01 / THE KEY STEPS

From preparation
to handover.

What matters for Building-Materials Trade – and how we turn it into a coordinated transport process.

01 / BEFORE COLLECTION

Goods & packaging

Bags, boards and insulation are recorded by weight and pressure sensitivity. We clarify packaging, stacking and weather protection.

02 / ON THE ROAD

Transport & timing

Dispatch considers access, vehicle size and site windows. Tail lifts, cranes and forklifts must be expressly requested as unloading needs.

03 / AT THE DESTINATION

Handover & records

Handover takes place at the agreed point. Free space, contact and unloading readiness must match the planned arrival.

AGREE IN ADVANCE

Cranes, forklifts, truck-mounted forklifts and indoor delivery are included only by express agreement.
