Freight Transportation
The transport division of SW Trans GmbH is backed by 18 years of professional experience in international freight transport. Over these years, we have grown from our first trips to a well-oiled logistics system with our own fleet and a pool of regular customers.
We carry general cargo, equipment, and consolidated shipments throughout Germany and the EU. Our geography is unrestricted. Volume ranges from a single pallet to a full 24-ton load. Our own, non-leased fleet gives us full control over the technical condition of our vehicles and the availability of transport for your task at any time.
Over the past three years, we have built a network of over 50 regular routes and gained the trust of dozens of clients who return to us trip after trip. Insurance coverage up to €1,500,000, logistics specialists available 24/7, and multi-stage control along the entire route — this is what we mean by "responsible for every kilometer."

Types of Freight Transportation
We tailor the transport solution to your cargo, not the other way around.
We tailor the transport solution to your cargo, not the other way around.
By Cargo Type
- We transport packaged goods: boxes, pallets, crates, bags, barrels, and construction materials. This is the core of our business — from one pallet to a full truckload. Cargo is placed in a standard curtain-sided semi-trailer, securely strapped, and delivered without damage.
- Machines, production lines, compressors, generators, transformers, and other equipment requiring special handling for loading, securing, and transport. We use semi-trailers with reinforced floors and extra lashing points. We can also arrange loading/unloading assistance at both origin and destination.
- The optimal solution when you need to ship a small volume and paying for a full truck isn't cost-effective. We consolidate several smaller shipments from different clients heading in the same direction and deliver each one precisely to its recipient. You only pay for the space you actually use. We work with shipments starting from one pallet.
- We transport goods classified as dangerous, provided the client has the full package of permits. Our drivers hold valid ADR certifications, and our vehicles are equipped according to the requirements of the specific hazard class. The route is planned considering restrictions for vehicles carrying dangerous substances.
Food products, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and other goods requiring a specific temperature regime. Our fleet includes refrigerated semi-trailers with a temperature range from -20°C to +20°C. The temperature is monitored throughout the entire journey, and data is recorded and provided to the client upon arrival.
By Transport Type
- A universal solution for most cargo. Volume up to 90 cubic meters, payload up to 24 tons. The tarpaulin protects from weather, and side and rear loading allow for quick loading and unloading operations.
- An insulated semi-trailer with a cooling unit for goods requiring a constant temperature throughout the journey. Temperature range from -20°C to +20°C. Temperature logs are provided to the client.
- A semi-trailer without active cooling but with thermal insulation. Used for goods that require a stable temperature without sharp fluctuations but do not need active heating or cooling.
- A semi-trailer with an increased internal volume — up to 100 cubic meters and a height of up to 3 meters. Optimal for voluminous but light cargo where every cubic meter of space matters.
How We Work:
6 Steps from Request to Unloading
Step 1 — Request
You submit a request by phone, messenger, or the form on our website. Our logistics specialist contacts you within 15 minutes to clarify details: cargo type, weight, dimensions, loading and unloading addresses, and desired dates. At this stage, we also discuss special requirements: temperature regime, dangerous goods, or strict time windows.
Step 2 — Quote and Approval
Within one hour, you receive a commercial offer with a fixed cost for the transport and planned dates. No "from and to" ranges — we give you a concrete figure and timeline. After your confirmation, we book the vehicle and document the agreement.
Step 3 — Vehicle Dispatch
The truck and trailer arrive at the loading point exactly at the agreed time. The driver has all necessary documents: transport contract, cargo insurance policy, and CMR consignment note. The vehicle is clean, technically sound, and ready for loading.
Step 4 — Transportation
The cargo follows the optimal route. You can request the shipment status at any time — our logistics specialist is available and provides current information on the vehicle's location. In case of force majeure (weather, road conditions), we immediately propose an alternative solution and inform the consignee.
Step 5 — Unloading and Closing Documents
The vehicle arrives at the unloading point at the scheduled time. The consignee checks the integrity of the cargo and signs the closing documents. You receive scanned copies of the CMR note with proof of delivery. Original documents are sent to you via a convenient method. The trip is complete — the cargo is delivered.
Step 6 — Feedback and Next Trip
The trip is closed, documents are in hand, and the cargo is with the consignee. But for us, the work doesn't end there. We gather feedback and note your preferences for the future. The result: you save time searching for a carrier for your next shipment, because you already know there is one you can rely on. A satisfied client and repeat business — that is the only KPI we recognize.
Frequently Asked Questions
We also accept urgent requests with same-day loading — if a vehicle is available. However, to guarantee vehicle availability, we recommend booking 2–3 days in advance. Regular routes for regular clients are scheduled weeks and months ahead.
