Packing... an important issue!

Especially when you are sending your goods as groupage it is important solid packing is arranged.
You can arrange this yourself, or have it arranged for you.
It is clear having a company pack your goods is expensive, and you can save yourself a lot of money when you arrange the packing yourself.
It is very easy nowadays to get removal aids and packing material as you can order it online, on the right side of this page you can find several internet solutions.
Or visit a DIY shop (eg Gamma, Praxis, Karwei)!
 
When you arrange the packing yourself it is important to consider the regulations with respect to packing material, applicable to several countries.
Specific information per country can be obtained from us.
In any case, never use other than approved wood; wood must carry the ISPM15 marking!
Do visit the SMHV (Stichting Markering Houten Verpakkingen) website about this subject!
 
Also, don't forget to mark your shipment, at least name and destination, on every item!
 

Let us, in our depot, load your boxes and small(er) items on pallets, shrink wrap them with foil, and arrange the marking! Thus creating solid shipping units, and minimizing the chance of possible damage! The costs? Only Eur 75,- per pallet!

 
When you are loading a container it is important to arrange solid lashing & securing.
During the transport a container always moves a little and loading without lashing & securing is asking for damage.
By good loading and lashing & securing by means of ropes and slings you avoid a lot of hassle!
Here also goes: we can also arrange the packing of the container for you!
