage cargo transportation from Turkey, groupage cargo transportation from Poland, Germany, Belgium, Holland, and other European countries, delivery of groupage cargo from the Baltic States, Belarus. Ukraine, Moldova, Romania. Transportation of groupage cargo from 100 kg from Russia, Kazakhstan and other countries.
Customs clearance of your cargo is carried out in the same way as if you ordered a full delivery of the cargo. This is undertaken by the freight forwarding company (depending on the terms of your contract), the owner of the cargo or the customs broker. Keep in mind that all cargoes forming a groupage transportation are of different origin and, accordingly, have different tariffs for customs clearance, so a singlecustoms clearance of the entire flight is excluded.
Preparation and execution of all other related documents (waybills, etc.) for crossing the border and delivering the cargo to its destination is carried out by the transport service provider (forwarder) in a consolidated warehouse by agreement with the cargo owner .
As a rule, groupage transportation provides for door-to-door delivery, so having ordered groupage transportation, you can safely wait for your cargo at the place of receipt. All details of cargo transportation are always discussed with the forwarding company that delivers the cargo.
