Assembly Service

Categories: Company Management

Also known as cargo consolidation or consolidation service, assembly service means that a whole bunch of shipments (sometimes from multiple companies) are combined into one shebang and sent to one designated place. There are companies that specialize in cargo consolidation, which makes life easier for companies looking to save time and cash.

On a smaller level, you might experience similar services if you move across the country. If you don’t have a full truckload of items, you could hire a moving company that specializes in consolidated services. As a result, your items will share truck space with the items of others, which allows you to get a better rate.
