In order to transport a tree safely and without damage, expert knowledge of haulage, volumes and distances is required, but so is expert knowledge of trees. The transport of very large trees is a speciality. For instance, one has to take into account the fragility of branches. Plus the width that a tree is going to have when it’s tied up for transport must be estimated beforehand because 50 cm can make a lot of difference.
The logistics department van Van den Berk is responsible for the careful professional loading and delivery of trees and shrubs. During the delivery season, 25 to 30 trailers leave the company every day to deliver trees throughout Europe.

Export

We deliver to 35 countries in Europe. That means a lots of different regulations and documents. We have specialised logistic planners for each country. They take care of the transport permits and know country’s practices and regulations. Our logistic department work with a number of preferred carriers but of course customers can organise their own transport. In that case too, the logistics department assures correct processing, the necessary documents and careful loading of the trees.

Calling for an order

Digging up, tying up, loading and transport require careful planning, especially when large trees are involved. In order to guarantee smooth delivery, customers are requested to call for orders at the logistics department approximately two weeks before delivery. Partial deliveries can also be made, if requested in advance.
