We will inform all our customers about our new rates for 2012 before the end of this calendar year so you know what to expect in the New Year. Our rates are based on data from the NEA, an independent institute for transport research. Just as in previous years, the NIWO - the Dutch National and International Road Transport Organisation - asked the NEA to conduct an independent study. The results showed that transport costs rose by 2.5% in 2011 when compared to 2010 for cross-border transport and by 3.1% for national transport. This increase excludes fuel costs and toll charges.
We expect our rates for 2012 to increase by a maximum of 2.5% or 3.1% in the countries to which this rate applies.
