Cargo Cost from UK to Austria
Cargo costs to Austria will depend on the size and weight of the consignment and the choice between air cargo and road cargo. For small shipments which do not fill a whole pallet aircargo will often work out cheaper – particularly if sending cargo on a door-to-door basis. For larger shipments, road cargo is better value at the expense of a longer transit time. For very large shipments a dedicated vehicle may prove best value.
To enable us to accurately calculate your cargo cost to Austria, we will need to know the length, width, height and weight of each item being shipped. If goods are being sent on pallets or in cases then the measurements of these should be supplied.
If you do not have exact dimensions and weights then we can provide an estimated cargo cost to Austria which we will adjust when exact specifications are known.
