Why a dedicated van to Aachen beats a pallet network
Where pallet networks add depot days and paperwork risk, one van and one driver stay on the same job from UK collection to Germany delivery.
From a mainland-UK collection point to Aachen we ship via eurotunnel or ferry, with legal driver rest scheduled under EU tachograph rules. Typical door-to-door around 3 days. No hub, no reload, no shared trailer — the same driver you meet at pickup delivers in Aachen.
