Direct transport Netherlands – Germany
The Netherlands–Germany lane is one of Europe's key trade corridors. CityFreight runs this route as a dedicated direct transport: your vehicle is loaded once and travels straight to the consignee – no transhipment, no groupage stops, no detours – with GPS tracking across the entire journey.
From a Sprinter van for urgent part loads to an articulated truck with 33 pallet spaces, we select the vehicle that matches your consignment. You receive a fixed price and a realistic delivery date up front – no surprises, no hidden surcharges.
Netherlands–Germany carries the strong port and horticulture flows from Rotterdam and the Westland into the German hinterland: container on-carriage, fresh produce and flowers, chemicals, and consumer goods. Via the A12/A3 toward the Ruhr region and the A1 to northern Germany, the route is well developed, but the conurbation at the border is dense. For port connections with fixed cut-off times and fresh shipments, the transshipment-free direct run is ideal, because no handling between terminal and loading delays the goods.
How long does a direct transport from Netherlands to Germany take?
On the Rotterdam–Berlin lane (approx. 700 km), pure driving time is approx. 8–9 hrs pure driving time. As a direct run without transhipment, your shipment arrives considerably faster than by groupage – with a two-driver crew running non-stop on request.
How much does a direct transport Netherlands–Germany cost?
The price depends on vehicle size, timing and availability on the corridor. We quote you a binding fixed price up front – with no hidden surcharges. Simply request a quote with your key shipment details.

Everything from a Sprinter van (up to approx. 1.2 t) and 7.5-tonne trucks to an articulated truck with 33 pallet spaces. For sensitive goods we can run with lashing systems, a load-securing certificate and live GPS tracking on request.
