Route logistics

The distance between Thessaloniki and Berlin is approximately 2,000 km, with transit time typically 5–7 working days. Most shipments are consolidated via groupage – your goods share space with other customers, reducing costs. For very large moves (above 20 m³ or 4 LDM), a dedicated truck may be needed. The chargeable size is always the greater of: actual volume (m³), actual weight (kg), loading meters (LDM), or number of pallets. For example, if your shipment is 8 m³ but weighs only 600 kg, volume determines the cost. Conversely, heavy items like machinery might trigger weight-based pricing. LDM applies to long or irregular items that consume floor space. Pallet pricing is not available on this route, so volume, weight, or LDM will be used.

How the price is calculated

The tariff tables show prices based on different measurement units. The volume table lists costs from €1031 (5 m³) to €2748 (20 m³). The weight table offers €1031 (750 kg) up to €2748 (3000 kg). LDM rates follow the same pattern: €1031 (1 LDM) to €2748 (4 LDM). Use volume if your move is bulky but light, weight if dense, LDM if items are long or wide. For a typical household, volume is the most common driver. The room estimates below are approximations: each room type is linked to an average m³ value. Remember, the final price is based on the actual dimensions, not the room type. For single items, the cost is a flat €1031 per item if shipped alone – that’s the minimum, so bundling items in a groupage load is usually cheaper.

Individual items

Each individual item (e.g., a sofa, fridge, or box) has a fixed minimum price of €1031 when shipped alone. If you have several items, it is far more economical to combine them in a groupage shipment, where the cost scales by actual volume/weight instead of per item. For moves with 2–3 items, compare the per-item total against a small groupage quote (starting at 5 m³ / €1031).

Loading and unloading in both cities

City logistics for Thessaloniki–Berlin moves are shaped by real access conditions in both cities. In Thessaloniki, central zones often combine narrow streets, restricted truck entry, and limited parking. Your driver may need a temporary parking permit, and if a building lacks an elevator, stair carries affect loading time. In Berlin, environmental zones (Umweltzone) require emission stickers, and many streets in Mitte, Kreuzberg, or Prenzlauer Berg have resident-only parking. Unloading in both cities may require booking a loading zone in advance. For truck access, we use standard 20-tonne vehicles; if your pickup or drop-off is in a pedestrian area or low-clearance street, a smaller truck or tailgate delivery could be needed. These operational factors are reflected in the real rates, which start from 1031 € for 5 m³, from 1374 € for 10 m³, from 2061 € for 15 m³, and from 2748 € for 20 m³. For rooms, a studio is from 1237 €, a one-bedroom flat from 1649 €, and larger homes are quoted individually. Always confirm access details before booking—this avoids surprises and keeps your move efficient.

Insurance

CMR insurance covers only a fraction of your cargo’s actual value, often around €8.33 per kg. That rarely covers the real cost of replacing damaged or lost household goods. Our Thessaloniki–Berlin service starts from 1031 €, but the transport price is not what you need to protect. Additional insurance covers the full invoice value against theft, fire, and damage during loading, transit, and unloading. For electronics, antiques, or consolidated items, it is almost always worth the extra premium. For cheap, durable goods, basic CMR might be enough. Ask yourself: if the entire load disappeared, would the CMR payout cover your financial loss? If not, take additional coverage. We can calculate it based on your declared value.

Customs and packing

This route runs entirely within the EU (Greece to Germany), so no customs duties or import taxes apply. You only need a standard inventory list and, for commercial goods, an EU movement certificate. Packing recommendations: use double-walled cardboard boxes for small items, wrap furniture in protective blankets and stretch film, and disassemble tables or bed frames. Label each box with its room and contents. For fragile goods, use bubble wrap and mark the box clearly. Avoid overpacking – keep boxes under 30 kg. If you share a truck, your goods stay sealed inside the vehicle; customs checks are rare. Rates start from 1031 € for 5 m³ and go up to 2748 € for 20 m³. Booking earlier ensures better vehicle space and lower handling costs.
