Pick-up of large packages, boxes and pallets

A vehicle with a lifting platform or tail lift is essential for picking up large volume or heavy products. There is no forklift available on site to assist in the loading process. Please inform your logistics service provider of the need for such a vehicle.

Special requirements for shipping outside of Europe

If your product is being shipped to a country outside the European Union (EU), please send us all relevant documents for customs clearance. In particular, a (proforma) invoice stating the value and contents of your shipment will be required. Additional documentation may be required depending on the specific characteristics of your product. If the value is 1000 Euro or more, please note that a formal customs declaration with a Master Reference Number (MRN) is required.
