Reconciling gross weight in the documents was an important step before customs clearance of a rail container in Poland.
Read the example →FCL or LCL — match the order
- FCL: a container for your cargo, selected according to dimensions and weight.
- LCL: space in a consolidation. The quotation accounts for volume, weight, terminal operations and agreed final delivery.
- Heavy moulds and individual pieces require confirmation of handling, securing and route acceptance.
Documents before the container arrives
- We check the data needed for transport: invoice, packing list, delivery terms and party details.
- Weight and package discrepancies are clarified with partners before clearance.
- We coordinate terminal operations, clearance with a broker and agreed delivery. Availability and cargo or route restrictions are checked before booking.
