UK ↔ Europe road freight
Transport UK – the Netherlands
The Netherlands is the UK's gateway to the Continent: the Rotterdam and Venlo logistics hubs, Dutch distributors and European fulfilment centres. We move pallets, part loads and full trucks between Great Britain and the Netherlands with customs handled on both sides, and the same lane in reverse for Dutch shippers delivering to England.

Fulfillment Services for eCommerce & B2B Growth Customs and documents
Every movement between Great Britain and the EU is an export and an import. We prepare or coordinate the UK export declaration, the EU import declaration or a T1 transit document, the GMR for the Goods Vehicle Movement Service at Dover and Eurotunnel, and the safety and security declarations. You provide the commercial invoice, the packing list and the EORI numbers of both parties; goods of animal or plant origin also need the health or phytosanitary certificate and a border control post on the route.

Frequently asked questions
How long does transport from the UK to the Netherlands take?
A dedicated van or truck delivers within 24 hours via Dover–Calais or Eurotunnel; groupage pallets take 1–2 working days from collection. The same applies from the Netherlands to the UK.
Can I send one pallet from the Netherlands to England?
Yes. Our groupage service starts from a single pallet, with export and import customs included in the price, so Dutch shippers do not need a UK customs agent.
What documents are needed for UK–Netherlands transport?
Commercial invoice, packing list, EORI numbers of the exporter and importer, and a CMR consignment note. We handle the export and import declarations and the GMR. Food, plants and animal products also need SPS certificates.
Do you deliver to fulfilment centres and retailers in the Netherlands?
Yes — including booked slots at Venlo, Tilburg and Rotterdam distribution centres and delivery to end customers for e-commerce brands.
