Groupage
Groupage involves combining cargo from more than one exporter or seller, or to more than one receiver for them to be shipped together in a single shipping container. It is a great saving opportunity for those who ship smaller quantities and volumes.
In groupage shipping, each freight container will carry several different LCL cargo shipments originating from one port to be delivered to another common port or separate ports. Depending on the volume of cargo to be transported, the groupage operator will book a container with the shipping line. This can be a 20’ or a 40’ container.
Once the loading of cargo is completed, the operator will issue a House Bills of Lading (HBL) to all the customers shipping goods by the container. The groupage operator will then collect the Master Bill of Lading from the shipping line.
