Multiply pallet length (m) Γ pallet width (m) Γ· 2.4. One EUR pallet = 1.2 Γ 0.8 Γ· 2.4 = 0.4 LDM. For non-standard cargo, use: length Γ width Γ quantity Γ· 2.4 Γ· stack factor.
Multiply total LDM by the rate per LDM for your destination. Barcelona β Germany: 2.0 LDM Γ β¬165/LDM = β¬330.
Verify total shipment weight does not exceed the LDM weight allowance (~1,750 kg/LDM for standard cargo) or 24,000 kg total payload. Weight surcharges apply above these limits.
Stackable pallets allow double-decking, which can reduce LDM by up to 50%. Indicate if your goods are stackable to get lower rates on compatible corridors.
Shipping one EUR pallet (120Γ80 cm, 0.4 LDM) from Spain to Germany costs approximately β¬56ββ¬78 at standard LTL groupage rates of β¬140ββ¬195 per LDM. Transit is 3β4 days. Weight up to 750 kg per EUR pallet is included.
A standard 13.6 m curtainsider trailer can hold 33 EUR pallets (120Γ80 cm) in a single-deck configuration, or up to 66 EUR pallets if the goods can be double-stacked. In LDM terms, 13.6 LDM = approximately 33 EUR pallets. The payload limit is typically 24,000 kg.
LDM (Loading Meter) is the unit of trailer floor space occupied by your cargo. One EUR pallet (120Γ80 cm) = 0.4 LDM; one industrial pallet (120Γ100 cm) = 0.5 LDM. Freight rates are typically quoted per LDM for LTL shipments because it measures the trailer space consumed, regardless of the number of pallets.
Yes β pallet freight in European road transport is typically LTL (Less than Truckload) or groupage freight. You pay only for the loading meters your pallets occupy in a shared trailer. For 1β3 pallets, expect to pay for 0.4β1.5 LDM; for 10β15 pallets, around 4β7 LDM.
