What the Dutch lane measures
Our system holds 132 recorded shipments on the Netherlands–Türkiye lane. Average transit time is 7.1 days, fastest record 2 days, longest 18 days.
The distance is markedly greater than from Italy, yet the average is only about one day longer. In part-load freight the deciding factors are consolidation and customs, not kilometres.
The planning range
The 2-day record exists, but treating it as typical would be a mistake. Plan against 6 to 9 days. We publish the extremes because your scheduling should rest on the real spread, not on an optimistic average.

Frequently asked questions
How long does road freight from the Netherlands to Türkiye take?
The average is 7.1 days. The fastest recorded shipment took 2 days, the longest 18 days. A realistic planning range is 6 to 9 days.
Why is the northern European lane quick for the distance?
Road infrastructure and crossing points on the northern European route are consistent. The 2-day record reflects a consignment that caught a direct departure at the right moment — useful to know, but not a value to plan against.
Can you handle customs clearance as well?
Yes. Our group includes General Gümrük Müş. Ltd. for customs brokerage and Servis Sigorta Ar. Hiz. Ltd. as insurance agency.
Should I choose groupage or a full load?
If your pallets do not fill a trailer, groupage lowers your cost. High-level groupage road freight is our core business.

means the fastest recorded value on that lane is not plausible as a transit time (a shipment booked out on the day it was collected). We leave it out rather than publish a figure we cannot stand behind. The average and the slowest value are unaffected.
