Consolidation is one of the simplest ways to lower freight cost on smaller orders. Yes – consolidating your freight with other shippers (LCL by ocean, LTL by road) lets you pay only for the space your materials use instead of an entire container or truck. It’s ideal for loads roughly between 150 and 15,000 pounds and is a key way to lower AK/HI freight costs.

How it works

Your materials share container/truck space with other shippers; you pay for your portion.

When to use it

For partial orders and top-ups. For full-project quantities, a dedicated container is usually better value.
