Merge in transit (MIT) service allows assembly and transport to occur simultaneously. Carriers pick up separate shipments from two or more sources and ship the components to a location near their final destination where a merge operation is performed. The merge operation can range from simple cross-docking consolidation to value added logistics (VAL) activities. Trucks carrying various PC components arrive at specified meeting points within hours of each other and merge the components to finished products.
