Transport Belgium - Germany
This is one of our shortest and most frequent runs: Antwerp, Brussels and Liège are less than three hours from our Düsseldorf base. Many loads leave in the morning and are delivered the same day.
Antwerp being one of Europe’s largest vehicle ports, much of the flow comes from terminals and port compounds to German dealerships and platforms. We load at compounds as readily as at dealerships.
On this route the German Maut applies from the border (€0.187 to €0.473 per km) and Belgium levies its own heavy-goods distance charge. Both are built into the quote. Allow 1 working day in transit after loading.
Here even the kilometre has no single price. The German Maut runs from €0.187 to €0.473 per km depending on emission class and axle count, and Belgium levies its own distance charge, region by region. Two trucks covering the same road therefore do not pay the same amount. We price by the cost of a complete trip, waiting time at the compound included, and only then spread it over the vehicles actually loaded.
On this route the loading list is known model by model before the truck even arrives — an advantage, provided you use it. The car carrier has 10 slots, the upper deck stops at around 1,750 mm, and height alone decides. A Polo takes 1 slot in 10, an ID.4 1 in 7, a Passat Variant 1 in 6, an ID.Buzz 1 in 4 — a quarter of the truck for one vehicle. A quote built on a headcount therefore tells you nothing at all.
Two habits move the figure. Send the exact list with your enquiry: on a compound collection it already exists, it only has to travel with the request. And do not pin the day down: the Germany → Belgium leg far more often runs with room to spare, and a there-and-back prices better than an isolated shipment. Our transit times stay indicative and are confirmed with the quote — which is exactly where that flexibility finds its room.
Everything you need to know about transport Belgium - Germany
Expect around 5h00 of driving on average. The overall time between pick-up and delivery depends on loading points, truck fill rate and delivery windows.
The cost of a trip is the truck, the driver, the diesel and the tolls (around 400 km on this route) and it barely changes with what is loaded. The price per car is that cost divided by the number of vehicles on board. Our carrier is worth 10 slots and height decides, not length: a Polo takes 1 slot in 10, an ID.4 1 in 7, an ID.Buzz 1 in 4. A single car on a dedicated truck is therefore the most expensive case; the same car in a full load costs a fraction. To bring the price down: consolidate several vehicles, mix the sizes, stay flexible on the date, and give the models rather than just the count. Firm quote within 2 working hours, no commitment.
Within the EU, no customs formalities. Prepare the registration certificate, a proof of ownership or invoice if applicable, and the contact details for pick-up and delivery. A CMR consignment note and a condition report are issued at collection.
You keep a responsive contact throughout the transport and an update on your vehicle’s position until delivery.
Yes. Your vehicles are covered by our insurance throughout the transport; the coverage details are specified in your quote.
