    Why a dedicated van to Kavala 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 Greece delivery.

    From a mainland-UK collection point to Kavala we ship via ferry from ancona/bari to igoumenitsa/patras, with legal driver rest scheduled under EU tachograph rules. Typical door-to-door around 7 days. No hub, no reload, no shared trailer — the same driver you meet at pickup delivers in Kavala.
