Dedicated run to Germany
Germany is CuraTrans' most important destination outside the Netherlands, and that is no coincidence. Our base in 's-Heerenberg sits practically on the border, right next to the A3 towards Emmerich. We collect your shipment wherever it is, and thanks to that location the driver is often across the border within a few minutes on a run to Germany.
The distance to your destination in Germany varies a lot. Border towns such as Emmerich and Kleve are less than a quarter of an hour away, you reach the Ruhr area in about an hour and a half, and for a direct run to Cologne count on around 150 kilometres. Düsseldorf is about 100 kilometres away, and for the longer runs, such as to Munich, you end up at around 700 kilometres one way. Whatever the distance, the principle stays the same: collected urgently, delivered directly, at a fixed price agreed in advance.
For German destinations we regularly carry pallets, machine parts and documents, exactly the kind of cargo where extra handling along the way is not an option. Because Germany and the Netherlands are both in the EU, you do not have to count on customs or extra paperwork at the border. No queue at a border post, no toll hassle, just keep driving.
You are also in the right place for an express courier to Germany: with express we collect your shipment within an hour, with a guarantee and a surcharge, and without express, collection usually still works the same day, without a guarantee. That applies equally to a run just across the border to Emmerich or Kleve and to a long run right across Germany. We are available day and night, and your shipment is insured from loading at your site to unloading at the destination.

Frequently asked questions
Here you will find answers to the questions customers ask us most often.
How quickly can a courier leave for Germany?
With express, the driver is with you within an hour, with a guarantee and a surcharge (we discuss the amount when you make your request). Without express, collection usually still works the same day, only then without a guarantee. We are available day and night, including at weekends.
Is customs or extra paperwork needed within the EU?
No. Germany and the Netherlands are both in the EU, so you need no customs documents or border checks for your shipment. The van simply drives on, without any delay at the border.
Can you also drive to Emmerich or Kleve, just across the border?
Certainly. Our region is right next to Emmerich and Kleve, which makes this one of the shortest runs we drive. For these destinations you can often have a driver on the road within an hour of your request.
What does a direct run to Germany cost?
Our rate is €1.25 per kilometre. For a short run just across the border, to Emmerich or Kleve for example, you arrive at roughly €45 as an indication. For destinations further away such as the Ruhr area, Cologne or Düsseldorf, this increases with the distance. This is an indication: we always confirm the final price when you make your request, before the run is scheduled.
What is the maximum that fits in the van (500 kg / 1 euro pallet)?
Our Volkswagen Caddy has room for 1 euro pallet up to a maximum of 500 kilograms in total. If your shipment fits within those dimensions, it goes along in a single run.
