A method for merging cargos arranged in respective vehicles comprises receiving, by an electronic processing unit, weight and volume data of the first and second cargos carried by a first and second vehicle respectively, and determining at least a portion of the first cargo to be loaded to the second vehicle. Cameras and weight sensing tiles in the vehicles may automatically determine the volume and weight of the cargo 70, 72, 74 and the volume of the respective cargo areas is used to carry out the determination. The method also involves determining whether vehicles are present in overlapping areas 76, a completion time estimation, and meeting spot coordinates 82.
