Service Information

The Balearics are a group of islands in the Mediterranean sea off the eastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula and are renowned as a massive tourist location. The four largest islands for which we operate road freight services to are Majorca (Mallorca), Minorca (Mecorca), Ibiza & Formentera. Much of the business to these islands is seasonal, and with this in mind our services are more frequent during the peak season from May to October, and less frequent outside of this period.

Our freight service to the Balearics

Our road freight service to these islands is handled in conjunction with our road freight service to Barcelona. As there is no freight as such coming back from the islands, the majority of freight is handled from Barcelona by our partners M.C. Trinter S.A.. Freight which cannot be transshipped can deliver directly on trailer, but the trailers have to return to the mainland empty.

As the islands are Spanish owned, and therefore part of the European Union, there are usually no customs formalities to undertake. This will, however, change post-Brexit.

Furthermore, as much of the merchandise transported consists of foodstuffs, clients wishing us to transport dangerous goods should allow an additional day or two in case of compatibility issues, particularly when transshipping from the mainland.

Key tip

The majority of companies in the Balearics do not own a fork lift truck so many deliveries need to be made with a tail lift vehicle equipped with a hand pump truck which can be provided at an additional cost. So it is worth making that additional check before dispatch.

First impression – first class

Good Morning Phil

I am the Manager of North Walkden Vets (Over 35’s) Football Club.

I would like to thank you along with James Mears who is an integral part of our team for agreeing to sponsor our new football kit which we will be wearing for the next 2 seasons. The financial support will ensure that the team can continue on a sound footing for at least the next 2 seasons, so we are very grateful for this.

On a business front, I have got to understand what Mearsy does for a job and as a result have sent some enquiries and secured a number of jobs using your company to transport some of our goods to France, Israel and Qatar in the last few weeks.

The first impressions I have of your company has been very good, The service I have received from the likes of Mearsy, Andrew Knowles & Rebecca Heap has been first class!

Mark Dougill, Export Manager, A1 Shutters.
