    Information & Surcharges

    A transport is subject to various surcharges, which are adjusted every month to follow the costs in the market.

    When booking land transport, you must place your booking before 12:00 noon on the previous day.

    State the number of items, the measurements and the weight of the consignment and whether you wish to buy our cargo insurance.
