How much does transport cost?
It is difficult to give exact prices for transport, as it depends on what and how much you need transported and where it will be transported.
It is common practice in the transport industry to calculate volume weight, i.e., to convert package volume to weight/volumetric to determine how much space the shipment takes up. It is calculated using this formula: ((Width x Length x Height)/1000)/3.5.
Groupage is usually an affordable option as you can combine pallets and individual parcels in the same shipment. What is important to note is that there is usually a weight limit on individual packages (normally 1000kg) and what the total shipment can weigh (normally 2.5 tonnes). If the weight is higher than this, it is often sent as groupage.
Submit the form with a description of what you want to transport, and you will receive a quote from a competitive carrier with expertise and experience in the relevant field.
Some examples of transport prices:
Special transport: you can get fixed prices for volume/weight, pick-up/drop-off, and distance/kilometers, but many operate with hourly rates for the various additional services. If you need an escort car, it usually costs from kr. 750 per hour, but you must also include a mileage allowance.
Cargo taxi: From about 200 to 1,000 euros per hour, depending on the size of the vehicle and the number of passengers. Some companies also offer a fixed price for certain routes or distances.
Courier truck: From about 140, – -1.000, – NOK per hour, depending on the size of the vehicle and the number of drivers needed. There may also be additional costs for extra services such as loading/unloading or insurance.
Light truck: from kr. 500, – per hour + from kr. 5,75, – per km.
Heavy Truck: from kr. 600, – per hour + from kr. 6, – per km.
Car transport
- Transport of a passenger car from Oslo to Bergen: from approx. 3.000 NOK
- Transport of a passenger car from Trondheim to Tromsø: from approx. 7.000 NOK
- Transport of a passenger car from Kristiansand to Stavanger: from approx. 2.500 NOK
Transport price per km.
The price per km for transport depends on the type of means of transport used. The price varies whether it is a truck, courier truck/van, refrigerated vehicle or whether it is with or without a lift on the vehicle.
The price also varies depending on the location. If you are shipping within the city centre of a large city, it is cheaper than if you are shipping outside the city limits.
Example of price per km:
Courier car: from kr. 20, – to 50, – NOK per kilometer (depends on distance, whether it is express, loading/unloading, extra driver, etc.)
Some transport companies operate with hourly rate + price per km, in which case the price per km is much lower as the time spent is calculated for itself.
What affects the price of transport?
The price of transport can be affected by several factors, including:
-
Type of transport assignment
The price can vary depending on what is being transported. For example, the transport of dangerous goods or special transports that require special permits and expertise will normally cost more than regular goods transport. -
Transport distance
The longer the distance to be covered, the higher the price will normally be. Transport within a city or region will normally be cheaper than transport between different regions or countries. -
Timing
Time constraints or demands for transport at odd hours, such as evening or weekend transport, can lead to higher prices. -
Volume and weight
The price is also affected by the size and weight of the goods to be transported. The greater the volume or weight, the higher the price. -
Type of vehicle
The price may vary depending on the type of vehicle used for the transport and whether special equipment or expertise is required to transport the goods. -
Insurance and liability
Carriers will have some risk associated with the transport assignment, and the cost of insurance and liability can affect the price. -
Competition
The price of transport may vary according to supply and demand in the market and competition between different carriers may lead to price differences. -
Additional services
If special additional services are needed, such as packaging or assembly, this may lead to a higher price for the transport assignment.
These factors can vary depending on different transport needs, so you may want to get quotes from several different carriers to compare prices and find the best solution for your transport needs.

Best transport company
The choice of carrier depends on a number of factors, such as the type of transport needs, budget, and geographical area. The best transport company will therefore vary from person to person and from situation to situation.
When looking for the best transport company, you may want to look for companies that have a good reputation and a long track record of carrying out transport assignments of a similar nature to yours. You should also consider price and availability, as well as the quality of the transport services and the company’s ability to adapt to specific needs. The transport company’s customer service and ability to communicate clearly can also be an important factor.
When finding the best transport company for you, you should check whether the company has all the necessary certifications and insurance in place. In addition, it can be beneficial to choose carriers that have invested in environmentally friendly transport options and have a sustainable transport strategy.
All the carriers we work with are committed to delivering quality, safety, and a great experience for their customers.
Cheap transport
To get the cheapest transport possible, there are several things you can do to reduce costs.
For example, you can consolidate smaller volumes with other goods or shipments if you can.
You can also check if the carrier has low activity times. It is easier to negotiate good prices for times when there would otherwise be no business.
Early planning and booking of transport can give you cheaper prices due to better carrier availability.
If you have regular transport needs, it may be worth signing a contract with a carrier to get fixed prices and discounts. Proper packing and labelling can help to reduce transport costs as the job is less demanding for the carrier.
What should you consider before booking transport?
Before you book transport, there are several things to consider ensuring you get the best transport service for your needs.
First of all, you should think carefully about what your transport needs are. What needs to be transported, how much and how far does it need to be transported? Will it be transported by land, sea, or air? This will influence the type of transport service you should choose and will also affect the price of the assignment.
Next, you should research different transport companies and compare quotes and prices. Check reviews and feedback from previous customers to get a sense of the quality of the services provided. It’s also important to check that the transport company has all certifications in order and that they comply with all laws and regulations.
You should also make sure you have a clear and detailed agreement with the transport company about the services to be provided, as well as payment terms and any insurance or guarantees offered. Be clear about what you expect from the transport company and be careful to state any special requirements or needs you may have.
Finally, you should be aware of any limitations or restrictions that may affect your transport, such as weather conditions, time constraints or special requirements for packaging or securing goods.

Thermal transport refers to the transport of goods that are sensitive to temperature and thus require special temperature control during transport. It can include the transport of foodstuffs, pharmaceutical products, medicines, chemicals, and other goods that require a special temperature during transport to ensure their quality and durability.
Thermal transport is usually carried out with special vehicles equipped with refrigeration systems or heating systems, depending on the specific requirements of the goods being transported. For example, food products such as fresh meat or fish will require temperatures below 5°C to avoid bacterial growth, while pharmaceutical products and medicines may require temperatures much lower or higher.
Thermal transport is an essential service for businesses that produce or sell goods that require special temperature control during transport. It is also important to ensure that the goods being transported are of the right quality and safe for the consumer. To ensure that thermal transport

Specialized transport can include everything from large machinery and equipment, to shipping containers and dangerous goods.
It is important to use specialized transport because it offers the opportunity to transport goods that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to transport by conventional means of transport.
Specialized transport also offers the possibility to transport larger quantities of goods or equipment at the same time, which can lead to cost savings and increased efficiency.
However, special transport is also subject to strict requirements and rules to ensure safe and secure transport. There may be requirements for special training and certification of drivers and crew, as well as special permits for the transport of dangerous goods or very large or heavy loads.
Goods transport
Goods transport plays an important role in the global economy by enabling the movement of goods from producers to consumers and businesses. Various industries and sectors rely on reliable and efficient goods transport services to maintain operations and deliver goods to customers reliably.
A well-developed freight transport system also contributes to economic growth and development, as it enables cross-border trade and investment and provides access to new markets and customers.
