D. Increase the weight of shipments and consolidate loads Consolidating shipments and increasing their weight allows the shipper to benefit from economies of scale, effectively reducing the transportation cost per unit. This strategy is generally more cost-effective compared to using less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments, which can be pricier on a per-unit basis.
