Save Space. Share The Journey.

A shared load allows compatible customers' goods to travel along the same general route where practical. It's an economical option for smaller moves, flexible customers and long-distance relocations where compatible capacity is available.

What Is A Shared Load?

Pay For The Space You Use — Not The Whole Truck.

A shared load means your furniture travels alongside other compatible loads heading the same general direction. Instead of paying for an entire vehicle, you only pay for the space your belongings take up.

This can be a significantly more economical option for customers who don't need an entire truck to themselves — like smaller household moves, single-item relocations, or moves where you have flexibility on collection and delivery dates.

Shared-load availability depends on route, space, scheduling and compatibility with other loads. If shared isn't available for your route or dates, we'll happily quote you on a dedicated load instead.

Is A Shared Load Right For You?

Who Shared Loads Are Best Suited For.

Not every move can be shared — and not every customer wants to share. Here's who gets the most value from a shared load.

Smaller Loads

You don't need an entire truck — just part of it. Pay only for the space your furniture takes up.

Flexible Dates

If you can be flexible with your collection or delivery dates, we can often find a shared load fit.

Popular Routes

Ideal on busy corridors like Durban ↔ Johannesburg where compatible loads are regularly available.

Single-Item Moves

Moving one couch, one fridge or a few boxes? A shared load is often the most sensible option.

Why Consider A Shared Load?

The Benefits Of Sharing Transport Capacity.

Shared loads aren't just cheaper — they're a smarter use of transport capacity when your move fits the model.

Potentially More Economical

You're sharing available transport capacity with other compatible loads, which reduces the cost allocated to your move.

Ideal For Smaller Moves

You don't need a dedicated vehicle for a few pieces of furniture. Shared load lets you move economically.

Great For Long-Distance Routes

Shared-load arrangements work especially well when compatible loads are travelling in the same direction across long distances.

Flexible Logistics

We assess your collection, destination, inventory and preferred dates to determine whether a shared-load option is suitable for your move.

Important — Please Read

Shared-load availability depends on route, space, scheduling and compatibility with other loads.

Because shared loads combine multiple customers' belongings, we can't guarantee availability until we've assessed your specific route, dates and inventory. Ask us directly whether a shared load is available for your move.

Shared vs Dedicated

Which Load Type Fits Your Move?

Shared loads are more economical, but they require flexibility and availability. If your move doesn't fit the shared model, a dedicated load may be the better option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Shared Loads — Common Questions.

A shared load allows compatible customers' belongings to travel within the same transport arrangement where practical. Instead of paying for an entire vehicle, you only pay for the space your belongings take up.

Yes. Shared loads are available where suitable, depending on route, available capacity, scheduling and compatibility with other loads. Popular routes like Durban to Johannesburg tend to have more shared-load opportunities than less common routes.

Usually yes, when it's available. Shared loads split the cost of transport between multiple customers, so you typically pay less than you would for a dedicated vehicle. However, shared loads require flexibility on dates and depend on compatible loads being available on your route.

Delivery times on shared loads can be longer than dedicated loads because the vehicle may make stops for other customers along the route. We'll give you a clear collection and estimated delivery window before you book.

Shared loads work best when you have some flexibility. You can request preferred dates, but we'll need to match your move with an existing compatible load. If your dates are fixed, a dedicated load may be more suitable.

The space allocated to your move depends on your inventory and how much capacity is available on the vehicle. When you request a quote, we'll assess your inventory and confirm how much space we can allocate.

Yes — single-item moves are often a great fit for shared loads. If you only need to move one couch, a fridge, a washing machine or a few boxes, sharing space on an existing route is usually the most economical option.

If shared isn't available for your route, dates or inventory, we'll quote you a dedicated load instead. There's no obligation — we'll always tell you honestly what's possible.

Yes. Your furniture is wrapped, secured and handled with the same care as a dedicated load. The only difference is that other compatible customers' items also travel on the same vehicle. Every item is tracked and accounted for.

Contact AGJ by phone, WhatsApp or email with your collection address, delivery address, preferred moving dates and full inventory. We'll assess route, availability and compatibility, then come back to you with a shared-load quote (or a dedicated-load quote if shared isn't suitable).
