WHAT IS FREIGHT CONSOLIDATION?
Freight consolidation is the combining of small shipments into a larger one and is completed at the original point of departure. Combining the shipments into a single container allows shippers to take advantage of a lower shipping rate and adds a higher degree of security.
Consolidation also offers savings where two individual shipments can be combined into one of smaller volume. When the shipment arrives at its destination, it is deconsolidated.
