International road freight across Europe: part loads or full truckloads, ADR dangerous goods and links to ports and airports, with clear tracking from collection to delivery.

At a glance

Road freight, flexible and direct

For trade between European countries, road transport strikes an excellent balance between transit time, cost and flexibility. It delivers directly from one loading bay to another, with no transhipment. It is also an essential link before and after air or sea freight. We organise your shipments according to volume, urgency and the nature of the goods.

Part load

LTL: share the truck, cut the cost

One or a few pallets do not justify a whole truck. With a part load, your goods travel alongside other shippers’ cargo on the same route. It is the most common option for SMEs and online retailers shipping regularly within Europe.

  • From a single pallet
  • Rates based on weight and loading metres
  • Dock-to-dock collection and delivery
Full truckload

FTL: a dedicated vehicle for your load

For large volumes or sensitive goods, a full truckload goes straight from your site to the consignee. Less handling, a more direct route and better control of your schedule. We choose the vehicle to suit your load and any access constraints.

  • Curtainsider trailer or van
  • Tail lift, refrigerated, flatbed
  • Booked delivery slots
  • Direct route, no transhipment

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

Do I need a customs declaration for a shipment within the European Union?

No, goods move freely within the EU. Formalities do apply, however, for shipments to or from a non-EU country such as Switzerland or the United Kingdom.

How should I prepare my pallets for road transport?

A stretch-wrapped, strapped and clearly labelled pallet of standard dimensions reduces the risk of damage and makes loading easier.

Can you collect from a site without a loading dock?

Yes, a truck fitted with a tail lift can be arranged. Simply mention it in your request.
