Our Spain→Italy corridor runs scheduled departures from Castellar del Vallès (Barcelona); their empty return capacity is what the Italy→Spain service uses. It is LTL groupage on the return leg — arranged on request, confirmed when a returning departure has room, and never sold as an independent reverse timetable. Northern-Italian collections funnel through the Castellar cross-dock for final delivery in Barcelona, Madrid or Valencia. Italy and Spain share EU membership, so the whole move rides one CMR note with zero customs formalities.
Italy's Spain-bound flows concentrate in the industrial north: the Milan–Lombardy manufacturing and fashion-logistics hub, Turin's automotive base around the historic FIAT/Stellantis cluster, the Veronese agrifood and interporto distribution node, and Bologna's packaging-and-mechanics Motor Valley. These export-dense regions along the Po Valley feed steady return-leg pallets onto trucks routing home via Ventimiglia and La Jonquera.
Plan on 3–4 days in transit for groupage. The band is symmetric with our forward Spain→Italy corridor — road distance is the same in either direction (around 1,000 km via Ventimiglia and 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→Italy departure, capacity is offered on request and confirmed once we have return-leg space — it is not a fixed reverse timetable.
No. Italy 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.
Machinery and mechanical equipment from Lombardy and Bologna's Motor Valley, fashion and textile goods from the Milan area, and packaged non-perishable products from the Veneto. All as ambient LTL groupage — palletised dry freight consolidated for the return run to Spain.
Send us your pickup point, pallet count and weight — we'll check return-leg space and come back with a price.
