What is NSRoute?
NSRoute is a truck route planner for Europe: enter origin, destination and vehicle, and get a truck-aware route with estimated tolls, fuel and driving restrictions plus a cost breakdown you can export as a quote PDF. It is a professional route-planning and freight-cost workspace for European road transport — from vans and HGV combinations to oversized loads. It brings vehicle dimensions, axle loads, ADR context, toll and fuel estimates, driving-ban checks and permit guidance into one inspectable workflow.
How NSRoute works

- Driver trip links without an account, hand-off to Google Maps, Waze or Sygic, and ferry crossing selection
- AI reads transport enquiries from text, images, PDF or e-mail files and fills in the route
- Free 3D load planner: pallets and cargo stacked in the trailer, loading metres and payload check, no account needed
NSRoute vs Google Maps
Google Maps does not differentiate between a car and a 40-tonne truck. It ignores bridge weight limits, tunnel height restrictions, weekend driving bans and toll costs that vary by emission class and axle count. NSRoute was built specifically for freight forwarders, fleet managers and truck drivers who need quote-ready planning estimates before every trip. Where Google Maps gives you a route, NSRoute gives you a business decision.

How is NSRoute different from Google Maps?
Google Maps treats every vehicle the same. NSRoute accounts for truck dimensions, weight limits, axle configuration, ADR restrictions, driving bans, and estimates toll and fuel costs per country — essential for freight forwarders and fleet managers.
Can I export route calculations as PDF?
Yes, on every plan including FREE: export the full cost breakdown as a PDF with tolls, fuel, driver costs, margin and route details, optionally with your company name and logo.
About NSRoute
Built by NoStressStudio with hands-on experience in European freight forwarding, oversized cargo logistics and transport technology.
NSRoute was created to solve a real problem: existing navigation tools ignore truck-specific restrictions, leaving drivers and freight forwarders to guess toll costs, risk driving ban violations, and manually calculate oversized cargo permits across dozens of countries.
We combine deep domain expertise in logistics with AI and modern software engineering to build tools that save time, reduce errors and help transport professionals make better decisions — before the truck moves.
Route calculations are estimates. Actual toll rates, permit timelines and regulations may vary. Always verify with local authorities before transport.
