摘要：

The analysis of the formation, development and implementation of forwarding activities by regional centers of consolidation (distribution) of groupage consignments of container cargo as the main elements of the modern container transport system, the essence of which is reduced to the connection of space and time with timely and safe delivery of goods with minimal costs, is performed. The methods of delivering groupage cargo to container terminals from the country rear zones in conditions of the transport process continuity, which requires taking into account the environmental behavior and the market of transport services, are disclosed. The existing strategic solutions aimed at forming a managed transportation system are considered and the new ones are proposed. The ways of reducing the total number of transshipments of small consignments on the way of introduction into the transport container system, are revealed. The forwarding services role for cargo shipments in the lowtonnage containers is revealed. Approaches to the problem of forming new standard cargo units that perfectly fit into existing containertechnological systems are considered. Such consolidation tools, like a standard container, are designed to ensure the cargo transportation safety during transshipment and transportation by the various means of transport, free and fast loading (unloading) of containers with cargo modules, as well as to limit unauthorized access to the cargo. Thus, the shipper will be able to take full advantage of modern container technologies. The alternative options for consolidating groupage cargo directly in the "end" points of goods consolidation and distribution on the basis of the standard module are showed in the study and recommendations for the proposed cargo units implementation as the means of consolidation are provided. The most rational way of organizing the groupage container cargoes transportation is proposed.
