Deconsolidation

Deconsolidation is the act of separating out LCL shipments to prepare them for final delivery. A shipper’s cargo often shares container space with other shippers’ cargo. Thus, before it is dispatched for last-mile delivery, the cargo has to be separated based on the shipper’s requirements before being sent to its final destination. During deconsolidation, cargo shipments are broken into smaller units in dedicated facilities and repackaged into individual parcels. Once labeled, these parcels go straight out the door for last-mile delivery.
