Our new freight exchange is online. Interested transport partners can register here. We would like to ask transport partners who are already registered to also register in the new system in order to gain access.
Simply register now using the button below. We look forward to welcoming you soon as a transport partner at DAGO Express.
There are three important requirements for registering as a transport partner with DAGO Express: you need a business registration, a freight carrier insurance, and at least one vehicle of your own (Caddy, transporter, etc.). You can conveniently submit the required documents through the registration form. Once the documents are reviewed and your partnership is confirmed, you will receive a notification via email.
No, registration on the DAGO Express website is sufficient and is also free of charge. After registering, simply upload the mentioned documents and wait for access to our freight exchange to be unlocked, typically within 1-2 weeks.
No, unfortunately not. DAGO Express does not offer permanent employment but only individual assignments. However, we do award assignments to independent subcontractors. Having your own business and vehicle are essential prerequisites for working with us.
Yes, registration and use of our portal are completely free.
Instead of continuous workload, we offer individual transports that you can view online on a daily basis. Only when you are interested in carrying out a transport, please submit your price bid. In the event of a positive response, we will contact you by phone and assign the order.
No, each freight contract is considered as an individual assignment, and it does not create a permanent contract between DAGO Express and the courier partner.
The assignments have various destinations: regional, national, or international.
Documents, packages, building materials, exhibition goods, Euro pallets, etc.
No, having your own vehicle as a transporter is a requirement for collaboration. Only transport partners who have at least one vehicle of their own can be considered for assignments.
Yes, indeed. Registering as a transport partner with one car only is perfectly acceptable. Small packages or letters can be easily transported with a car.
Typically, the review should be completed within 1-2 weeks after uploading the documents.
No, personal appearance is not necessary. After registration and uploading your documents, we will review them and then activate you as a transport partner. From that point, you can submit bids for transport orders and accept orders through the website.
It's as simple as this: Click here and then fill out the registration form.
1. Log in with your account.
2. Submit your best offer for an open trip under "Available Transports."
3. In case of a positive response, we will contact you by phone and assign the order.
When assigning orders, reliability is our top priority. Of course, the offered price also plays a role in the decision.
Current average (net) prices:
- Up to 40 km: approximately €1.50 - €1.80 per km
- 41 - 100 km: approximately €0.65 - €0.85 per km
- Over 100 km: approximately €0.45 - €0.70 per km
Initially, all incoming offers are collected and then reviewed. You can expect the assignment to take place on the day before or the day of pickup. An exception is for orders where pickup occurs on the weekend or Monday morning; in that case, you can expect the assignment on Friday or no later than Monday morning.
Once you are registered and activated, you can log in to our portal. In the "Available Transports" section, you can find all available transport orders and submit bids for them. If you are to be awarded an order, our team will contact you immediately by phone.

Our team takes care of assigning transport orders. You will receive a phone call to confirm the award. Afterwards, we will send you a confirmation email containing relevant information about your transport order. You can also view your orders online.
If you wish to submit a new bid for the same order but with a different price, you need to withdraw the previous bid and submit a new one.
No, with our assignments, you are only allowed to transport the specified goods for that particular order. Each order is assigned to a specific vehicle.
Freight carrier insurance covers damages to cargo that occur during transport. It protects the owner of the cargo from financial losses that can result from damage, loss, or theft of goods. This insurance is particularly beneficial when transporting valuable goods with a high risk of loss or damage.
You can find freight carrier insurance, for example, at insureQ:

Yes, freight carrier insurance and carrier insurance refer to the same product. It provides coverage for cargo throughout the entire transport. A coverage amount of €50,000 is recommended for standard goods transport. In contrast, vehicle liability insurance only covers damage to your own and other vehicles, not the goods transported within them.
Business liability insurance, on the other hand, covers risks for business owners and protects you in cases where employees of a business cause damage to third parties or their property in a professional context. This includes personal and property damage, as well as financial losses resulting directly from personal and property damage.
Business registration is required whenever you want to officially and legally engage in independent work. When starting a self-employed venture, you must register this business with the relevant authority. You will receive a business registration certificate after the registration, which allows you to collaborate with us.
To obtain a business registration, you need to schedule an appointment with the local trade or regulatory office. You will need to provide all relevant information for your business during the appointment. After the registration, you will receive a business license, which allows you to collaborate with us.
It is recommended to always carry a blank CMR (Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road) in such cases. The recipient can then fill out and sign the form at the loading location. Blank CMR forms can be ordered online.
Note: If no documents are found at the loading location, you must independently complete a CMR form and have it signed by the recipient. This proof will be necessary for the release of your invoice later.
If you anticipate that you will be late, please contact us immediately. Our team will then get in touch with the loading or unloading location to coordinate and support the smooth process.
If a shipment is damaged during transport, we expect you to inform us promptly. Document the damage with a photo and send it to mail@dagoexpress.de. You can also submit the documentation of the damage to us via email along with the photo. You can also easily contact us by phone.

If the courier partner's company is not based in Germany, the reverse charge procedure applies. In this case, the recipient of the service bears the tax burden. DAGO Express GmbH is the recipient of the service, as our transport partners provide a service to DAGO Express, namely the transport of goods. Therefore, when invoicing, the courier partner should only invoice the net amount for the transport order and not include value-added tax (VAT).
Small business owners do not have to, and in fact, should not separately list VAT according to § 19 UStG (German Value Added Tax Act). Only the net amount should appear on the invoice.
The proof of delivery, also known as a CMR document, confirms that a delivery has occurred at a specific time to a named recipient. This type of document is often used in logistics and freight management. It documents the initial delivery status and later confirms the proper delivery. Without this documentation, the recipient cannot determine whether damage to the goods occurred during pickup or during transport. The proof of delivery is also commonly referred to as "POD," which stands for "Proof of Delivery."
No, we require the corresponding proof of delivery for billing an order.
Yes, you can easily change or edit your vehicle data in your profile under "VEHICLE FLEET."
