Surcharges for business customers

For parcels with weights and dimensions differing from the maximum weights and dimensions for standard parcels and bulky goods, we apply expense-related surcharges starting from CHF 100.00. We reserve the right to limit the range of services for such consignments. If we cannot deliver the consignment, you will be required to pay the same surcharge for return shipment. No surcharge is applied for forwarding operations.
