Tips for proper use of Road Planning at APM Terminals MVII and RWG

Like other road hauliers, no doubt you are increasingly required to drop off and pick up containers at APM Terminals MVII and RWG. As you know, pre-notifying using the service Road Planning is compulsory. We notice that this is not always going smoothly. We tackle any issues which arise together with both new terminals straight away. You can also help to make every visit take place smoothly:

Only green means go
Only when all the statuses in the service Road Planning are shown green can the driver come to APM Terminals MVII and RWG. There is no point leaving sooner. Neither terminal has a desk for resolving problems on location. Avoid unnecessary journeys – only when all statuses are green, you are good to go.

Stick to the time slot
For each pre-notification for the two new container terminals, you will receive a time slot with an accompanying TAR code. Make sure your driver is aware of both. He can only visit the terminal within the time frame stated in the pre-notification (including the applicable margins). Futhermore, your driver will need the TAR code to gain access to the terminal site.

Reserve extra time for the first visit
For the first visit to both APM Terminals MVII and to RWG, the driver must have the biometric details of his left middle finger (finger vein) recorded on the CargoCard on arrival. He must also watch an instruction video on safe working. Reserve enough time for this so that your time slot is not jeopardized.
