Long-distance transport of valuable goods

Plan your transport

Statutory driving and rest times for drivers are part of every plan and limit how far a vehicle can travel in one day. So collection in the morning does not necessarily mean same-day delivery over long distances. Check whether next-day delivery suits your job or whether collection can be brought forward. For sensitive goods, we clarify with you whether and how the shipment stays in the vehicle overnight and what that means for temperature and access.

Arrival the next morning: often the best choice

On long routes, delivery early the next morning is often easier to plan than a late arrival on collection day. The recipient is available, goods-in is open and there is time for checks and set-up. Tell us from what time the recipient can accept.

Direct runs over long distances

A direct run without transhipment can also be planned over long distances: the shipment stays in the same vehicle from collection to delivery. This reduces handovers and makes the process more predictable. We show you whether this makes sense for your job compared with a combined tour.

Good to know

Plan your transport

Is same-day delivery possible over long distances?

That depends on distance, collection time and the rest periods to be observed. Give us the collection and delivery locations with your preferred date; we will tell you which schedule is realistic and show alternatives such as earlier collection or a target window the next morning.

Transport solutions

01

Dedicated vehicle or shared trip: what affects the price

On a direct run, your shipment is collected and taken straight to the recipient without transhipment and without groupage. The vehicle works to your schedule – that brings predictability and fewer handovers, but costs more than a combined tour. We show you when each option makes sense for your valuable shipment.

02

Agree a sensible time window for handover

A good time window describes when a handover is actually possible – not only when it would be ideal. The more precisely we know the options at collection and destination, the more reliably we plan the process. If you need a fixed time, for example before a presentation, we tell you openly what it means for your job.

03

State temperature and humidity requirements in your request

Electronics, optics, bonded assemblies or art objects can be sensitive to cold, heat, humidity and condensation. If this applies to your shipment, state the requirement as a specific range with its source. We then check which vehicle, timing and handover plan suits your job and record what has been agreed before the order is placed.
