Questions and answers about tyre shipping

How should tyres be packaged?

Tyres should either be packed in sturdy cardboard boxes or with special tear-resistant film. This prevents damage during transport and ensures smooth handling. Detailed packaging guidelines and permitted packaging materials are available in the info sheet. Deviations from these conditions may result in additional charges. 

What additional services are available for companies?

We offer a range of additional services to make shipping more efficient for you as business customers:

  • Higher insurance for valuable shipments
  • Customised solutions for seasonal peaks and peak times

You, as a company, can request customised services based on their shipping needs.

How is dispatch organised when the season changes?

We handle seasonal peaks on your behalf. To ensure smooth and reliable processing, early coordination regarding volume planning is especially important.
