LCL/LTL FREIGHT – CARGO CONSOLIDATION

Sometimes (and quite often) businesses and private persons require to move a small shipment/parcel from one point to another. Ordering a full truck/container/railcar is by no means acceptable in such a case being excessively expensive. GRAND LOGISTICS LTD arranges deliveries of so called less-than-container-load (LCL) and less-than-truck-load (LTL) export and import cargoes. LCL and LTL shipments from different shippers consigned to different consignees but destined to the same place/region are consolidated to make a full container, truck or railcar load. Customer ordering LCL/LTL service always pays for the space occupied uniquely by his shipment in a container (truck, railcar). Consolidation (groupage) and deconsolidation (distribution) take place at special terminals or container freight stations (CFS) located in many regions across the world. LCL/LTL services are naturally associated with auxiliary services provided on demand:

• Loading/offloading
• Packing, labeling, sorting, tallying
• Pre-shipping assessment of parcels

We can take your shipment to a local CFS if you are a shipper or deliver it to you after deconsolidation if you are a consignee.
