Consolidated shipment solutions for road transport

Freight consolidation, also called groupage or consolidated cargo, are smaller shipment volumes that are combined within a line haul truck at the Rhenus cross-docking hub. From there, we transport them in scheduled departures and arrange the delivery to a final destination.

Your partner for consolidated shipments

With locations across many countries as well as local partners, Rhenus provides door-to-door deliveries with optimum transit times. Sharing a truck with other customers also means sharing the costs – that is why consolidated freight transports are often the most cost-efficient option for smaller shipments. We offer both domestic transport and cross-border trucking for most types of cargo, including dangerous goods, and can support you with worldwide customs clearance.
