Royal Brinkman offers every type of transport that you prefer, all over the world. Below are the most used delivery options.

• Truck delivery
• Arranging your own transport
• Brinkman Australia Pty Ltd

This option is most used for small packages or packages that are required to be delivered fast. Delivery times vary between 1-7 working days depending on your location. We can offer delivery with your requested courier, or we can chose the best option for you. We work with express courier services as TNT and DHL. With a courier delivery the package can be delivered at place (DAP) or delivered with duties paid(DDP). If you want the package to be sent with duties paid, we can also arrange the import for you. Offering imported packages is not available for all countries. We will send you a track and trace link when the package is shipped from our facility so you can keep track of the package when it’s being shipped. Together with the package a pro forma invoice will be sent in order to arrange the import. This pro forma invoice will be sent to your email as well.

This option is most used for bigger packages that have to be delivered with high priority. The delivery times vary between 3-7 days depending on your location. The package can be delivered at place (DAP), delivered with duties paid (DDP) or delivered towards an airport of choice (CIP). If Royal Brinkman only takes care of the delivery until the airport, you will have to arrange the inland transport to your greenhouse yourself. With the package a packing list will be shipped. By email you will receive a master airway bill, pro forma invoice and packing list. If other documents are needed we will send these as well. Original, hard copy, documents can be sent if required.

Container delivery is a best value for money when we are shipping you big volumes over sea. The delivery times are longer but cheaper and vary between 2 to 7 weeks depending on your location. There are two different types of container shipments. Full container loads (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL). For full containers 20ft and 40ft container are most common. A 20ft container is 5,90 meter and will fit approximately 10 standard size pallets. A 40ft container is 12,00 meter and will fit approximately 21 standard pallets. 

If your materials only consist of a few pallets, it could be cheaper to book a LCL shipment. Your materials will be loaded in a shared container. We will of course help you with these choices and give you our advice. We can ship the containers worldwide. The shipments can be delivered at place (DAP), delivered with duties paid (DDP) or delivered towards a harbor of choice (CIF). For importing the goods we will send you the Bill of Lading, pro forma invoice and packing list. If other documents are needed we will send these as well. Original, hard copy, documents can be sent if required.

For most European countries truck delivery is the best solution when we are shipping you volumes over land. The delivery times vary between 1-10 days depending on your location. Royal Brinkman works together with several transport companies which send trucks all over Europe. Due to shorter distances than container shipments, trucks mostly have LCL shipments and are shipped in combined transport. Full truckloads usually contain about 24 pallets (120x80cm).

It is also possible to arrange your own transport. You can pick up the goods at our warehouse and we will load the goods for you. Depending on the volume, we also have the possibility to deliver pallets at other companies in the Netherlands.  We have our own daily transport all around the Netherlands. So in case you arrange a container, leaving from a different company then Royal Brinkman, we can send the products there (usually free of charge).

The transport costs will be charged separately or included in your offer. This will at all times be specified on the quotation or by your account manager.

The Brinkman Australia stock contains a little over 1 000 products, of the 30 000 products Royal Brinkman sells in Europe. If we don’t have them in stock we can bring them in by TNT (quick but expensive) or in one of our containers (takes 2 – 3 months). We deliver to horticultural businesses in Australia from our warehouse in Victoria.
