Do you ship Varėna home textiles to Western Europe? Yes. Bed linen, blankets and pillows fill a curtainsider by volume long before its weight limit. A checked partner carrier takes them west through Poland. Write the carton or pallet count and the buyer’s address in your request, and we plan the trailer. 2. Do you transport bottled water from Varėna? Yes. Bottled water on pallets is a heavy load, so we check each pallet’s weight against the roughly 24 tonnes a standard trailer takes. We deliver it to Lithuanian distribution centres and to buyers in neighbouring countries. Tell us the pallet count and the weight per pallet. 3. Is Varėna better served from Vilnius or from Kaunas? From Vilnius. Varėna is about 82 km from Vilnius on the highway to Druskininkai, and about 130 km from Kaunas. For Varėna firms, the closest big warehouses are in Vilnius. So loads from Varėna usually run through Vilnius, then west on the A1 to Kaunas or Klaipėda. 4. Do you collect timber in Varėna municipality? Yes, packed or strapped timber and wood products from sawmills and yards. With forest on 68.9% of the land, wood is a natural local load. Our curtainsiders do not take loose logs from the forest, which need timber trucks with cranes. ## Sources (4) 1. [VLE encyclopaedia: Varėna](https://www.vle.lt/straipsnis/varena/) 2.
