How to plan "curbside delivery" like an expert
With the right preparation, handing over the property will be a breeze.
- 1
Check the unloading point realistically
Is the access road clear? Are there any construction sites, bottlenecks, or driving restrictions? An incorrect unloading point is the most common cost driver.
- 2
Consistently secure removal routes
Don't underestimate the removal distance. If the team is missing, the goods remain outside – and time becomes expensive.
- 3
Clarify holding option
Without parking space, downtime occurs. In narrow streets: organize no-parking zones in advance.
- 4
Safeguard against risk
Even with the utmost care, there is still a residual risk. Consider whether transport insurance is advisable, depending on the value and sensitivity of the item.
What DACHSER & KOLB requires from you
To ensure that "Frei Bordsteinkante" runs smoothly, we need clear operational information from you:
✓ Exact delivery address, access information, contact person on site
✓ Photo/sketch of the unloading situation (curb, gate, driveway)
✓ Information about any special circumstances (narrow streets, construction sites, driving restrictions)
✓ Clarification of your carrying arrangements from the curb (carrying route, helpers, time window)
So läuft die AOD-Planung richtig ab (Schritt für Schritt)
1. Adress- und Laufweg-Check
Belade- und Auslieferadresse inklusive Zugangsdaten werden geprüft. Ohne diese Basis ist eine AOD-Optimierung blind.
2. Volumen- & Gewichts-Kalkulation
Wir betrachten Volumengewicht und Air Chargeable Weight (ACW), damit Luftfrachtkosten realistisch kalkuliert werden.
3. Dokumenten-Management
Ein sauberer Air Waybill (AWB)-Prozess plus belastbare Umzugsgutliste reduziert Reibung vor Abflug und bei der Übergabe.
4. AOD & Nachlauf-Modell
Die AOD-Entscheidung wird immer zusammen mit Vorlauf, Handling und Origin Service bewertet – nicht isoliert.
5. Verpackungsstandard & Schutz
Spezialverpackungen, Kantenschutz, Luftpolsterfolie, Stretchfolie, Crate/Emballage – abgestimmt auf Route und Risiko.
6. Präzise Zustellung
Abholzeitfenster, Fahrzeugzugang und Verladerealität müssen passen. Engstellen? Dann Technik wie Außenaufzug oder Shuttle-Service früh einplanen.

Small mistakes, costly consequences – How to plan your delivery correctly
- Planning too late → tight time frame, rising costs
- No-parking zones saved → downtime, stress, delays
- Underestimating transport distance → physical strain, hectic pace, significant time loss
- Assuming "one person is enough" → the plan falls apart when it comes to weight/volume
- No backup plan → damage quickly becomes a budget problem

Frequently asked questions about "curbside delivery"
Is "curbside delivery" cheaper than delivery to your doorstep?＋

Access, parking options (no parking zone, if applicable), volume/cubic meters, time window, protection requirements (e.g., edge protection), and insurance requirements, if applicable.
How is delivery documented?＋
Via proof of delivery (POD). This provides clarity during handover and afterwards.
How can I reduce the risk of damage?＋
With consistent surface protection (edge protection, covers, stretch film, bubble wrap) and professional load securing.
