Shipping The employee in need of transport contacts the transport company to plan pick up of the shipment. It is IMPORTANT to provide your own (or a colleague's) telephone number so that the carrier has a contact person on arrival. Otherwise there is a risk that he will leave without the shipment. If you can not be present at the agreed time, you must make an appointment with one of your closest colleagues. Give the person a clear message about the approximate time of collection. If you need to ship packages of 0-50 kg with courier, please see the section on courier transport. It is possible to book shipments that do not need to go with courier with Danske Fragtmænd via their website: webfragt.fragt.dk Booking of shipment must always be done by the payer, both for export and import. |
Per Trinhammer has made a letter with contact information of various freight companies as well as a guide on how to prepare a carnet. |
Receiving goods When expecting arrival of a larger shipment, it is important to provide the carrier with a phone number. If someone else is to receive the shipment, that person also needs to be told, what to do with the goods; where to place them and how to handle them. |
Please note that goods may be placed in the marked area in building 1674 next to the goods delivery door ("Vareindlevering"). They must be removed from the area on the same day to give room for the next delivery. |
