Consolidated Freight
Consolidated freight, or LTL shipping, is a logistics solution where multiple shipments from different customers are combined into a single transport vehicle. Each shipment retains its individual destination and handling requirements, but the costs, space, and environmental impact are shared.
Instead of waiting to fill a full truckload, your goods can move sooner, supported by a network of scheduled consolidated departures. With Vermilion, your partial loads benefit from the same precision and care as larger consignments.
What Is Consolidated Freight?
At Vermilion Foreign Trade and Logistics, we understand that not every shipment fills an entire truck, and not every business operates on large-scale freight volumes. That’s why we specialize in consolidated freight services (LTL – Less Than Truckload) that offer a cost-effective, reliable, and flexible transport solution for businesses shipping smaller volumes from Turkey to Europe.
Whether you are a manufacturer exporting seasonal goods, a distributor testing a new market, or a small enterprise growing your customer base in Europe, consolidated transport enables you to deliver efficiently without overextending your logistics budget.
Why Choose Consolidated Freight?
Cost-Efficiency: Pay only for the space your shipment occupies. Reduce empty space and avoid paying for unused capacity.
Frequent Departures: Our regular consolidated transport schedule to France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain means your goods don’t sit in a warehouse waiting for space.
Door-to-Door Delivery: We handle the entire process from pickup in Turkey to delivery at your customer’s address in Europe.
CMR Insurance: All shipments are covered by international transport insurance, offering peace of mind at every step.
Eco-Friendly Logistics: By maximizing load efficiency, consolidated transport lowers fuel consumption and carbon emissions per unit shipped.
