Paris → Berlin: crossing Germany west to east
Enquiries come from the Paris region: dealer groups, remarketing platforms, auction operators, and the compounds and return yards around the city. The destination is a market of its own — Berlin absorbs used-car and rental-fleet volumes the rest of Brandenburg does not generate. On this route we work mainly with traders and remarketing professionals, rarely with a sender who has a single car to move: vehicle transport between businesses.
The route leaves France through Lorraine and the Saarland, then runs west to east across Germany via Frankfurt, Kassel and Magdeburg. Most of the distance sits in Germany, which is what makes the Maut decisive here: €0.187 to €0.473 per km depending on emission class and axle count, priced into the quote and never claimed back after delivery. No Swiss transit: this lowland corridor has no pass and no Alpine restriction.
1,055 km is beyond what a driver can cover in a single legal driving day. The job therefore takes two days including statutory rest, and that duration stays indicative: it is settled when the quote is issued. One practical point remains — the delivery address has to be reachable by a large truck and trailer, because a loaded car carrier threads into no city-centre street.
What sets the price of car transport from Paris to Berlin
What you buy here is two days of truck and driver, not a distance sliced into segments. Depreciation, wages, diesel, tolls: the cost of those two days barely moves with what stands on the deck. The price per vehicle comes out of that total, spread over the number of cars actually loaded — put differently, how full the truck runs decides the price, not the mileage a map happens to show.
The carrier has 9 slots over two decks, and a vehicle’s overall size — height, length and width together — decides which one it gets: above roughly 1,750 mm of height the upper deck is out of reach. A Polo occupies 1 slot in 9, a Golf 1 in 9, an ID.4 1 in 7, a Passat Variant 1 in 6, an ID.Buzz 1 in 4. Saying eight cars therefore tells us nothing about the truck needed.
What stays in your hands is a short list, and it weighs more than the route itself. Group your vehicles on one relation instead of dispatching each purchase on its own. Combine different heights, so a city car uses the upper deck. Allow a few days of leeway on collection, which lets us place you on a truck already committed eastwards. And send a model list, not a headcount: the whole quotation rests on it.
For a sense of scale before you request a firm price: across our whole network, prices start from €200 excl. VAT per vehicle. On Paris → Berlin, distance, the number of vehicles and the date decide how far above it — the instant estimate further down this page, already filled in with your route, gives you yours.
Contractual carrier, not a broker
47 trucks run on our planning every day with our certified partners: on every consignment HTL remains the contractual carrier, liable under CMR, including when a partner drives. Five of them are car carriers of our own, owned since 2014. A broker introduces you, hands the transport to a third party and steps out of the contract — you no longer know who answers.

Google Reviews
Without a doubt, the best transport company I have ever dealt with. Their level of customer service is truly exceptional — professional, attentive, responsive, and always available when needed. They were incredibly fast with both the collection and delivery of my car, and the whole process was smooth and hassle-free from start to finish. I couldn’t be happier with the service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and professional vehicle transport company.

An indicative estimate for Paris-Berlin appears directly on this page as soon as you enter your vehicle — no sign-up, no waiting. The final price then depends on the vehicle type, dates and options chosen, and is confirmed by email.
Allow 1 to 3 working days between collection and delivery, plus 3 to 4 days between order confirmation and collection. These times are indicative and confirmed on the quotation. For reference, this route is 1055 km and around 12h30 of driving, excluding regulatory stops and loading points.
Yes, we handle all administrative management: contact with seller/buyer, document preparation, power of attorney for vehicle handover. Our multilingual team ensures smooth communication in English, French, and German.
The power of attorney allows the seller to authorize our driver to collect the vehicle on their behalf. We prepare this document and manage all administrative formalities to simplify the transaction.
No problem: our English-French team handles the communication. We deal with the seller in French, prepare the documents and our drivers collect the vehicles with power of attorney. HTL remains the contractual carrier and answers under CMR, whether the truck is one of the five that are ours or a certified partner’s.
Yes. Every transport is covered by the carrier’s CMR liability, capped at 8.33 SDR per kilo — enough in the vast majority of cases: a wheel rim or a bumper will never cost the price of the vehicle. For a high-value vehicle we offer optional ad valorem insurance, up to €250,000 per vehicle.
Yes. At loading you receive a written confirmation and a tracking link for your shipment, with no account and no password: it places the truck within an approach zone of about 10 km and shows the kilometres left. If you would rather just ask, your contact will give you the position and the estimated delivery.
