Groupage Shipping

Some Individuals or Businesses find it more convenient to deliver their products in pallets, bales, boxes, etc. Groupage or LCL (less than container load) service can be a better option where the items are fewer or less than a container load. Groupage shipping involves combining multiple smaller shipments from different senders into a single container for more efficient transportation.

 

At Teks, we only require you to provide us with the dimensions and weight of each packed item, so we can quote you accurately. As freight forwarders, we do understand that the issue of pricing is usually of the utmost importance, this is why we strive to make sure that we find decent pricing options available, taking into consideration the number of items, the nature of products, and the time scale required

 

TEKS offers its groupage shipping as a shared container option, where the shipment is a combination of more than one supplier, who shares volumes of the container space with other suppliers hence saving costs. A groupage is grouping based on volume, the type of goods, their condition, and their final destination. The cost of filling the container will be split between suppliers and the cost considerably cheaper. Our Groupage shipping will be an ideal choice for commercial and private trade commitments as a less expensive way of shipping larger and smaller consignments. Don’t hesitate to call us today, we are here to assist!
