The choices you make determine whether your package will be delivered successfully—and that’s the goal, of course. However, we still see mistakes being made when sending business-to-business packages, leading to negative consequences for both the sender and the recipient.

Nobody wants that, of course. To avoid this, it’s essential to accurately measure and weigh your shipment before registering it with the carrier. Beyond dimensions and weight, delivery conditions can also lead to unexpected surcharges. When shipping a business package internationally, the recipient may even need to pay import duties before accepting the package. That’s why it’s crucial to send your package using the correct Incoterms. By using the [TFF Xpress Portal](https://www.tfflogistics.com/en/freight-forwarder/tff-xpress-shipping-portal/ "TFF Xpress Portal") , you always receive all-in pricing based on the details you provide. This way, you can avoid unexpected surcharges. ![Container transport](https://www.tfflogistics.com/content/uploads/sites/2/2024/08/vrachtverzekering-1.jpg) ## Avoid 9 other common mistakes when shipping B2B packages Want to know how to avoid 9 more common mistakes when shipping business packages?
