      Tips for cheap shipping with our freight cost calculator

      We will be happy to give you tips on how you can save money when shipping your goods. For a cost-effective and smooth process, you should package your goods in the most space-saving way possible. However, be careful not to understate the weight and dimensions. Otherwise, you may incur additional costs.

      In addition, the goods should be securely packaged and not protrude beyond the edge of the pallet. Damaged goods cost shippers, forwarders and consignees money, time and nerves.

      How to save on shipping

      Package goods as space-saving as possible

      A shipment measuring 60 x 80 x 150 cm should be shipped on a one-way pallet (80 x 60 cm) to reduce shipping costs. If the same shipment is shipped on a Euro pallet, the space requirement increases and so does the price.

      Dimensions & weight should not be underestimated

      Do not understate the dimensions and weight of your shipment. We can all make mistakes, but dimensions too small and weight too light cause additional costs.

      What influences the shipping costs?

      A number of factors play an important role in calculating your freight costs.

      1. The transport route can have a big impact on the price. It’s not just about the kilometers driven. Depending on the area that is passed through and in which region the pick-up and delivery locations are located, prices may vary. In the case of freight forwarders, for example, very short trips are relatively expensive. The reason for this is the high fixed costs. The provision of vans and drivers incur costs that are more significant for short trips.
      2. Transported goods: Dangerous goods or harmless pallet goods? The type of goods transported plays an important role in calculating the price. For example, do the goods need to be transported in a specific vehicle? Pallet shipping is usually the transport option with the lowest cost.
      3. If you book a Full Truck Load or a Direct Load, the transit time can be shortened. Groupage freight takes a little longer, but is less expensive.
