Warehousing

Properly and professionally stored, protected and managed goods.

We offer space solutions for decongesting your company’s raw materials or finished products. Depending on the type of goods, they can be stored in compact blocks on racks and shelves or using a different modality, but always in the most suitable location.

One of the warehousing options in demand by our customers is micro-warehousing. Storage space can be dynamically increased or reduced when needed, without obligation. A fast, flexible and profitable solution.

Transport

Cotrali offers FTL and groupage services for shipments within Spain and internationally.

Full truckload (FTL): Service directed at manufacturers, distributors, agencies, freight forwarders and traders. Just-in-time services, urgent orders, vans, rigid HGVs and trailers.

Groupage: For less-than-truckload (LTL) volumes, this service that does not involve breaking down the load is more economical and offers the same standard of quality as FTL because there is no intermediate handling of goods.

Local distribution: Local distribution of parcels and pallets in the provinces of Zaragoza, Huesca, Teruel, Navarre, Logroño and Soria. Daily service using rigid HGVs equipped with tail lifts.

Air and sea freight

Cotrali also offers you the possibility of air and sea freight, depending on delivery requirements, with either option having its advantages and drawbacks.

Sea freight

This type of transport has numerous benefits: it allows many different types of cargo, parcels and containers to be shipped without volume or weight restrictions. Moreover, you can ship all categories of products, whether solid, liquid, gas or bulk.

Unlike air freight, it offers the possibility of shipping dangerous materials, although delivery of the goods takes longer. However, maritime transport tends to produce more pollution and you are likely to need a second form of transport to complete the shipment.

Air freight

This form of shipping is very versatile, because aircraft are adapted to different types of goods. One of the main advantages is time and speed of delivery, which enables all available markets to be served. It is also a very safe means of transport in terms of accidents.

However, it is the most expensive method per kilogram of freight, which can affect cost ratios and profitability. Another unfavourable aspect is payload capacity, which is not only more limited, but means shipping 10 cubic metres is the same as shipping one tonne.

Dangerous goods transport

How can you ensure the proper transport of these products?

Cotrali also provides transport for dangerous goods, commonly referred to by the initials ADR (Agreement on Dangerous Goods by Road).

It is of the utmost importance for us to guarantee that all the deliveries we make are correctly managed and comply with the laws in force. We have a team of specialists for this purpose, and we use the services of a safety advisor.

We offer the most effective management of your dangerous goods, taking into account the following factors:

  • The dangerous product that needs to be shipped
  • UN number
  • Type of container and packaging
  • The shipper and recipient of the goods and unloading conditions
  • Necessary documentation and labelling
  • Restrictions for dangerous goods transport

Transport of hazardous and non-hazardous waste

Vehicles equipped with every safety measure

We deal with these types of waste owing to our licensing by the government of the Autonomous Community of Aragon, authorisation number AR/TRP-24/2003. Our personnel is trained as required, with additional internal training provided in order to provide a fully satisfactory service.

The transport of non-hazardous waste by road continues to be habitual. It can only be provided by specialist companies, not only because it involves not only transporting the waste from one place to another, but also doing this in a professional manner to prevent health and safety incidents while complying with the applicable laws and fostering circularity.

Cotrali vehicles are equipped with the necessary safety measures for the transport of every type of waste.
