Servers, network technology, semiconductor equipment and measuring instruments combine three transport risks: high goods value, sensitivity to shock and electrostatics, and tight delivery dates. Speed Logistics drives for technology companies, data centres, system houses and machine builders of the semiconductor industry – as a secured direct transport without transhipment, with air-sprung vehicles and continuous GPS tracking.
Whether a rack delivery to the data centre, a plant move between production sites or urgent replacement hardware after an outage: our dispatch team is available 24/7 and calculates a non-binding fixed-price quote for you within a few hours.
Scope of service for the technology industry
- Server transports and data-centre rollouts: pre-configured racks upright, padded and lashed
- Semiconductor and electronics manufacturing: plant modules, wafer-handling equipment, measuring and test technology
- Express spare-parts logistics in the event of system outages – at night and at weekends too
- IT moves and hardware relocations between sites in Europe and non-EU countries
On top of this come sensitive measuring and test instruments whose calibration does not tolerate a hard shock, as well as prototypes and pre-series where, besides integrity, confidentiality also counts. For both the rule is: exclusive vehicle, no co-loading, documented handover.
ESD protection, climate and vibration: how we drive high-tech
Electronic assemblies stay in their ESD protective packaging during the transport; we ensure dry, clean load spaces and avoid condensation risks through coordinated loading and unloading windows. Sensitive systems drive air-sprung and secured form-fit, racks standing, padded and lashed against tipping and slipping. On request, shock and tilt indicators or data loggers accompany the shipment – so on delivery you can see immediately whether the goods were handled correctly for transport.
For data-centre rollouts the logic of sequence is added: racks have to arrive in the sequence in which they are brought in and cabled. We load according to the installation plan, label packages clearly and, for multi-stage rollouts, deliver in timed waves – so the delivery zone stays clear and your team works without searching. If installation is delayed, we hold vehicles back flexibly instead of blocking the ramp.
Security for high-value cargo
IT hardware is theft-prone. Our transports therefore run with live GPS tracking, sealed or locked load spaces and no parking at unsupervised places. For particularly valuable shipments we dispatch two drivers for a continuous journey on request and coordinate the handover on a personal basis: delivery is made only to named recipients against signature. Extended value insurance beyond the CMR basic liability we set up per shipment.
On-time delivery to the data centre or into production
Data centres and fabs work with tight delivery windows, access controls and sometimes special requirements for packaging and delivery. We pre-register driver and vehicle, keep to agreed slots and, if needed, bring a tail lift and roller aids so racks can be moved to the handover zone. For deliveries to Türkiye, North Africa or the Middle East we additionally handle the complete customs clearance from EXW to DDP – including checking whether dual-use-relevant items require an export licence.
Your fixed-price quote – including vehicle choice, securing concept and, where applicable, customs clearance – you usually receive within a few hours. For recurring hardware services between fixed sites we offer calculable framework conditions, so purchasing and IT operations can plan reliably.
