Why is groupage the best choice?
Groupage is the combination of several loads into one delivery. Such freight transport has many distinct advantages, and such an option is mostly chosen by those companies that need smaller freight transport at relatively low costs.
This service is the most rational solution in cases when the customer does not want to rent a vehicle specially designed for this case separately.
The method is simple: the customer’s cargo arrives at the warehouse of the selected logistics company, where after the other intended cargo in the specific direction is loaded in the transport, delivery is made to the address or warehouse specified by the recipient. This type of service has several advantages.
- Lower costs. Given that several cargoes are transported in one transport, the transportation costs are shared. This allows customers to make significant savings.
- Possibility to transport small loads. Larger transport cars will not want to carry small loads separately. In this case, the groupage option comes to the rescue, which allows to provide a logistics service even for relatively small cargo.
- Cargo transportation from any European country. For example, Upway Logistics, thanks to long-term cooperation with logistics professionals and institutions in other countries, is able to provide such a freight option throughout Europe.

What is usually carried in this type of cargo?
The principle of groupage can be applied to practically any product, because not all customers have enough products to order a full transport. The situation may be different with the transport of dangerous goods, where it would not be desirable to put dangerous goods together with other goods.
The most common types of groupage shipments are the supply of construction materials, the supply of food products, the supply of various furniture and household goods, as well as the door-to-door deliveries of goods.
In maritime transport, groupage also occurs in areas such as the relocation of production facilities and other technological equipment. Particularly in the case of larger import orders, the transportation of groupage cargo is more financially advantageous than undertaking to pay for transportation services alone.
