Relaxation in Europe: Update of the current loading restrictions

DACHSER resumes general cargo line to Ukraine

DACHSER is re-evaluating the current developments in the Ukraine conflict day by day. This leads to the situation that the complete takeover and loading stop for all goods shipments to Ukraine, which was taken in February 2022, can be partially reversed.

The safety of all drivers and employees remains a top priority for DACHSER. In areas not directly affected by the war, DACHSER is starting a regular general cargo line to Western Ukraine from the Strykov platform in Poland. The corresponding handling of shipments on site and distribution in Ukraine is carried out by the partner company in Lviv.
Transports to the regions in the east, north and south of Ukraine directly affected by the war are still not possible.

As delivery zones can change very quickly due to developments in the war, DACHSER will continue to monitor and assess the situation on an ongoing basis and keep customers informed of further developments accordingly. The local contacts in the DACHSER branches will be available to answer any questions.

With DACHSER on the southern route: full truck loads from China to Europe

The war in Ukraine has also had an impact on intercontinental land transport between Asia and Europe. Journeys through Russia and Belarus as well as through the conflict zone itself have become impossible. However, DACHSER Cargoplus can continue to offer the service reliably via an alternative southern route.

Especially in the current uncertain economic situation, the main focus is on safety and ability to deliver. The damage-free transport of goods is essential for this and requires packaging that is suitable for stress and transport. In the following, we would like to give an overview of damage prevention through packaging.

Brexit checklist - what should you watch out for?

What should DACHSER customers pay attention to in the case of a hard Brexit?
Delays when it comes to border crossing would be a major challenge in the case of a hard Brexit - the other would be the new bureaucratic burden of goods traffic with Great Britain. First and foremost, longer waiting times through border controls and customs clearance of all goods should be expected under WTO rules. For companies that send shipments to and from the UK, we have summarized them in our Brexit checklist that can be downloaded below:
