Transparent Pricing and Freight Savings in Belgium Commercial Shipping
With the growth of trade volume between Turkey and Belgium, optimization of logistics costs has started to become vital for exporters. As Han Bros Cargo, we adopt the principle of 'maximum efficiency, minimum cost' in our commercial shipping prices offered on the Belgium route. We produce special freight solutions for every size of business, from a single pallet you will send to Belgium (Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, etc.) to your weekly full truck shipments.
Core Dynamics Determining Commercial Freight Prices
In Belgium commercial shipping, these items shape your costs:
- Partial (LTL) Loading: If your item does not fill a truck, you pay on the basis of the number of pallets or ldm (loading meter) it occupies in the truck. This is the most economical method for small and medium-sized shipments.
- Full (FTL) Vehicle: When you rent the entire 13.60-meter-long truck, your cost per unit load decreases and you gain a direct delivery advantage.
- Product Class (ADR and Frigo): In products requiring flammable material or heat-controlled (cold chain) transport, pricing differs due to the use of special equipment.
- Destination and Port Fees: Shipments to logistics hubs such as Antwerp port are more advantageous on a freight basis compared to more distant towns in Belgium.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are approximately the Belgium commercial shipping prices?
Although prices change according to current fuel and customs costs, single pallet shipments start from 150-250€, while full truck freights vary between 3,500€ and 5,500€ according to market conditions. No, the freight price only covers the shipping service. Customs duties and VAT payments are paid by the importer according to the HS code of the goods and Belgium laws (excluding our DDP service). In this unit calculated according to the length of the truck, the area your item occupies on the base is associated with the 2.40-meter width of the truck. Our expert representative will support you regarding the calculation. All our shipments are protected by international CMR insurance and this fee is included in the freight price. When extra 'All-Risk' insurance is requested, a premium at a per-thousand rate over the goods value is applied. If you don't have time constraints, partial road shipping is the most budget-friendly method. Sending containers to Antwerp port via sea can also provide advantages in high-volume loads.Are customs duties inside the freight price?
