Travelling by vehicle
Due to the design of our "Skane Jet", it is important that we know the exact height of your vehicle before your departure. The height categories is very important and must be strictly adhered to.
The total height and total length must include all superstructures and attachments (e.g. aerials, satellite dish, bicycle rack, etc.).

If your booked height or length is not correct on the day of departure, we unfortunately cannot guarantee transport.
Is your vehicle longer?
