Back Consolidation, FTL, LTL in Europe

If you are looking for a partner who puts you and your needs first, entrust your goods to our road freight experts who take care of your cargo from the doorstep to its final destination.

Groupage services: Shipment consolidation for reliable planning and maximum efficiency

Are you looking for a pan-European consolidation partner, who you can rely on for standardised services and definite lead times?

Our groupage services provide you with all that – and more. Depending on your required delivery time, you can choose between three service levels:

  • Standard – delivery with standard lead times
  • Fix – delivery on a fixed day
  • First – delivery on the first possible day

The Fix and First service levels come with a money-back guarantee for the surcharge fee.

Please note that FIX and FIRST shipments are currently not available for outbound flows from the UK.

Sometimes, you may have additional requirements for your international groupage shipments – such as deliveries with tail-lift, time window deliveries or customs services. For situations like this, simply use the Groupage Scheduler to get an overview of the extra services available at the pick-up and final destinations as well as of the lead times for your chosen lanes.

The Kuehne+Nagel managed and controlled groupage network serves destinations in more than 40 European countries via more than 3,000 international weekly departures. To ensure that you receive a business efficient and environmentally sustainable solution without compromising on reliability or transit times, our destinations are connected by direct lanes and supported by our strategically located hubs. Complemented with clearly structured rates, our Groupage services maximise your planning security wherever your freight needs to go.
