Freight calculationThe term consignment refers to goods included in transport instructions from oneor several consignors to one consignee at a certain location and made available fortransport on one occasion. A consignment may not exceed the weight/volume ofthe load capacity of the vehicle.To assess the weight-based freight, the following information must always be statedfor the full consignment in addition to the weight in full kg:– Volume in cubic metres. The value is stated to two decimal places followed by m 3 .– Loading metres. Must be stated for consignments that are difficult to pack and ontop of which other goods cannot be loaded. The value should be stated to onedecimal place followed by FLM.– Pallet space = non-stackable pallet. The value is stated followed by PP.In the case of goods that are difficult to stow, because of the nature of the object orthe packing means that they cannot be packed as normal groupage with other goods ormaximum use cannot be made of the load area, the freight is calculated in such a waythat consideration is given to the load area required by the goods (see weight per flatmetre table next to the heading Goods that are difficult to stow).The term loading metre refers to a metre on the platform with the full width andheight of the load space.The term actual weight or gross weight refer to the weight of the consignment asregistered on the scales, including packing and loading accessories (e.g. pallets).The term bulk weight refers to the consignment volume (length x width x height)expressed in cubic metres to two decimal places, including packing and loadingaccessories (e.g. pallets) multiplied by the weight accordance with the table(see table under the heading Calculating bulky goods) or when calculating loadingmetre, the number of loading metres to one decimal place multiplied by the weightin accordance with the table (Calculating flat metre for bulky goods).Freight calculationBulky goods:Freight calculated according to:Domestic: For a non-stackable pallet, the price iscalculated according to pallet space.International: For a stackable pallet with a height ofless than 1.5 m incl. the pallet, the price is calculatedaccording to volume.

The size of the freight is based on weight or volume (which is convertedto weight), as well as on the distance between two rate points.DB SCHENKERcoldsped. The prices are based on weight, volume and distance.Freight prices are calculated according to a price list agreed upon betweenDB <strong>Schenker</strong> and the customer or in relation to a price list applied by DB <strong>Schenker</strong>for c-classified locations. As agreed, transport can be undertaken to other locationsc1, c2, c3 and c4 (see DB <strong>Schenker</strong> Location list).

The locations are divided into two categories: primary locationsand secondary locations. Each secondary location is linked to a specific primary location,which is the rate point when calculating distance. Each primary location and therelated secondary locations make up a primary location area.Location list. The DB <strong>Schenker</strong> Location list shows, in alphabetical order, all theSwedish locations that can be used as address locations. Only one location name maybe used as a dispatching destination or receiving location. Location names other thanthe ones listed in the Location list may not be used as an address without separateagreement.DB SCHENKERsystem, -direct and -coldsped. The Location list states the countyand rate point for secondary locations.DistanceWhen calculating the freight only the distance between the primary locations (ratepoints) is used, see DB <strong>Schenker</strong> distance table. The distances are taken from theSwedish Transport Administration distance table. The distances for consignments toand from Gotland are calculated via Nynäshamn or Oskarshamn, whereby 150 km isadded to the distance between the primary locations. Using the position of the primarylocations as a starting point, DB <strong>Schenker</strong> always attempts to find the shortestroute when calculating the freight for Gotland consignments.Other informationNB: In the tables issued by DB <strong>Schenker</strong>, the distance between Gotland andNynäs-hamn/Oskarshamn (150 km) is included in the stated distances betweenlocations on the mainland and Gotland.

KAPITEL C. Combiterms 2000Incoterms 2010Combiterms 2010 – Land transportIn the case of cross-border transport assignments DB <strong>Schenker</strong> makes use of of theCombiterms 2011 rules.Combiterms were first published in 1969 and with thisversion they have been updated four times. This takesplace each time in association with the correspondingrevision of Incoterms, which are the interpretation rulesfor the International Chamber of Commerce for the moreimportant delivery clauses in world trade.Combiterms, which do not compete with Incoterms, are anaid when translating the legal text Incoterms into a costdivision between seller and buyer.In a simple and easily understandable way Combitermsshows the costs which arise in conjunction with crossbordertransport. Examples of such costs are collection,storage, loading, unloading and distribution. Other examplesare customs, taxes and charges as well as the CIPinsurance costs clause.Particularly in conjunction with the transport of groupage,costs arise which could be difficult to divide betweenvendor and purchaser. Combiterms solve this by combiningthe terms of trade with an easily understandable systemfor dividing costs between the parties. The risk of interpretationproblems is reduced.To further avoid different interpretations DB <strong>Schenker</strong> hasemployed the practice of agreeing with the customer onthe application of a cost division before the transportassignment is performed.Under the heading ‘Remarks’ points 1-2, there is clarificationof the interpretation of ‘terminal’ in the exportcountry and the import country, freight paid and excludingcosts.www.dbschenker.com/seOn the DB <strong>Schenker</strong> website you can find <strong>PDF</strong> files withCombiterms 2011 – Land transport, which are applied byDB <strong>Schenker</strong>.For further information you are always welcome tocontact your nearest DB <strong>Schenker</strong> office.26
