Vehicle transport for reconditioning companies
Feed your workshop and reship prepared vehicles — across Europe, with our own fleet, delivered directly and with no intermediate storage.
Spedition HTL GmbH (Düsseldorf, founded 2014) moves cars and light commercial vehicles on open car carriers across Europe; on every consignment HTL remains the contractual carrier, liable under the CMR, including when a certified partner drives.
Logistics built for reconditioning companies
Reconditioning centre, smart repair, cosmetic or mechanical preparation: your business relies on a steady flow of vehicles in and out, with no downtime.
Spedition HTL has driven its own car carriers since 2014 and delivers directly, with no detour through a storage yard — your vehicles arrive and leave at the right time. You deal with the carrier, not a broker, and our team coordinates in English, German and French with your suppliers.
Reconditioning imposes a particular timing constraint: a vehicle delivered too early clogs the workshop, delivered too late it shifts the whole chain. So we align collections with your workshop schedule, not ours.
Why reconditioning companies choose HTL
Contractual carrier, not a broker
Five car carriers are ours and run with our own drivers; the rest of the planning — around a hundred trucks depending on demand — goes out with certified partners we know by name. Either way HTL remains the contractual carrier and answers under CMR. A broker passes your transport to a third party and steps out of the contract.
A family business since 2014
A family tradition in car transport since 2014, on the DE, FR, BE, NL and DK corridors. Native French-German team: with a German seller we speak German, with no translation in between.
Round trip to the workshop, organised
Bringing vehicles in for reconditioning, then sending them back out once ready: we handle both directions, often on the same tour, which avoids an empty run and brings down the cost of both moves.
Freshly prepared vehicles
A vehicle coming out of reconditioning must not leave marked. Direct transport, no intermediate storage, and a signed condition report at departure and arrival.

From a single vehicle to large volumes (FTL), we adapt the service to your pace.
