When every hour counts
At Doseguer we know some shipments cannot wait for the next day's departure. With an express cold shipment, speed matters as much as safety: that is why we keep a dedicated urgent refrigerated service, with direct transit and no groupage to cut handling and time.
It is the service we activate for a stock-out, a demand peak, a batch that missed the scheduled departure, or high-value goods that cannot take another day of waiting. The route is planned live and the vehicle leaves with its temperature setting already verified.
When an urgent cold shipment makes sense
The urgent service costs more than the standard one, so it is worth keeping for the cases where it genuinely pays off:
A platform or store that runs out of product and cannot wait for the regular departure.
Critical product that has to leave today while holding its storage range.
Fruit, vegetables and short shelf-life products whose season leaves no room for delay.
Deep-frozen goods and ice cream, where a long wait at the dock is the main risk.
Trials, sampling and small consignments of high value that cannot be postponed.
Urgent re-shipments and replacements when something has failed further up the chain.
How we run an urgent shipment
An urgent job is won or lost in the first hour. Our procedure is deliberately short: verify the temperature range, assign a vehicle and go, with the unit checked before it reaches the loading point.
From there the route is direct and tracking is active: we give notice at each milestone and confirm delivery with the temperature record for the journey.
An urgent shipment, step by step
Why choose us for an urgent cold shipment
Direct routes planned to arrive as fast as possible, without compromising the temperature setting.
Owning the vehicles is what lets us reassign a departure without depending on third parties.
Temperature and position monitored throughout the journey, not just at the end.
More than three decades of national and international refrigerated transport.
Someone who knows your shipment, not a call centre.
Every urgent job is different: we adjust vehicle, route and schedule to the case.
Urgent shipments in Spain and Europe
We activate urgent shipments both on domestic routes and on the European corridors we run regularly. Availability depends on the fleet and the loading point, so the first thing we do is confirm a realistic transit time before you commit to your customer.
Frequently asked questions
Can you arrange an urgent collection today?
It depends on fleet availability and the loading point, but that is exactly what this service exists for. Call us and we will confirm straight away whether we can and by when.
Is delivery direct, with no intermediate stops?
Yes. In urgent mode the route is direct: we do not consolidate with other loads, in order to cut handling and dock time.
How does it differ from the express option within national transport?
The national express service shortens transit within our regular operation (12–24 h on the mainland). Urgent goes a step further: it is activated outside the departure schedule, with a dedicated vehicle and a direct route.
What paperwork do you provide when the service closes?
Proof of delivery and, where applicable, the temperature record for the journey and the milestone report.
Do you handle urgent refrigerated parcels?
No. We work with pallets and full loads; for loose packages and cold courier shipments there are specialised operators that fit better.
