How the E.L.V.I.S. Part Load System Enhances Efficient Groupage Imports from Germany

Introduction

 

Importing goods from Germany can be challenging when dealing with groupage shipments. Unpredictable costs, long consolidation waiting times, and uncertain delivery deadlines can make business planning difficult. With the support of the E.L.V.I.S. Part Load System, TKA Logistics offers a solution that brings stability, security, and predictability to daily transport operations.

 

What is the E.L.V.I.S. Part Load System and How Does It Work?

 

The E.L.V.I.S. Part Load System is a high-performance network for transporting partial loads across Germany and Europe. It enables efficient handling of shipments ranging from 1 to 17 pallet spaces, including bulky and sensitive goods. The central hub in Knüllwald, Germany, ensures safe and fast handling of partial loads, including heavy and oversized cargo.

Additionally, the E.L.V.I.S. Part Load System is connected to other European countries, enabling effective consolidation and distribution of goods not only from Germany but also from other key European markets.

The transit time from Germany to Serbia takes a total of 4-7 business days and consists of the following phases:


• Collection of goods across Germany takes between 1 and 2 business days.


• Transit time from the hub in Germany to the hub in Dobanovci is 2 business days.


• Delivery to the final recipient is completed within 1 to 3 business days after the import customs clearance, depending on the recipient’s geographical location.
