Customers within Europe requiring shipments by road will currently be expected to face delays on their deliveries.
There is currently a backlog of traffic in and out of Calais, and roads both side of the channel tunnel are experiencing delays.
This is directly affecting anything going to the continent by road. DHL and other carriers are currently unable to guarantee when their standard 2-3 service will be resumed.
Customers looking for European deliveries within a set time frame, please discuss alternative 'air' options with our team. We will be happy to provide a competitive economical alternative rate.
