How to Request a Personalised Quote for Your Shipments

Requesting a personalised quote is the first step in planning an efficient, cost-effective shipment. At Logistics Express, we understand that every customer and every shipment is unique, which is why we offer tailored quotes that let you know exactly what costs and options are available. This guide explains how to request a personalised quote and details the factors that may influence the price.

Step 1: Gather the Basic Information

To provide an accurate quote, we need to know some details about your shipment. Gather the following information to complete the request quickly:

• Type of goods: Specify whether it is general, hazardous, perishable cargo, etc.
• Dimensions and weight: Measurements and weight are essential for calculating costs, especially for groupage and full-load services.
• Origin and destination: Indicate the collection point and the final destination of the shipment.
• Urgency: Let us know if you need express or standard delivery.

Step 2: Select the Type of Service

At Logistics Express we offer various services, from express shipments and groupage to full-load transport and customs management. When selecting a service type, make sure you choose the one that best suits your needs:

• Express shipments: Ideal for urgent goods.
• Groupage: Convenient for reducing costs on smaller shipments.
• Full loads: For customers with exclusive transport requirements.
• Customs and documentation: Advice and management of documents required for export and import.

Step 3: Complete the Quote Request Form

Access our online quote form at Logistics Express or contact our customer service team directly. Make sure you include all the information gathered above to speed up the process.

Step 4: Review the Quote

Once you submit the request, our commercial team will analyse the details and send you a personalised quote. This will include:

• Detailed costs: A breakdown of rates by service type.
• Additional options: Services such as insurance or storage if required.
• Conditions and estimated times: Delivery lead times, prices, and special conditions.

Factors That May Affect the Price

Several elements can influence the final quote, including:

• Volume and weight of the goods: In many cases, the price is calculated based on the space occupied or the weight.
• Distance and accessibility: Shipments to more remote or difficult-to-access destinations may incur additional costs.
• Special services: Shipments of hazardous, refrigerated, or specially-requirements goods typically carry higher rates.
• Documentation and customs management: For exports and imports, duties and the cost of customs management must be taken into account.

Practical Example of a Quote Request

To illustrate the process, imagine you want to ship a load of perishable goods from Málaga to Melilla. In this case:

1. You would detail the nature of the shipment (perishable goods).
2. You would specify the total dimensions and weight.
3. You would include the final destination and temperature requirements.
4. You would indicate any urgency in the delivery and whether you need customs management in Melilla.

Benefits of Obtaining a Personalised Quote

Opting for a personalised quote has several benefits, including:

• Accurate costs: You only pay for the services you need.
• Process clarity: You know the costs and lead times before making the shipment.
• Tailored to your needs: We adapt to the specific requirements of your business.
