Groupage shipping is a service that allows customers with small loads to move together. Customers save money when variable costs are split according to how much they have to ship. Groupage shipping combines your goods into one shipping container. It is also more cost effective than air freight.
When to use Groupage Shipping
- You only need to ship a few items.
- Your cargo doesn’t fill a container.
- You don’t mind sharing a container with other people who are moving to the same destination.
- You want to share the costs of container freight and logistics.
- You’re ok waiting a bit longer for your goods to be delivered.
How does it work?
You will share a container with other CM Relocation customers moving to similar international locations. By consolidating several customers into one shipping container, you pay only for the volume you need. Groupage is always much cheaper than airfreight or a direct Less than Container Load (LCL) service. Shipping via groupage instead of airfreight or direct LCL means you only pay for the volume you use. Groupage shipping makes sense if you’re shipping a small number of items and don’t want to pay for unnecessary space.
