01 / THE KEY STEPS

From preparation
to handover.

What matters for Water & Soft Drinks – and how we turn it into a coordinated transport process.

01 / BEFORE COLLECTION

Goods & packaging

Actual pallet weights and packaging type matter. We consider bottles, cans, crates, trays and permitted stacking.

02 / ON THE ROAD

Transport & timing

For promotions and seasonal peaks, we coordinate quantities, call-offs and vehicles. Loading is planned by weight and available pallet spaces.

03 / AT THE DESTINATION

Handover & records

Receiving needs suitable delivery references. Empty returns and pallet exchange are agreed separately to identify outbound and return quantities clearly.

AGREE IN ADVANCE

For alcoholic products and cross-border shipments, we clarify required accompanying documents in advance.
