Heavy and out-of-gauge transport to Poland
Poland is an important location for steel construction, wind energy, industry and infrastructure. Special transports need a Polish permit in addition to the German one; coordination at the border crossing is part of the planning.
What matters
- Polish permit
- Own permit with conditions for the Polish section.
- Border crossing
- Change from German to Polish permit and, where applicable, escort.
- Projects
- Wind farms, steel construction, power plants and infrastructure.
- Intra-EU
- No customs.
Planning questions
We clarify these points before quoting – the earlier they are known, the more precise the plan.
- Where in Poland?
- Dimensions and weight?
- Is there a preferred border crossing?
- Which time window?
- Who is the contact at destination, and in which language?
What we need from you
