Multi-supplier orders
Several suppliers, none of them filling a container, and no single place for the goods to land.
Consolidation shipping // multi-supplier handoff
Combine goods from your existing suppliers into one checked shipment.
Buying from several suppliers who each ship a few cartons? Goods land at our warehouse in Yiwu, at Shenzhen International, and wait there until the shipment is complete. You hand over one load instead of chasing five.

View routeBest fit
For buyers who have suppliers and need receiving, checks and consolidation.
Consolidation is worth it when you are buying from more than one supplier and none of them fills a container alone. Goods land at our warehouse in Yiwu, at Shenzhen International. We hold them until the shipment is complete, then hand over one load instead of several.
Multi-SKU small batches
Many SKUs in small quantities, where the risk is a carton count that does not match the packing list.
Pre-shipment risk closeout
Everything is nearly ready and you want the shortages and damage found here, not at destination.
Not a fit: no supplier list, cargo-ready date, or destination data
Without a supplier list, cargo-ready dates and a destination, any freight number we give you is a guess. Those inputs come first.
Workflow
Consolidation shipping starts with supplier handoff and carton data control.
First we ask whether you already have a freight forwarder you trust. If you do, we ship to them and stay out of it. If you do not, we go to the forwarder we work with, get their rate, and pass it to you with our handling stated separately. You see the quote we were given, not a bundled number.
01
Build supplier and SKU receiving list
Receiving sheetSend supplier and order references, SKU quantities, carton estimates, cargo-ready dates and the destination. Keep each supplier’s delivery linked to the receiving sheet.
02
Control packaging, labeling, and QC release
Release gateCompare arrivals with the approved SKU and carton list. Record shortages, damage and incorrect labels; agree replacements, rework or quantity changes before the shipment is released.
03
Verify CBM, weight, and documents
Shipment dataWeight and volume are measured, not copied from the supplier's sheet. The difference shows up as a freight surprise otherwise.
04
Handoff forwarder and landed-cost inputs
Logistics handoffThe forwarder gets a clean load and accurate documents. You get their rate and our handling as separate lines.
Shipment proof
Consolidation should leave reviewable carton, quantity, and document evidence.
Before the container closes you get the carton count, the measured weight and volume, and photos of how the load was stacked. Ocean freight is booked through a forwarder. We are not a carrier and do not pretend to hold carrier rates — you see the quote we were given, and our handling is listed separately.
SKU and carton data sheet
Carton counts and measured dimensions recorded on receipt, so a shortage is found here rather than at destination.
QC and packing release
Labels and carton marks checked against the destination before the load is closed.
Documents and forwarder handoff
Invoice and packing list matching the cartons that actually shipped — the mismatch is what holds goods at customs.
Carton cost planning
Carton measurements, a scale and freight notes on a warehouse desk before shipment planning.
FAQ
Consolidation shipping questions buyers ask first.
Tell us which suppliers are shipping and roughly when. We receive, check and hold the cartons, then quote the freight — the forwarder's rate and our handling shown as separate lines.
Is Aeonix a freight forwarder?
No. We are not a licensed forwarder or a customs broker, and we do not pretend to hold carrier rates. We handle the China side and hand a clean load over to whoever is moving it.
What needs a separate charge or approval?
Confirm receiving, inspection depth, storage period and charging start date, repacking materials, labels and handling in the written scope. Obtain approval for changes. Ask the forwarder which destination handling, brokerage, duties, taxes and final delivery remain outside freight; do not assume they are included.
How do I choose LCL, FCL, or courier?
It comes down to volume against urgency. Courier for small and fast, LCL when you cannot fill a container, FCL once you can. Destination charges often decide the marginal case, so check those before choosing.
Shipment proof
One shipment out, instead of five suppliers shipping separately.

Products / Sourcing / Wholesale
Yiwu consolidation starts with a supplier and carton record
Record each SKU, supplier, ordered and received quantity, carton marks, dimensions, gross weight and packing condition. Keep sample cartons, retail sets and items requiring special handling identifiable throughout pickup and consolidation.
Before supplier pickup
Confirm collection location, ready date, contact, product identifiers and expected carton count. Give each supplier a reference that stays with the receiving record.
Receiving and mixed-SKU checks
Compare received quantities with the order, photograph relevant differences and record missing items or packaging issues. Agree whether the scope includes repacking, relabelling or set assembly.
Fragrance, liquids and other handling requirements
Provide the actual product and transport information before booking. Carrier acceptance, storage and co-loading arrangements depend on the goods and packaging reviewed for the shipment.
Export and freight handoff
Use the final carton list, dimensions and gross weights to compare shipment options. Assign responsibility for invoice and packing-list inputs, open documentation questions and the forwarder handoff.
