Groupage Cargoes are small consignments, for the carriage of which it is not advisable to use a whole vehicle. Assembled shipments are quite simple to determine. If we start from the capacity parameters of the whole euro-truck, it is known that they are 33 euro pallets. Thus assorted cargo is 8 pallets less, which is roughly no more than 22-25 euro pallets.
In building logistics schemes for the delivery of goods around the world, Suppliers are primarily guided by cost optimization. Supply chain members are constantly on the lookout for shipping questions:
- Which mode or combination of modes of transport is preferable to use?
- Whether or not warehousing, including cross-docking, is required along the supply chain?
- Where to issue export documents and prepare shipping documents?
- At what point does one need to begin preparing documents authorization?
- At what point does one need to perform customs clearance of cargo?
- What is the best way to deliver the cargo to the final destination?

It takes two working days to complete customs clearance for consolidated shipments. This is due to a large number of declarations in the truck, as well as possible technical problems on the part of Clients and customs. Collection trucks should leave customs clearance no later than Tuesday, so that consolidation and release or delivery of cargo begins on Wednesday.
All stages of customs clearance are monitored by our Staff. Customs and cargo inspections take place with the direct participation and presence of our Employees. This makes it possible to respond quickly to possible questions from the inspectors, to give extensive comments, to photograph the cargo for its identification by the customer, and coordinate with the central office the difficult moments during the inspection.
Also, our Personnel always contribute to quick customs inspections in order to meet the planned schedule of customs clearance.
