What leaves Karlovy Vary is mostly things that must not break: mineral water, glass and porcelain. And Bavaria is closer from here than Moravia.

Fragile goods from spa country

The Karlovy Vary region is known for glass, porcelain and mineral water. The Moser glassworks, the Thun porcelain factory in Nová Role, Mattoni in Kyselka and the Jan Becher distillery ship goods that need careful securing. We fix and separate the pallets and arrange full-value insurance on request.

Beverages: weight before volume

Pallets of mineral water or beer are heavy — the truck reaches its weight limit before it is full. For beverages we therefore plan the load by weight and axle load, not by the number of pallets.

Via Cheb to Bavaria

Cheb is about 45 km away, and the Pomezí nad Ohří–Schirnding crossing connects to the German A93. Nuremberg is about 200 km, Munich around 330 km. The D6 motorway leads to Prague (about 130 km).

Pallet transport from Karlovy Vary

We combine pallets from Karlovy Vary, Sokolov and Cheb into groupage runs along the D6 to Prague. To Bavaria they go direct via Cheb. Fragile goods travel without unnecessary transhipment.
