I manage the Tesla Motors account for Bosch in Europe and we ship and install the equipment needed in all their workshops, over 125 so far
We typically ship goods in three articulated vehicles in one large delivery and our carriage costs using German carriers are often criticised.. Tesla typically use Polish companies and they much cheaper
We asked them to ship a vehicle lift once and it arrived in Milton Keynes in a Transit with two Polish lads who had driven for a couple of days at least to drop it off.... We would have sent it as a part of a consolidated consignment with our carrier which would have been slower and more expensive....
The customer doesn't care how the part gets delivered generally or whether the driver has a tie on so it's definitely cut-throat
