Eurodita ships B2B log cabin orders to UK dealers via road freight, door to door from the factory in Kaunas, Lithuania. The freight partner handles all customs paperwork. UK dealers do not arrange port pickup, do not contract a separate customs broker, and do not coordinate inland transport from a port to their yard - the consignment arrives at the dealer location as a single managed shipment. This logistics structure has been part of Eurodita's B2B model since the manufacturer began serving UK dealers; it is a structural feature of how the company supplies the UK channel rather than an ad-hoc arrangement per order. UAB Eurodita has manufactured timber structures since 1994 and works exclusively with dealers, distributors, and private-label partners.
What "door-to-door road freight" means for UK dealers
UK B2B log cabin sourcing typically forces a dealer to coordinate three separate parties: the manufacturer, the freight forwarder (or shipping line), and a UK customs broker. Each transition is a handoff, and each handoff is where delays, fees, and paperwork errors surface. The Eurodita model collapses that to a single coordinated relationship.
For the UK dealer, the practical workflow looks like this:
- Order confirmed at quote stage. The dealer agrees on the spec and the destination address (yard, customer site, or temporary storage). No separate freight engagement required.
- Production scheduled. Eurodita builds the cabin to the agreed specification at the Kaunas factory.
- Outbound logistics handled by the freight partner. The cabin loads into a road freight unit at the factory. Customs paperwork - both export and UK import - is prepared and submitted by the freight partner, not by the dealer.
- Single transit. The shipment travels by road from Lithuania to the UK destination. There is no port pickup step for the dealer; the consignment continues from the port to the destination as one transit.
- Door delivery. The cabin arrives at the dealer's specified UK address. The free spare-parts kit ships with the consignment in the same transit.
The dealer's responsibility is the receipt - inspection, signing, on-site handling - not the upstream logistics chain.
Why this matters for UK dealer operations
1. No separate freight broker engagement
UK dealers serving end customers from holiday parks, garden building yards, or B2B project sites do not need to maintain a relationship with a separate freight forwarder for each Eurodita order. The freight is part of the manufacturer-direct B2B model. For a small or mid-size UK dealer, this removes an entire vendor relationship and the procurement overhead that comes with it - RFQs, contract reviews, insurance certificates, claim handling.
2. No UK customs broker procurement
Customs paperwork for goods entering the UK from the EU has been a recurring frustration for B2B importers. The Eurodita freight partner handles export declarations from the EU side and import declarations on the UK side. The dealer is not signing customs documents, is not paying separate broker fees, and is not coordinating with HMRC or the manufacturer's logistics team to resolve customs questions. A single contact at Eurodita is the dealer's interface end-to-end.
3. No port pickup or inland transport coordination
If a dealer's order arrived at a UK port and stopped there, the dealer would need to engage an inland haulier to move the cabin from the port to the destination yard. This adds another handoff, another invoice, and another scheduling layer. With door-to-door road freight from Kaunas, the consignment continues from the port through to the dealer's address as one continuous transit. The cabin lands at the dealer's location.
4. Single-handle accountability
If something goes wrong in transit - a damaged glazing unit, a delayed customs clearance, a route change - the dealer raises one ticket with one contact at Eurodita. The internal coordination between Eurodita, the freight partner, and any customs intermediary happens behind the scenes. Compare with multi-vendor logistics, where the dealer is the one phoning between three or four parties to find which one owns the resolution.
How door-to-door road freight fits into the no-MOQ model
The single-managed-shipment logistics structure is what makes no-minimum-order B2B sourcing economically practical for UK dealers. If a dealer ordering a single-unit cabin pilot also had to set up freight, customs, and inland transport from scratch, the per-order coordination cost would push small orders out of feasibility. Door-to-door road freight from the factory means the per-order coordination is fixed: the same single-contact relationship handles a one-cabin pilot or a multi-unit consignment.
The other elements of the no-MOQ B2B service stack are designed to align with this:
- Per-spec quoting - every order priced individually based on cabin model, dimensions, wall thickness (19mm to 70mm solid log or 70mm to 220mm glulam), and glazing tier. The freight component is integrated.
- 50/50 payment - payment terms identical for single-unit and multi-unit UK orders.
- Free spare-parts kit shipped with the consignment - no separate dispatch.
- Free transport-damage replacement parts - covered by the manufacturer-direct relationship, not by an external claim chain.
- Sample timber kits available by individual agreement - qualified UK dealers can request samples before committing to a pilot.
- 10-year manufacturer warranty - production-defect coverage applies after delivery, regardless of order size.
For UK dealers serving holiday parks, residential garden buildings, project companies, or private-label partners, this structure means the procurement decision can be made on cabin spec and end-customer fit rather than on logistics complexity.
UK logistics FAQ for B2B dealers
Does Eurodita ship single cabins to UK dealers, or only multi-unit orders?
Single-unit shipments are part of the standard B2B model. Eurodita does not require a UK dealer to fill a container before shipping; the per-spec quoting structure means a single cabin pilot is dispatched the same way as a multi-unit consignment - door-to-door road freight, customs handled by the freight partner. UK dealers who want to test a specification in their market before scaling up can order one cabin, take delivery, and decide on follow-up orders based on the dealer's own market signal. The same logistics structure (single managed shipment, factory to dealer address, no separate broker engagement) applies whether the order is one cabin or several. The freight component is part of the per-order quote rather than a separate negotiation.
Who arranges UK customs paperwork?
The freight partner contracted by Eurodita handles UK customs paperwork end-to-end - export declarations on the Lithuanian side and import declarations on the UK side. The dealer does not sign customs documents, does not retain a separate UK customs broker for the shipment, and does not pay a broker fee that's separate from the freight component of the order. If HMRC or the freight side requires additional documentation (for example, related to the cabin specification or commodity codes), the request flows through the dealer's single contact at Eurodita rather than coming from an outside broker. The dealer's role is to receive the cabin at the agreed UK address.
Does the cabin arrive at a UK port, or at the dealer's address?
The cabin arrives at the dealer's specified UK address - yard, customer-handover site, or temporary storage location agreed at the quote stage. The road freight transit continues from the UK port through to the destination as one managed shipment. UK dealers do not arrange a separate inland haulier to move the consignment from the port to the dealer location. This is the "door-to-door" element of the logistics structure: the manufacturer ships from the factory door and the freight partner delivers to the dealer door, with no dealer-coordinated handoff in between. UK dealers serving multiple sites can request different destinations on different orders; each consignment goes to the address agreed for that specific order.
What happens if there is transport damage?
Eurodita ships a free spare-parts kit with every consignment, which covers many of the small components most likely to be affected by transport handling - hinges, weather seals, glazing accessories, fasteners. For damage beyond what the kit covers, the dealer documents the damaged components on receipt (photos, item codes from the parts list) and submits a damage report to the Eurodita single contact. Replacement parts dispatch free of charge from the manufacturer; the dealer does not invoice the freight partner directly or pursue a freight insurance claim. This is part of the manufacturer-direct B2B model: the cabin arrives, the dealer inspects, and any transport-related shortfall is resolved by Eurodita through the same channel as the original order.
Can a UK dealer specify the destination address per order?
Yes. The destination address is set at the quote stage on a per-order basis. A UK dealer with a yard in one location and a customer-handover site in another can have one order routed to the yard and the next order routed directly to the end-customer address. The single-managed-shipment structure adapts to the destination of each order rather than locking the dealer to a single delivery address. For dealers serving holiday parks or project sites, this means a cabin can be delivered to the eventual installation location without an interim transfer at the dealer's own premises. The flexibility is part of the per-order quote: the destination is captured alongside the spec, and the freight component reflects the routing.
