Packaging 

Ensuring your shipment is properly packaged is essential for safe, reliable delivery. Businesses can choose to pack and label their shipment themselves, or ask DSV to handle it with professional packaging services.

For best results:

• Use a strong, durable cardboard box large enough to accommodate sufficient cushioning to protect your items.
• Ensure the contents are secure, preventing movement or damage during transit.
• Clearly label your shipment with all necessary delivery and contact details.

The DSV XPress range of packing materials

You can use DSV XPress envelopes and boxes to pack your shipment. They come in different shapes and materials and can be ordered with labels for use with DSV XPress shipments.

Calculation of weight and size

The calculation of price is based on volume weight if it exceeds the actual weight of your shipment.

Calculation of volume weight: Multiply length, width and height of a package (in centimetres). Add the volumes of several individual parcels of a shipment to get the total volume of the shipment. To calculate the volume weight (in kilograms), divide the volume of the shipment by the factor tendered in our quote. Any intermediate results must be rounded up.
