11. CROSS-DOCKING What is cross-docking? The cross-docking definition is a distribution system of goods, whereby goods are received directly at the warehouse or a distribution center. Goods are not stored in storage but are always ready to be shipped to retail stores. Cross-docking requires harmony and rhythm between receiving and delivery activities. The cross-docking technique significantly reduces distribution costs in logistics.

14. MARSHALLING Marshalling is characterized by multiple source nodes which produce a range of products that have some commonality with one another. Therefore we can obtain the same type of end product from various combinations of source nodes. The product is then on-sold or moved through a converging supply chain to an end user.

15. CONTAINERIZATION Containerization means the increasing use of the containers as a support for freight transportation. It involves processes where the containers are increasingly used because it either substitutes cargo from other means of transport or it is adopted as a mode supporting freight distribution, the reason being that a large number of transport systems are able to handle containers.
