Pallet groupage (LTL) and full truckload (FTL) road freight from Portugal across the EU and Iberian Peninsula.
Road transport is the backbone of European logistics. Cargosender connects Portuguese shippers to a network of pallet groupage operators and full truckload carriers for deliveries throughout Portugal, Spain, and the wider EU. LTL (part-load) services depart daily from Lisbon and Porto to Spain, France, Germany, and Benelux.
Daily groupage departures from Lisbon and Porto to Spain, France, Germany, Netherlands, and Belgium.
Pay only for the pallet space you use. LTL groupage is cost-effective for 1–10 pallets.
Full truckload (up to 24 tonnes) gives dedicated truck, faster transit, and lower risk of handling damage.
All road freight includes a CMR transport document and carrier tracking — visible from collection to delivery.
