The cost of shipping a pallet from Poland to Finland via Furgonetka depends on the pallet type, not its weight. Shipments are handled by DHL Freight, and the final rate is influenced by four factors: the type of pallet (half-pallet, Euro-pallet, industrial pallet), the recipient's postal code in Finland, the address type (business or residential), and any selected additional services. You can check the current price in our calculator.

‍

What this means in practice:

• An 80 kg Euro-pallet and a 700 kg Euro-pallet have the same base price — it is the pallet type that counts, not the weight.
• The recipient's postal code determines the zone — delivery to Helsinki, Tampere, or Turku may cost differently than delivery to towns in central or northern Finland, away from major logistics hubs.
• Pickup or delivery at a residential address incurs a one-time surcharge (it does not double if both addresses are residential).
• Shipment insurance is optional and paid — you can cover goods up to 19,999 PLN.
• A vehicle with a tail lift is included in the service and is ordered automatically, without the need for a special request.

‍

You can ship a pallet to Finland via the Furgonetka.pl dashboard in four simple steps: select the pallet type and enter the recipient's postal code, book your DHL Freight shipment, print the shipping label and attach it to your packed pallet, and a courier will collect it from your specified address. The service is door-to-door and available under our brokerage agreement — you don't need to arrange Baltic Sea transport separately or look for a Finnish carrier.

Step by step:

1. Get a quote — enter the pallet type (half-pallet, Euro pallet, industrial pallet) and the recipient's postal code in Finland. The price depends on the pallet type, not its weight.
2. Book your shipment — placing an order automatically schedules the courier pickup. There is no separate "book a courier" step.
3. Prepare the pallet — wrap the goods in stretch film, secure them with straps, and ensure nothing overhangs the pallet edges. You must provide your own pallet; the courier does not supply one.
4. Attach the shipping label to the outside of the shipment and hand the pallet over to the DHL Freight courier.

‍

Good to know before you ship:

• A vehicle with a tail lift is ordered automatically — you don't need to request this or select anything extra in the form. A loading ramp at the sender's location is not required.
• Shipping to or from a private address incurs a one-time surcharge.
• Cargo insurance up to 19,999 PLN is optional — this service does not include free insurance.
• Shipment redirection is possible at any stage of transit, but only within Finland and subject to an individual quote.

‍

You can ship a half-pallet (80 × 60 cm), a Euro pallet (120 × 80 cm), or an industrial pallet (120 × 100 cm) to Finland, with a maximum weight of 750 kg and a maximum height of 210 cm — both parameters include the pallet itself. A single order can include multiple pallets of the same type.

‍

Available pallet types and quantity limits per shipment:

• Half-pallet — 80 × 60 cm — maximum of 5 units per shipment.
• Euro pallet (EPAL) — 120 × 80 cm — maximum of 5 units per shipment.
• Industrial pallet — 120 × 100 cm — maximum of 4 units per shipment.

‍

Other rules:

• Maximum weight per pallet, including the pallet: 750 kg. Maximum height: 210 cm.
• Maximum actual weight of the entire multi-pallet shipment: 2500 kg.
• You cannot mix different types of pallets in a single order — all pallets in a shipment must be of the same type.
• Goods must not overhang or extend beyond the edges of the pallet — overhanging cartons reduce their durability by more than 30%.
• The top surface of the shipment must be flat; stacking in a pyramid shape puts the goods at risk of damage and delays.
• The pallet must be wrapped in stretch film and secured with straps; attach the shipping label to the outside, never inside the load.
• The courier does not provide pallets — the sender must provide them independently.

‍

Shipments packed inconsistently with these guidelines may be repriced by the carrier according to the Road Freight Standard offer. Shipments to Finland also undergo a sea crossing, so securing the pallet firmly is even more critical here than on neighboring routes.

‍

No. Finland is a member of the European Union, so a pallet sent from Poland is not subject to customs clearance or duties — goods move freely within the EU single market. You do not need to prepare a customs declaration, export declaration, or pay customs duties, even though the route involves crossing the Baltic Sea.

‍

Documents worth preparing when shipping to Finland:

• Shipping label — generated in the Furgonetka.pl panel and attached to the pallet before the courier arrives.
• Commercial invoice — included with the goods for B2B shipments; also useful in the event of a claim.
• Recipient's EU VAT number — the Finnish ALV number with the FI prefix, if you are settling the transaction as an intra-Community supply of goods (ICS) at a 0% rate.
• Proof of delivery — for ICS, tax authorities may require proof that the goods have reached Finland.
