Groupage transport with iCaro
What exactly is groupage transport? Groupage refers to the transportation of goods that take up only a relatively small portion of the loading space. These are typically small items of various shapes that cannot fill a container or vehicle on their own. They have a stable form and moderate volume. This type of shipment is often referred to as LTL (less than truckload) in truck transport or LCL (less than container load) in sea freight. Sometimes the term PL (partial load) is also used. Groupage shipments may be separated during transshipment.
Domestic and international groupage freight is just part of our extensive offer. We deliver shipments to every corner of Poland and Europe, and even beyond the continent. One of the many advantages of this service is its lower cost compared to full truckload or oversized transport. Smaller goods are easier to combine with other shipments into one vehicle, significantly reducing final delivery costs.

Domestic and international groupage freight
Groupage transport requires careful planning. It’s about optimizing costs to make the service as cost-effective as possible for the customer. Our freight experts always offer professional advice. The best specialists are available to you 24 hours a day, offering free consultations and tailoring the service to your individual needs and budget. Groupage freight usually involves securing goods on industrial pallets, Euro pallets, or in containers. Goods may also be transported loose or in other protective packaging (e.g., boxes, buckets, crates, bags, barrels, etc.).
International groupage shipments
International groupage transport is the ideal solution for companies or individuals shipping just a few pallets abroad. They don’t need a full vehicle (e.g., 24 tons), and choosing another form of transport would be uneconomical and inefficient. This segment usually involves a high number of dispersed shippers and recipients.
We deliver the following via international groupage transport:
♦ furniture,
♦ household appliances and electronics,
♦ steel and metal constructions,
♦ building materials,
♦ food products,
♦ industrial machinery,
♦ electronic equipment, and more.
