Netherlands postcode radius search: key facts for dispatchers
What dispatchers should know about the Netherlands postcode radius search: Postcodes, ports and truck tolls in the Netherlands at a glance.
Dutch postcodes consist of four digits and two letters, for example 3011 AB. The four digits describe an area, and the letters narrow it down to individual street sections. For radius searches and dispatching, the four digits are enough, so PLZ Profi works with around 4,000 areas. If you enter the full postcode, the search automatically uses the first four digits. More on the structure: Postal codes in the Netherlands on Wikipedia.
The Port of Rotterdam is Europe’s largest seaport, alongside Amsterdam and Schiphol Airport. Important crossings to Germany are on the A12 near Emmerich, the A1 near Bad Bentheim and the A67 near Venlo. Since July 2026, trucks over 3.5 tonnes pay a distance-based toll (vrachtwagenheffing) on motorways and some other roads, replacing the Eurovignette. Current rates and rules: Vrachtwagenheffing.
Some cities have an official name that differs from everyday use: The Hague (Den Haag) is officially ’s-Gravenhage, and Den Bosch is ’s-Hertogenbosch. The search finds every version, as well as German names such as Nimwegen, Arnheim or Herzogenbusch. You do not need to type hyphens or apostrophes.
3D load planning & loading metre calculation in real time
Plan your transport end to end: with our new 3D loading metre calculator, dispatchers and forwarders work out freight capacity, pallet spaces and payload in an interactive 3D simulation. Standard semi-trailer, mega trailer, jumbo drawbar combination, van or shipping container: you see straight away how many pallets fit on the truck and how much floor space is left.
Especially handy on a busy dispatch day: with Paste load list you bring in freight details as text or as a screenshot with Ctrl + V, straight from your clipboard. Text recognition runs locally in your browser; your image is never uploaded to a server.
Postcode search across Europe
International transport needs reliable data across borders. The radius search currently covers 10 countries and we keep adding more, so you can find the right catchment area anywhere in Europe.
