Collecting packaging Aalsmeer
You will always need a packaging card. These can be ordered from the Logistics Supplies department or the counter in the Logistic Supplies Centre (LSC) by means of an application form. You will receive a letter when your card is ready. You can then pick up the card, showing the letter and valid proof of identification.
What will change after the introduction of the new packaging system?
With the implementation of the new packaging system the following changes for you:
- The paper transaction docket (for collection and return) is being replaced by a digital version. It will contain the packaging codes and the quantities, but not the prices.
- With the new digital service 'Packaging Online', you will be able to submit packaging orders and notify returns in advance via My Royal FloraHolland or the new packaging app.
What is Packaging Online?
Via Packaging Online you can easily order packaging and announce returns digitally. You also have insight into your packaging transactions up to three months after the transaction. You decide how to arrange your transactions - via the online application (Webview) in 'My Royal FloraHolland' or via the renewed Royal FloraHolland App.
