Compare indicative in-house logistics costs and an external operating range. Five inputs give an immediate cost breakdown before you contact us. Print the result or save it as PDF using your browser.
The initial result appears immediately. No contact details are required and no inputs are transmitted.
Guidance, not a quote. The calculation uses disclosed planning ranges. Item dimensions, master data, destinations and peaks only become binding after a detailed review.
The model includes space, people, systems, handling and campaign peaks. The external range is a market and operating model, not a PROWERB price.

Change one input at a time to compare scenarios. The displayed range is a planning estimate; the methodology below explains what is included.
The in-house side combines space and infrastructure, people and peak staffing, systems and processes, ongoing handling and campaign preparation. The external value is a calculation range based on market and operating assumptions for the same inputs — not a PROWERB price or an individual quote. Goods value, procurement, specific carrier contracts, item dimensions, destinations and special cases are excluded.
Export opens your browser's print dialog. It includes the currently visible inputs, result rows and assumptions; no email address or later follow-up is required.
For the manufacturer of heating and climate technology, PROWERB runs promotional-products logistics in ongoing operations: standardized order call-offs from the warehouse, goods receipt and inventory management, shipment tracking, exception handling. Almost two decades, several thousand transactions, no campaign business. The case shows what outsourcing replaces in continuous operation: your own space, your own dispatch staff, your own system upkeep.
It is an indicative comparison, not a quote. Changing an input immediately changes its related result rows; the assessment only becomes binding after the concrete data is checked.
It includes space and infrastructure, people and peak staffing, systems and processes, ongoing handling and campaign preparation. It excludes goods value, procurement, specific carrier contracts, item dimensions, destinations and special cases.
There's no flat threshold. What matters is campaign share, assortment breadth and peak load: someone running a promotion twice a year calculates differently than a ongoing operation with daily order call-offs. The calculation maps both profiles.
The calculation runs in the browser. No email address is needed for the result, export or PDF, and it does not trigger a follow-up.
The pricing page explains how a quote at PROWERB comes together. This calculation flips the perspective: it quantifies what your current operation costs — and makes both comparable.
Send us your assortment, volume and campaign plan — you'll get a concrete calculation instead of a price list. The framework for this is on the pricing page and in the cost guides.
