Pallets and crates are available for bulky loads. As an authorised DHL forwarder we provide full tracking history for every shipment, which also supports any claim should loss or damage occur. Our coordinators monitor transit and raise customs queries early, and repeat clients receive a contracted DHL rate that keeps the cost per kilogram low.
