What is consolidated transport?
With consolidated transport, your shipment is transported together with other cargo in the same vehicle. The route is planned efficiently, so multiple shipments to neighbouring destinations are carried in one trip.
This makes consolidated transport an efficient alternative to dedicated transport, especially for shipments where the delivery time allows some flexibility. You benefit from a sharper rate, while retaining personal service and GPS tracking.
When is consolidated transport suitable?
Flexible delivery time
When the shipment needs to arrive quickly, but a small margin in the schedule is acceptable.
Cost-conscious shipments
For shipments where a sharper rate is desirable, without compromising on reliability.
Non-urgent goods
For goods that do not have the highest priority, but still need to be transported directly and personally.
Regular runs
For recurring shipments where efficient planning lowers costs.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between consolidated and dedicated transport?
With consolidated transport, your shipment travels together with other cargo, which makes the rate sharper. With dedicated transport, an exclusive vehicle drives directly for your shipment, which is faster but has a higher rate.
Is consolidated transport slower?
Consolidated transport can have slightly more transit time because the route combines multiple shipments. For shipments where some flexibility is acceptable, this is an efficient choice.
Can I still track my shipment?
Yes. Even with consolidated transport, our vehicles are equipped with GPS. You track your shipment in real-time during the trip.
Is consolidated transport available for international trips?
Yes. We combine cargo for European destinations within the EU. The route is planned efficiently with own vehicles and fixed drivers.
Is a request a confirmed booking?
No. A request via the form is a request. Your transport is only confirmed after we have personally confirmed it with you.
