Requesting additional transport services

Plan your transport

Walk through the process from readiness to the finished state at destination and note who does each step. Commonly requested are on-site packing, extra helpers for heavy items, carrying up stairs, floor and door protection, unpacking at destination and taking back packaging material. We check with your request whether a particular service can be offered for your job and show it as a separate item in the quotation.

Typical additional services and what they require

Carrying up stairs: number of steps, weight of the heaviest item, width of the stairwell. Unpacking at destination: scope required and what happens to the material. Floor protection: type of floor and length of the route. Taking back empties: quantity and whether immediately or later. The more precise these details, the better the quotation fits.

Clarifying specialist services separately

Installation, connection, commissioning, calibration or hanging artworks are specialist services usually handled by your team, the manufacturer or a specialised provider. We time the transport to fit, so that handover and specialist work follow each other smoothly.

Good to know

Plan your transport

Can I add services later?

Yes, in principle. However, later additions can change staffing, time and price, especially shortly before the date. The earlier a service is known, the better it can be planned – so please report changes before the transport day where possible.

Transport solutions

01

Clarify kerbside handover or delivery to the final position

At the vehicle, on the ground floor or right at the point of use on the third floor: exactly where handover takes place changes staffing, time and planning considerably. We deliver valuable shipments to the agreed final position if you wish – what matters is that the handover point is fixed beforehand and stated in the quotation.

02

Assess existing packaging before a transport

Is the old crate still fit for purpose, is the original box enough, or does the item need new packaging? That question should be answered before the collection date. We help you assess it from photos and your description, so your valuable goods travel in packaging that suits the route and handling.

What determines the cost of a high-value transport

What does it cost to transport a prototype, a measuring instrument or an artwork? Distance is only part of the answer. Size and weight, timing commitments, the effort at collection and destination, and whether a vehicle runs solely for your shipment matter at least as much. Knowing these factors helps you understand any quotation – and save costs deliberately.
