Optimized Load Consolidation for Lower Transportation Costs

Groupage provides an economical alternative to FTL by allowing businesses to ship smaller quantities at significantly reduced cost. At Lex Logistics, we optimize trailer space by consolidating shipments with compatible freight types, ensuring each load is secure, organized, and routed efficiently.

Our consolidation process focuses on:

  • Maximizing trailer space for cost efficiency
  • Maintaining proper separation for each customer’s goods
  • Aligning routes with customer delivery schedules
  • Building loads that minimize transit time

Every consolidated shipment is structured for efficient movement while maintaining strict cargo care standards.

Smooth Handling for Small and Medium-Volume Freight

Not every shipment fills a truck, but smaller volumes still require careful preparation and safe transport. Lex Logistics handles pallets, mixed cartons, boxed items, and orders with varying SKUs—ensuring each type of freight receives professional care.

We ensure:

  • Controlled receiving and sorting of cargo
  • Secure consolidation to avoid damage
  • Order integrity throughout transit
  • Professional handling for all load types

Flexible Scheduling for Dynamic Supply Chains

Groupage works best when paired with flexible, recurring scheduling. Lex Logistics offers weekly or multi-weekly departures depending on route demand, enabling customers to restock inventory, plan seasonal operations, and manage supply flows more effectively.
