    Can Quicargo be authorised to handle the necessary paperwork?

    Yes, indeed. Your company can authorize a representative to file the required paperwork. However, Quicargo itself is not allowed to handle these documents for companies trading between the UK and the EU as this is only allowed for businesses which are established in the UK.

    Quicargo therefore works together with a third party in the United Kingdom, which is taking over the paperwork as an indirect representative – making matters easier for your company.

    Prepare your road freight for transportation to the United Kingdom

    It is very important to make sure your cargo is transportation-proof before sending your pallets to the UK or The Netherlands. Only when your pallets are prepared in the correct way, it allows carriers to deliver your shipment quickly and, most importantly, safely. After all, damaged road freight would be a big waste!
