Trailer transport of goods – An attractive freight alternative
Trailer transport has become an increasingly attractive freight alternative. The main reason is shorter lead times and cost-effective transport of cargo. The most common goods to transport during trailer transport are pallet goods, piece goods, bulk goods and full loads. When you transport your goods without hauliers, you get to choose whether you want to transport FTL (Full Truckload Truck) or LTL (Less Truck Load), a choice that has a major impact on both lead times and shipping costs.
If your goods are not of large enough volumes to fill the entire cargo space, LTL shipping can be a more cost-effective option where you share the cargo space with other importers.
Lagen om inrikes vägtransport (LIV)
När det gäller inrikes vägtransport finns det en lag (LIV) som tillämpas på avtal vid godstransport på väg mellan olika orter i Sverige, om avtalet avser transport mot ersättning. Lagen om inrikes vägtransport (LIV) gäller även om transporten går via ett annat land om lastning och lossning sker i Sverige. Om fraktavtalet är enligt internationell godsbefordran på väg (CMR) gäller dock speciella fordringar. Vi på EDS hjälper er med inrikes vägtransport.
