COVERAGE

Twenty-seven countries.
Zero customs posts.

We operate inside the European Union only. That is a decision, not a limitation: no T1, no NCTS, no TIR carnets and no unplannable hours at a border.

Times are for a two-driver crew. With a single driver add roughly a day.

How to read the table

The times are ramp to ramp with TWO drivers — that is how express freight moves. A double crew allows up to 21 hours of driving in a 30-hour window under Reg. 561/2006, and a 3.5 t van averages around 80 km/h including fuel stops.

With a single driver, add roughly a day. He is entitled to 9 hours of driving per day (10 twice a week) followed by 11 hours of rest — the law is not negotiable and we do not pretend otherwise.

The hours are door to door, loading and unloading included. They do not include waiting caused at the ramp — if the consignee opens the warehouse at 6 a.m. on Monday, that belongs in the plan, not in the delay.

Why the route is longer than the shortest one

The shortest way west from Plovdiv runs through Serbia. We do not use it. We route via Ruse, Bucharest, Arad, Hungary and Austria — 150 to 300 km more, but zero customs formalities: no T1, no NCTS, no carnet and no queue whose length nobody can predict.

Since 1 January 2025 Bulgaria’s land borders are inside Schengen too. In practice that means the van stops at no border post at all between the ramp in Plovdiv and the ramp in Ingolstadt.

How far we go and where we stop

Regular lanes: Germany, Austria, Italy and Czechia. On these lanes we have a van moving almost daily and return freight in both directions.
The entire European Union: Twenty-seven member states. Outside the regular lanes we run on request — only the outbound leg has freight, and the price shows it.
Outside the EU — no: We do not run via Serbia, North Macedonia, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Türkiye or Norway. We keep no customs agent and will not learn on your freight.
Islands: Ireland, Malta and Cyprus — on request only, with the ferry booked in advance. Transit time depends on a timetable, not on us.
