Transit indication

Use the DSV Scheduler as an indication of transit time.

Book DSV FTL at least two working days before loading, by 15:00. A one-person crew is standard, and loading and unloading take place from the rear via a ramp. The sender and recipient provide the loading and unloading equipment and carry out the work. Consignments with a goods value over 100 000 EUR need a pre-announcement at least 72 hours before loading.

DSV FTL does not carry removal goods, temperature-controlled goods, live animals, unpackaged plants or perishables, tobacco and alcohol, weapons and ammunition under weapons-control law, radioactive goods, consignments unloaded from the side or by crane, packages over 30 kg that a forklift cannot move, cash-on-delivery shipments, neutrality or avis orders, defined exclusion areas, or seaport consignments.

What does it cost?

The price you see in Sendify already includes all of DSV's charges. Up to 60 minutes' stand time is included; after that, 80 EUR per started hour applies.
