Value added services

Storage, packaging, labeling, quality controlling or order picking – to name just a few services – can be arranged around the forwarding and transportation services respectively. Since the divisions Land Transport and Contract Logistics/SCM both operate under the roof of DB Schenker, close cooperation is ensured to offer transport-related logistics services to the customers’ satisfaction.

Customs clearance

Customs regulations are a major impediment to the flow of goods between foreign markets (e.g. mainly between EU and non-EU countries). DB Schenker has the knowledge and know-how of experienced specialists in the international transportation of goods and thus ensures rapid and efficient border crossing. Our customs offices are tightly connected to the relevant customs authorities.

Furthermore, in most European countries DB Schenker Logistics acts as Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) even with F status which combines both security and customs standards.

Cargo insurance

Comprehensive insurance is already included in our forwarding products based on local legislation as well as the applicable general terms and conditions. Additional insurance can be provided upon request.
