The Market
The UK and Frances’ economies are working well and encouraging competition within the freight industry. Good value pallet delivery to and from France works well because of the tariff free exports within the EU and good road links used by international haulage firms. The most common and cost effective route for UK pallet delivery to France is overland haulage and we can ship freight to France on a Euro pallet, Standard pallets or crates of various sizes.

Anything bigger than this would be classed as oversized or if your goods overhang the pallet (not recommended unless the goods are sturdy) it would also be classed as oversized. If possible it is best to keep the height to a maximum of 220cm as anything taller may not fit through the doors of many standard vehicles. Our oversized pallet quotes are calculated on the exact measurements of your load so you will not pay for more space that you use.
