Preparation and pick-up of the shipment
The shipment must be supplied with a shipping label. If a shipment is going to a destination which requires customs clearance (countries outside the EU), it is important that the information on the pro forma invoice is filled out correctly.
When the shipment is picked up, you must enclose an End of Day list, which you can print out from your Shipmondo account.
The pick-up can be booked electronically on your Shipmondo account and it is the carrier who controls when the pick-up can happen. Contact the carrier through their website to get more information regarding the options for pick-up.
It is important that the shipment should be ready for pick-up when DHL Freight comes to collect it.
Packaging requirements
The contents must be wrapped appropriately, so that the package can be loaded together with other parcels, and must be able to withstand road transport in tarpaulin-covered trucks. Pallets and groupage must be able to withstand handling on the truck.
It is the sender's responsibility that a shipment is wrapped in a way that ensures that the contents are protected and, at the same time, prevents that the shipment from causing damage to other shipments, DHL Freight or third parties.
