Terraexpress provides a full range of road freight services across Europe:

• Full Truck Load (FTL) — the shipment occupies the entire vehicle; fast, direct delivery with no additional handling.
• Less than Truck Load (LTL) — smaller consignments from multiple customers consolidated in one vehicle; cost-effective for smaller shipments.
• Temperature-controlled cargo — transport requiring a specific temperature regime (e.g., food, pharma).
• Out-of-gauge / oversized cargo — solutions for loads exceeding standard dimensions or weight.

Our core specialization is the Baltic–Southern Europe corridor with regular, reliable services:

• Latvia ↔ Italy
• Latvia ↔ Spain
• Latvia ↔ Portugal

We also provide regular transports to/from Germany, France, Poland and other EU countries.

The price depends on:

• Route: loading and unloading locations (e.g., Riga ↔ Madrid).
• Cargo parameters: weight (kg) and dimensions (L × W × H in cm; volume in m³).
• Cargo type: whether the cargo is stackable or not.
• Additional services: express delivery, temperature control, insurance, etc.

Transit time depends on the destination and cargo type (FTL/LTL):

• FTL: typically 3–5 business days.
• LTL / groupage:
  • Latvia ↔ Northern Italy: approx. 5–7 business days.
  • Latvia ↔ Spain (central/north): approx. 7–9 business days.
  • Latvia ↔ Portugal / Southern Spain: approx. 8–12 business days.

Yes, we specialize in transporting personal belongings:

• Personal effects within Europe (LV ↔ Southern Europe): smaller shipments (boxes, furniture) included in the LTL service.
• Full-service removals: whole household moves with packing and unpacking options.

It is crucial to ensure proper packing and a precise list of all items.

To ensure safe transport, please follow:

• Packing: sturdy, standard-size cardboard boxes; wrap furniture and protect corners.
• Labeling: each box clearly labeled with contents and destination address.
• Prohibited items: hazardous substances, explosives, weapons and perishable foods are not allowed.

As a rule for intra-EU movements you need:

• CMR consignment note — the international waybill (contract + cargo details).
• Commercial invoice — cargo value and contents (important for customs/insurance cases).
• Delivery notes / certificates — depending on the cargo (e.g., phytosanitary).

Yes. Under international rules (CMR Convention) your cargo is covered by the standard carrier’s liability insurance. For high-value shipments we recommend Additional Cargo Insurance (All-Risks) covering losses above CMR limits. We will help arrange it.

All Terraexpress transports include real-time GPS tracking. After order confirmation we will provide the current status; with a Tracking ID you can also track it on our website.
