How does cargo consolidation work?
Your cargo is combined with cargo from other shippers at the consolidation warehouse. This reduces the cost for everyone involved.
Reception of cargo to the consolidation warehouse
Your cargo is delivered to a consolidation warehouse in the country of departure (China, Türkiye, Europe). We accept cargo from different senders.
Sorting and packaging
Cargo is sorted by route, packaged and labeled. Each shipment receives a unique tracking number.
Flight formation
Cargo is combined into one flight according to the destination. The flight is formed when the truck is 70-90% full to optimize cost.
Transportation
The truck follows the route. At the borders we go through customs. Real-time tracking at every stage.
Unloading and delivery
At the destination warehouse, the cargo is separated and delivered to each recipient. You receive a notification that it is ready for pickup.

How is LTL cost formed?
Transparent formula with no hidden fees. The cost depends on volume, weight and route.
Cargo volume (m³)
The main factor. The larger the volume, the higher the cost. Minimum - 0.5 m³ (1 pallet).
Пример: $150 per m³ × 5 m³ = $750
Cargo weight (kg)
For heavy cargo (more than 300 kg/m³), a weight tariff is applied.
Пример: If weight > volume × 300 kg/m³, then calculation by weight
Route
The distance and complexity of the route affect the cost. Popular routes are cheaper.
Пример: China → KR: $150/m³, Europe → KR: $200/m³
Cargo type
Fragile, valuable cargo - +10-20%. Standard cargo - base rate.
Пример: Electronics: +15%, Clothing: base rate
Additional services
Pickup from the supplier, packaging, insurance, customs are paid separately.
Пример: Fence: +$50, Insurance: 0.5% of the cargo value
Urgency
Urgent consolidation (3-5 days instead of 7) - +20-30%.
Пример: Regular: 7 days, Urgent: 3 days (+25%)
