Overview
Europe, particularly Germany, is one of the most active destinations for shipments from Turkey. In recent years, daily shipments to Germany have increased significantly, driven by political and economic developments in the Middle East.
Conflicts in Syria, economic instability in Lebanon, the war in Yemen, and other factors have made Turkey a transit hub for both legal and illegal migrants heading to Europe, especially Germany. Some migrants spend extended periods in Turkey before their applications are accepted, while others split between Turkey and Germany.
These circumstances, combined with pre-existing trade between Turkey and Germany, have created high demand for shipping services. Turk Mirsal has responded by offering comprehensive shipping solutions for both commercial shipments and personal cargo such as clothing, food, furniture, machinery, and documents.
Shipping Methods from Turkey to Germany
Several factors influence the choice of shipping method, including cargo weight, cost, and delivery time. Typically:
- Large-volume shipments require sea shipping.
- Light to medium-weight goods are usually shipped by air, though sea shipping is an option if delivery time is flexible, saving on costs since sea shipping is generally cheaper than air shipping.
There is no practical land shipping between Turkey and Europe, so only two main methods are used:
Air Shipping
Air shipping is ideal for lightweight, urgent shipments, including documents and parcels. Express shipping is often used for papers, while travelers with excess luggage can also use air cargo services. Turk Mirsal ensures that all air shipments are secure, timely, and cost-effective, providing door-to-door delivery when needed.
Sea Shipping
Sea shipping is used for large or heavy shipments, offering a more economical solution. Key benefits include:
- Booking containers for full or partial loads, depending on cargo size.
- Professional packing and organization of goods within containers.
- Consulting services and expert advice on international shipping regulations, without requiring the client to handle complex details.
Turk Mirsal also provides guidance on container utilization and shipping logistics to save clients time and money.
