Your FTL-transport
in 5 steps
1. You place your booking with us
Our team supports you when you want to create a booking. You can place your booking with us by email, via our customer portal or via an electronic interface, where your system and our system are connected.
2. Do you also want to use our Customs Services?
A2B-online is also pleased to assist you with its Customs Services, including handling export declarations, import declarations, and various other procedures required to smoothly transport your cargo from A to B. During the booking process, you can indicate whether you would like to utilize our Customs Services.
3. A2B-online arrives to collect your cargo
After the booking has been processed, we arrive at the agreed date and time at the loading address. In many cases, loading can already take place on the day following the booking. The loading of the trailer is handled at the loading address, and therefore, they are responsible for it.
4. A2B-online transports your cargo from collection to delivery point
From loading to unloading, A2B-online takes care of your cargo. Our driver is responsible for ensuring that the trailer with your cargo is properly secured for seaworthiness (known as “cargo securing”). After the unmanned transport by sea, the trailer is transported to the unloading address using a truck from A2B-online Transport Ltd.
5. A2B-online arrives to deliver your cargo
On the agreed day and at the agreed time/time slot, A2B-online arrives at the unloading address. You are responsible for unloading your cargo, and you are also responsible for this process. Once the cargo has been unloaded, you will receive our invoice.
