joint shipment tracking

joint shipment tracking refers to monitoring multiple packages combined under one tracking number or shipped as a consolidated batch. This practice is common among freight forwarders or bulk shipment handlers, especially in B2B commerce. While efficient, joint tracking can lead to confusion when individual items aren’t scanned separately at every checkpoint. Businesses should communicate this structure to customers to avoid tracking-related concerns. It’s also important to choose partners who offer transparent tracking updates throughout the logistics chain.
