Requirements
High goods value – what we need to know
A high goods value changes the planning: who takes over, how is the journey made, is the statutory liability sufficient? For that we need to know the value – not in the first form, but before the quote.
What matters
- State the value
- The goods value belongs in the requirements call; it affects insurance and form of transport.
- Liability and insurance
- Statutory liability in road haulage is limited. Additional insurance can be taken out by agreement.
- Form of transport
- Direct transport and few people involved reduce handover points.
- Handover
- Handover to named persons and documentation create clarity.
Planning questions
We clarify these points before quoting – the earlier they are known, the more precise the plan.
- Roughly how high is the goods value?
- Do you have your own transport insurance?
- Should additional insurance be considered?
- Who may take over and hand over?
- Are there confidentiality requirements?
What we need from you
- Goods value (in conversation, not in the form)
- Insurance status
- Handover persons
- Date
What we do for you
What we organise
- Individual planning of your consignment – handling, date and handover aligned
- Direct transport without transhipment and documented handover by agreement
- Additional insurance on request – scope clearly agreed in the quote
Good to know
Share the goods value in the call – then we match form of transport, handover and, on request, additional insurance precisely to it.
