Consignment Handling
Consolidation, deconsolidation, and consignee coordination, documented and visible from arrival to release.
Not every container belongs to one owner, and not every owner fills a container. Consolidated cargo is where consignments get mixed, short-shipped, or released to the wrong party, and it is the part of the chain that rewards good record-keeping more than any other. It is also the part where a missing piece count turns into a claim.
Britex handles consolidation and deconsolidation with a count and a paper trail at every step. Where one container carries cargo for several consignees, each is dealt with on their own file: notified separately, documented separately, and released only against their own authority. More than 3,000 consignments have been processed through that discipline to date.

What consignment handling covers
Consolidation, deconsolidation, and consignee coordination, organized, documented, and visible from arrival to release.
Consolidation
Cargo from several shippers loaded into one container, each consignment documented and marked in its own right.
Deconsolidation and devanning
Import containers stripped and cargo separated to consignee, piece-counted against the manifest as it comes off.
Consignee coordination
Each party notified, updated, and dealt with individually, so nobody is waiting on somebody else's paperwork.
Documentation trail
Every movement recorded from arrival to release, which is what makes a discrepancy answerable instead of arguable.
Marking and segregation
Cargo marked and stored by consignment so parts of a shipment do not travel out on somebody else's delivery.
Release control
Goods handed over only against verified authority, with the release recorded on the same file as the arrival.
How a consignment is handled
- 01
Container arrives at the station
The box is received, logged, and matched to the manifest of consignments inside it.
- 02
Cargo stripped and counted
Goods devanned, piece-counted, marked, and segregated by consignee.
- 03
Consignees notified
Each party is told what has landed for them and what is needed to release it.
- 04
Released against authority
Cargo handed over to the right party on verified documentation, and the file closed.
Who this is for
LCL and groupage shippers
Volumes that do not fill a box and should not pay for one.
Traders and importers
Part-container consignments that need to arrive complete and countable.
Freight forwarders
A station that will deconsolidate carefully and account for every piece.
Distributors
Mixed loads that need separating and releasing to several destinations.
