What do you gain by working directly with „Kauno logistikos agentūra“?

When you have a steady, reliable partner, you do not have to search for a carrier every time, compare offers or check whether a particular partner is even suitable for your cargo.

A steady, reliable partner

Freight transport is organised as a single, clearly defined process. From the first request to delivery, you work with the same company, which knows the context and specifics of your previous shipments. This is especially relevant when cargo is shipped regularly but at varying frequency and to different destinations. A long-term partner already knows these differences in advance rather than having to work them out anew with each new contact.

Faster decisions on the road

It also means faster decision-making. If the plan needs to change while the shipment is already under way – because the deadline has shifted or a new requirement has come up – an agreement can be reached quickly. Negotiations and the contract were with a single party from the outset, not with several different ones. You also save the time you would otherwise spend searching the market for each new request, comparing offers and vetting a new partner.

Clear price structure

The price you see in the quote reflects the transport itself and the coordination of the whole process – from the first conversation to final delivery to the consignee. That is why, before giving a figure, we always clarify the specific situation rather than relying on a general, one-size-fits-all rate.

Our experience

Since 2001

Since 2001 – organising freight transport for more than two decades.

28 international destinations

28 international destinations – from the nearest neighbouring countries to more distant
European countries.

Most of our regular clients have been working with us for years. Knowing the rhythm of their business and the specifics of their goods, we can plan more precisely than would be possible from a one-off request. Freight transport, even on the same route, does not always become an identical process – we assess every order individually, with the context in mind. For new clients, this means that once we start working together, the process only gets simpler over time.

05

Part-load transport

if your cargo does not need a whole vehicle, here you will find how part-load (LTL) transport differs from a full truckload and when it is more cost-effective.

06

Dangerous goods transport

07

Cargo insurance and Customs formalities

separate pages for those who need more in-depth information on these specific topics, not just a brief mention among other services.

This page provides a general overview and answers to frequently asked questions, while more detailed information can be found on the pages mentioned. If you are not sure which page will answer your question, simply get in touch – we will assess the situation, answer the key questions and direct you to the right service page.

Where do we ship?

Freight transport in Lithuania covers the whole country – from the major cities to regional factories and warehouses. On international routes we most often ship to Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, England, Turkey, Italy and Ukraine, serving 28 destinations in total.

Domestic and international transport have different priorities.

Domestic routes

On domestic routes, flexibility and precise delivery times matter most, so cargo can often be collected and delivered within a few days.

International routes

On international routes, documents and border crossings require more attention, so planning starts earlier, and the timeframe depends on the specific destination and its current customs requirements.

If your destination is not listed here, simply contact us. We can also organise transport to other European countries after discussing the specifics of the route in advance. On the most popular routes, trips run frequently, so transport can usually be found faster. Routes we serve less often may take more time to plan.

For each of the more popular destinations, we have also prepared more detailed information on a separate page – there you will find typical transit times, the documents required and the seasonal fluctuations that may affect timing. If you are planning several different shipments at once, for example one domestic route in Lithuania and another abroad, you can discuss them in a single request, and we will plan both routes separately.

Freight transport: price

The exact amount depends on the distance, the cargo’s weight and type, and the timeframe, so we do not offer a fixed price list online. We prepare an individual quote for every order. In practice, freight transport prices can differ even over similar distances, depending on demand on the route and the season. We explain in more detail what shapes the cost of transport on our Transport Services page.

An individual quote means you pay only for what your cargo actually needs.

We deliberately do not offer a fixed price list. Two consignments of similar weight can cost different amounts: one may need special securing and the other not, or one may have a flexible deadline while the other’s is strictly fixed. A general price list would not reflect these differences – for some clients it would be inaccurate, and for others artificially inflated to cover rarer, more complex cases. An individual quote means you pay only for what your cargo actually needs.

Freight transport rarely follows an identical scenario twice in a row. Even for regular clients on the same route, the price can fluctuate depending on the season or the availability of transport on the market in a given week. That is why we assess every new request afresh, taking the specific moment into account, rather than applying a once-calculated rate to all future orders.

Whether it is a one-off shipment or just the first step towards long-term cooperation, your answer will come from the person who will coordinate your shipment and knows the specific situation. If you are not sure which page of the website your question belongs to, simply write to us here: freight transport rarely fits one strict category, so it is usually easier to just describe your situation – we will point you in the right direction or answer straight away.

FAQ

Who can transport cargo?

Cargo on domestic and international routes can be carried, or its transport organised, by a company that holds valid carrier’s liability insurance and has a network of carriers that allows vehicles to be matched to the cargo’s size, weight, timeframe and destination. UAB „Kauno logistikos agentūra“ holds such insurance and has been organising full truckload, part load and special-requirement freight transport in Lithuania and abroad since 2001.

How do I choose a freight transport company?

The most practical place to start is with a few specific checks. Confirm that the company holds valid carrier’s liability insurance and assess whether the carrier’s liability limits are sufficient for the value of your goods – if necessary, the cargo can be insured additionally. It is also worth reading other clients’ reviews: they often show best how a company behaves when problems arise, not just when everything runs smoothly. Finally, note how quickly and specifically the company responds to your request – this often indicates how the transport itself will be organised.

What information do I need to provide to get an accurate quote?

To calculate an accurate price, it helps to state from the outset the loading and unloading locations, the cargo’s weight, dimensions and type, and the approximate date when the cargo will be ready for transport. The more precise the information, the faster and more accurately we can reply. If you do not yet know some details exactly, we can clarify them before the order is confirmed.

Can I book freight transport online?

Yes, you can submit a request online by filling in the form on the website or by sending us an email. During working hours we usually reply to requests within 1–2 working hours – with a quote or follow-up questions. If you prefer, you can also call us during working hours.

Which countries do you serve on international routes?

We most often organise freight transport to and from the United Kingdom (England), Germany, Poland, Turkey, Ukraine, Italy and the Netherlands. In total, we serve at least 28 destination countries. If you are interested in another destination, get in touch and we will assess the specific route. You can find more about our main destinations on the International Freight Transport page.

How is the price of freight transport calculated?

The price depends not only on the weight of the cargo but also on how much space it takes up in the vehicle. For part loads, volumetric or chargeable weight, pallet spaces or loading metres (LDM) may be taken into account – LDM shows how much of the trailer length the cargo occupies. The final price is also affected by the route, current vehicle availability, the required timeframe and any additional cargo requirements. That is why we do not publish a fixed price list – every shipment is assessed individually.

Who is responsible for the cargo if it is damaged in transit?

The carrier’s liability for loss of or damage to cargo is determined under the CMR Convention and the circumstances of the specific incident. The CMR Convention provides for cases in which the carrier is not liable – for example, when damage results from inadequate packaging or the inherent nature of the goods. Carrier’s liability insurance is not cargo insurance – liability under the CMR is usually limited and may not cover the full value of the goods. If you need broader protection, additional cargo insurance can be arranged separately, depending on the specific consignment and the insurer’s terms.

Do I need to sign a long-term contract to start working with you?

No. You can start with a single shipment without any long-term commitment. If the cooperation works well and the number of shipments grows, we can discuss terms for more regular cooperation, but that always remains your choice – not an assumption or a condition for receiving a quote.

How can I check that UAB „Kauno logistikos agentūra“ is reliable?

UAB „Kauno logistikos agentūra“ has been operating since 2001. The company’s registration details can be checked at the Centre of Registers, and client reviews on rekvizitai.lt and our Reviews page. You will find more about the company, its details and independent ratings on the “About us” page.

What happens if the cargo is delayed or delivery conditions change en route?

We inform you of any change as soon as we receive reliable information, not when the delivery time is approaching. Together with you, we assess whether the cause (for example, weather, traffic or border queues) allows the deadline to be adjusted or whether an alternative is needed, so that the impact on your business processes is kept to a minimum.
