In short

A rack goes down and a service contract is running: the spare part must arrive before the SLA expires. We drive disks, cards, power supplies, switches and complete servers from Paris stock to data centres across France and Europe — Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Geneva, Zurich — with no transhipment.

Why a dedicated vehicle for this type of goods

IT infrastructure is the field where the cost of downtime is easiest to quantify: contractual penalties, halted production, unavailable customer service. Service level commitments are counted in hours, and a parts stock in Paris is useless if the failed site is in Lyon or Frankfurt.

Our long-distance IT delivery bridges your stock, your distributor or your manufacturer and the server room. The hardware travels antistatic, in its original packaging, in a dry air-conditioned cabin — which matters for disks and cards sensitive to humidity and shock. We deliver to Île-de-France data centres, to regional campuses and to the major European hubs.

Frequently asked questions — High-tech & IT

Answers to the questions our clients ask before entrusting us with a job.

What is an IT delivery under SLA?
An SLA is a contractual commitment to restore service within a set time, often 4 or 8 hours. An IT delivery under SLA means driving the spare part — disk, card, power supply, switch, server — from stock to the server room before that deadline expires. A dedicated vehicle is the only mode that leaves immediately, at night and at weekends, without depending on a flight or a freight cut-off.
Can you meet a 4-hour SLA in the regions?
Within about 350 km of Île-de-France (Lille, Reims, Orléans, Rouen, Le Havre, Tours, Dijon), yes: departure within 30 to 60 minutes then a direct run. Beyond that we meet 8 to 12 hour SLAs to Lyon, Bordeaux, Frankfurt or Brussels.
Is the hardware carried in antistatic conditions?
The hardware travels in its original manufacturer packaging, antistatic bag and foam included. The cabin is dry and air-conditioned, with no humidity or rain exposure, unlike two-wheeler transport.
Do you deliver inside data centres?
We deliver to the data centre's reception desk or security post, which is the standard handover point. If your smart hands provider is to receive it, give us their name: the handover is made to that person, with a time-stamped photo.
How long to deliver a server part from Paris to Frankfurt?
About 6 hours door to door. A 20:00 departure allows intervention as soon as the overnight maintenance window opens, without depending on a flight or a freight cut-off.
Do you operate at night and at weekends?
Yes, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. As maintenance windows mostly fall at night and at weekends, that is our busiest slot for this type of job.
Do you carry complete racks or heavy equipment?
A Mercedes V-Class van takes several rack servers, switches and UPS units up to about 2 metres long. For a complete assembled rack or palletised equipment we use a light truck — give us the weight and dimensions for the quote.
What does an IT delivery to Lyon or Amsterdam cost?
Roughly €1,227 for Lyon and €1,319 for Amsterdam one way, on the kilometre rate of €2.63/km. The calculator gives the exact estimate from the two real addresses.
Can you chain several data centres on one job?
Yes: one job can serve two or three rooms along the same route, for example Roubaix then Brussels then Amsterdam. The additional kilometres are included in the estimate.
Do you guarantee the confidentiality of the data carried?
The hardware stays sealed and in the driver's sole custody, with no warehouse stop and no third-party handling. A written confidentiality undertaking can be signed before the job.
Do you collect replaced hardware for return to the manufacturer?
Yes, on the same job or on a dedicated return run: we collect the faulty equipment and take it back to your stock, your workshop or the manufacturer's collection point.
What if nobody can receive it on arrival?
The driver calls you before arriving. Depending on your instruction, they wait on site at the prefecture hourly rate, hand the goods to a person you designate, leave them at a secure reception or return with them. Nothing is ever left without your approval, and the return trip is only invoiced if it takes place.
Do you also run the route the other way?
Yes, all our routes are operated in both directions at the same kilometre rate. We collect in the French regions or in Europe and deliver in Île-de-France, in particular to the Roissy CDG cargo areas, La Défense and Paris head offices. Just give us the collection address: only the distance actually driven counts.

What a taxi carries — and what it does not

We are a prefecture-licensed taxi service, not a freight company. Saying so plainly saves you a pointless call, and saves us accepting a job we could not honour.

✅ What we take

  • Documents, original deeds, data media
  • Parcels and cases that can be handled without lifting equipment
  • Flight cases, trunks, garment bags on hangers, jewellery boxes
  • Suitcases and luggage — up to six to eight pieces
  • Sealed insulated boxes supplied by the sender
  • Parts and cartons up to about 1.80 m long

❌ What belongs with a carrier

  • Full pallets and shrink-wrapped goods
  • Machines, engines, bulky furniture
  • Anything requiring a tail lift, pallet truck or forklift
  • Dangerous goods falling under ADR
  • House moves, even partial ones
  • Shipments requiring a goods transport licence

If your need falls outside this scope we tell you on the first call and point you to a suitable carrier. A taxi that costs you half a day is not doing you a favour.

An urgent delivery to arrange right now?

One call is enough to start the job. We drive 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, anywhere in France and Europe — no transfer of goods, no sorting hub, no deposit.
