Spain→France is one of our shortest scheduled corridors out of Castellar del Vallès (Barcelona), and France→Spain is simply the load those trucks carry back. We offer it as return-leg LTL groupage, booked on request and subject to homebound space — not a separate reverse service. French pickups consolidate at the Castellar cross-dock before delivery to Barcelona, Madrid or Valencia, and with both countries inside the EU the freight needs only a CMR consignment note — no customs.
France's Spain-bound freight clusters along the Rhône and northern axes: the Lyon and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes manufacturing and chemicals base, the Lille–Hauts-de-France distribution belt feeding the Benelux gateway, Strasbourg and the Grand Est industrial corridor on the Rhine, and the Marseille–Fos logistics platform on the Mediterranean. With only La Jonquera between them and Catalonia, these regions are the most natural source of return-leg pallets on the corridor.
Plan on 2–3 days in transit for groupage. The band is symmetric with our forward Spain→France corridor — road distance is the same in either direction (around 650 km via La Jonquera).
Send us the pickup point, pallet count and weight via the quote form. Because reverse loads ride the return leg of a scheduled Spain→France departure, capacity is offered on request and confirmed once we have return-leg space — it is not a fixed reverse timetable.
No. France and Spain are both in the EU customs union, so this is intra-EU transport moving on a CMR consignment note only — no import/export clearance, no customs broker.
One pallet or around 500 kg. Below that, parcel carriers are usually cheaper; above a few pallets we consolidate it as part-load groupage on the return leg.
No. SAVA is ambient road freight only — we do not operate reefer or temperature-controlled equipment on any lane, including return legs.
Aerospace and automotive components, industrial equipment and general manufactured goods from the Rhône-Alpes and Grand Est regions. It moves as ambient LTL groupage — palletised dry freight consolidated onto the returning trailer.
Send us your pickup point, pallet count and weight — we'll check return-leg space and come back with a price.
