English term or phrase: consolidation shipping
Less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments or LCL (Less than Container Loads) are consolidated to reduce per-unit transportation costs.

Consolidation of shipments is the process of combining several smaller shipments from different senders to reduce transport costs. The goods are transported in one container, which allows for reducing the shipping price. These types of shipments are also referred to as LCL – Less than Container Load.
