Freight tools

Truck & Van Selector

Tell us your load — we recommend the right vehicle (van, LCV, porteur, semi, mega, refrigerated, dedicated express) and flag the EU 2026 compliance trap.

Picking the wrong vehicle for a freight job costs you a re-dispatch, a fine, or both. Drop your shipment details below and we'll match it to the right truck — and warn you if your 3.5t LCV is about to step into the EU 1 July 2026 ruleset.

Why this tool exists

It helps match cargo, access, and timing constraints to a realistic vehicle before a quote is requested.

How it works

  1. Enter the cargo and access details.
  2. The tool checks vehicle fit and constraints against practical road-freight rules.
  3. Use the result to choose a truck size before quoting.

FAQ

How does the tool decide between vehicle sizes?

It matches your cargo dimensions, weight, and access constraints against typical European vehicle classes (utility van, fourgon 20m³, porteur 12T/19T, semi-remorque 90m³) and surfaces the smallest profile that legally fits the load.

Does it account for legal load limits and driver hours?

It applies standard European gross-weight and axle limits and warns when a load is borderline. Cabotage rules, ADR classification, and driver-hours compliance still need a transport specialist to confirm before booking.

What does Remo&Co verify before quoting?

Live truck availability on your lane, the exact internal dimensions of the unit assigned, special equipment (tail-lift, ATP, GPS), and customer-side constraints (loading dock height, time window, signature requirements).
