Consolidate and deliver

Consolidate batches from several suppliers in China. Confirm packed measurements, import responsibilities and the handover point in Switzerland.

What this package covers

What to send us
Supplier or package references, type of goods, Swiss delivery point and any known weights and dimensions.
What you receive
A plan for bringing the goods together and a freight proposal with the delivery point, required documents and any destination charges still to confirm.
  • Reconcile arrivals by batch

    We match expected and received packages to suppliers or purchase orders. Together we decide which batches should wait for one another and which can be sent separately.

  • Record the final packed shipment

    After consolidation and the agreed packing work, we record the number of cartons, outside dimensions and gross weight of each package. The freight quote uses these measurements.

  • Define delivery and responsibilities

    The quote states the Swiss handover point and agreed services. For your shipment, we clarify who provides import documents, pays applicable charges and clearance fees, and arranges the last leg of delivery.
