Seasonal Support for Transport
Seasonal capacity to Spain During summer (June–October), available truck capacity on the Netherlands–Spain route drops significantly. Drivers take holidays, return cargo from Spain to the Netherlands decreases, and spot market rates rise. Portex runs a fixed daily line — also in summer. Clients who book before April secure their capacity and benefit from lower rates.
