Special and dedicated transport is freight that does not fit groupage: the vehicle carries only your load, door to door, with no transloading. You reach for it when the deadline is measured in hours, the cargo is high-value or sensitive, or its dimensions and weight do not fit a standard trailer. We match the vehicle and route to the specific case and hold the deadline the whole way.
What it covers
- An exclusive vehicle for a single load: no part-load, no transloading, one route from sender to consignee.
- Vehicle selection to suit the shipment, from an express van to a full-truck rig, depending on dimensions, weight and urgency.
- Urgent and time-critical moves where the delivery window matters, not just the drive itself.
- High-value and sensitive cargo that must not be transloaded or left standing on other people's pallets.
- Non-standard and oversize loads: trailer selection, individual securing and, where needed, permits and pilot escort, in line with load-securing rules (including standard EN 12195).
- Combining with customs clearance when the load crosses a border from outside the EU, so the truck does not sit at the frontier.
How we do it
We start from your case, not from a price list. We establish what moves, where to, by when, and what the cargo cannot take: transloading, shocks, delay or moisture. On that basis we choose the vehicle and plan the route so it fits the delivery window with a margin for checks and driver working-time limits.
For abnormal loads we arrange the required travel permits, a designated route and pilots where they are needed. For sensitive shipments we agree how the item is secured and cut the number of points where anyone touches the load. If a border from outside the EU is involved, we tie the transport to clearance so formalities do not eat the time you gained.
Limits of the service (what it does NOT cover / what to be aware of)
We do not promise a deadline that cannot be met within driver working-time rules: an honest window is calculated realistically, not wishfully. We do not carry ADR dangerous goods without correct classification and paperwork, because a wrong declaration risks detention and penalties at inspection. Declaring the load and its value correctly is the sender's responsibility. The carrier's liability under the CMR Convention is capped by shipment weight (Article 23), so for high-value cargo CMR alone may not cover the loss: a claim pays out a fraction of the value, not the full amount. The answer is cargo insurance matched to the real value of the shipment.
