What information do I need to request a quote?

To request quotes from our freight forwarders, you need to have the following information on hand:

Origin and destination locations including availability of a dock
Date when the shipment is ready for pickup
Dimensions and weight of your cargo depending on type of service request
Customs and insurance details on your cargo like:
- HS-code of your cargo (or a good description of your goods)
- Total value of your cargo

It takes about 24 hours to receive most of the quotes.
