Questions

Before you ship

Quick answers to what clients ask most.

See all questions
How do I get a freight quote?

Send the origin, destination, number of cartons or pallets, dimensions, weight and a description of the goods. Use the quote form or call the operations desk. Most quotes are returned the same working day.

What is the difference between FCL and LCL?

FCL (full container load) books a whole 20′ or 40′ container for your goods only. LCL (less than container load) shares a container with other shippers and is charged per cubic metre. LCL suits smaller volumes; FCL usually becomes cheaper once you fill around half a container.

Which documents do I need?

Usually a commercial invoice, a packing list and the transport document: an air waybill, bill of lading or CMR. Some goods also need certificates of origin, licences or permits. We confirm exactly what applies to your shipment.

Who pays customs duties and taxes?

That depends on the Incoterm agreed between buyer and seller. Under EXW or FOB the buyer normally pays import duties; under DDP the seller does. We can explain the options and estimate costs before you book.

Ready to move your next shipment?

Send us the route, the cargo and your deadline. We reply with a clear price and transit time, usually the same working day.
