General cargo transport solutions for you

General cargo includes smaller shipment volumes that are collected by small trucks or vans. After arriving at a logistics hub, Rhenus consolidates several shipments in bigger trucks before transporting them to destinations in scheduled departures and arranges last-mile delivery to the point of use.

Rhenus is your partner for general cargo

We deliver general cargo transports using our German and European logistics network. With Rhenus locations across Germany and many countries as well as local partners, we provide door-to-door deliveries with optimum transit times. Sharing a truck with other customers also means sharing the costs – that is why general cargo transport is often the most cost-efficient option for smaller shipments.

Reliable cargo deliveries with our general cargo services

For your general cargo freight, we offer various services for national and international transport. The logistics services are based on efficient road transport concepts that ensure Germany- and Europe-wide general cargo transports with direct and regular departures and reliable delivery times – also for hazardous goods or temperature-controlled shipments. With our own national branches and our nationwide network, we offer you a high departure frequency as well as comprehensive procurement logistics models. You have a transparent overview of the status of your shipment via end-to-end shipment tracking including Track & Trace.
