While we do service to all Door destinations in Bulgaria, the main depots are located in Sofia, Varna and Burgas.

Upon quotation request, shipper may receive different types of quotes which makes comparison difficult.

Some agencies only provide all in prices with no breakdown whatsoever except for a list of services covered, these types of quotations can often be misleading as they do not transparently show a breakdown of costs or exactly how much is being paid for which service listed.

We provide only genuine, transparent quotations, when comparing competitive quotations, it is very important to carefully check the competitors quote to whether or not additional charges will be due on cargo arrival.

Generally as long as there is space to place the container at your premise (such as on the driveway) we can leave it with you for 3-5 days.
