Question 1

How do I find the cheapest way to ship freight in Europe?

Accepted Answer

Use the SCIS Solution Finder to compare freight options. Enter your origin, destination, volume, and goods type, then set cost as your top priority. The tool ranks FTL, LTL, rail intermodal, and other options by estimated cost with real market rates for your specific route.

Question 2

What is the difference between FTL and LTL shipping?

Accepted Answer

FTL (Full Truckload) means you book the entire truck for your shipment — ideal for large volumes (15+ pallets). LTL (Less than Truckload) means your goods share truck space with other shipments — cheaper for smaller volumes but with longer transit times due to hub stops.

Question 3

How much does it cost to ship a full truckload in Europe?

Accepted Answer

EU FTL rates average around 1.20 EUR/km. A typical 500km route (e.g. Munich to Milan) costs roughly EUR 500-700 per shipment. Rates vary by season, fuel surcharges, and corridor demand. The SCIS Solution Finder provides route-specific estimates using current market data.
