Preparing your Car for Transport

Whether its Warsaw or Wroclaw, getting a car transported to Poland can be a complicated affair, but with a bit of forethought and planning you can get your vehicle there safely. There are a few options open to you when it comes to getting car transport to Poland, you can drive it yourself or hire a professional car transportation service.

Pre-transport Checks

Prior to car delivery to Poland you should run a few checks:

Documents: When you’re transporting a car to Poland you will need proof of ownership and registration documents, proof of insurance and the bull of sale. You can only import a car that is registered to the current owner.

Wash and inspect: Washing your car will let you notice any damage that is already on it as well as protect it from dust-related damage during transport.

Running: If you are moving an older model then this is very important, you need to makes sure the car is roadworthy as this will dictate which car transport methods are open to you.

Taxation: If you’re a citizen of the EU then importing a car to Poland won’t impose extra duties or import taxes, although new cars less than 6 months old are not exempt from taxes. Road tax in Poland doesn’t come in the form of a tax disc, rather it’s added onto the price of fuel so your UK discs may only be useful as coasters.

Additional considerations:you are not permitted to sell, loan or rent your car for 12 months after its importation.

Car Transport Services

There are a couple of methods of car transport to Poland, and the first thing you need to decide is whether you are going to drive it or hire a car transporter.

DIY: Maybe the most enjoyable way to transport your car to Poland is to drive it there. This can cost a lot in fuel, but you can make an enjoyable trip of it.

Trade Plate Driver: If you need to import a car to Poland then you can hire a driver to bring your car to you. This is useful if you’re participating in an online car auction, but can be slightly tricky to arrange when there is shipping involved.

Single Trailer: If you’re importing a non-runner or an antique car then you might wish to transport it on an individual trailer. This can be the safest method of car transport if using a covered trailer, it is also the most expensive however.

Multiple Car Transport: Transporting your car with a large commercial style transporter is often the cheapest method of importing an automobile. Bear in mind that these larger vehicles cannot offer a door-to-door delivery service for your car.

Shipping: If coming from the UK then your car will need to travel by ship at some point (unless you intend it to be flown there!) You have two options, container shipping or Roll-on Roll-off. Ro-Ro services are exactly what they sound like, you drive the car onto the ship and drive it off again.

When arranging a car transporter, make sure that you arrange pick up and collection points explicitly to avoid confusion. Different services will operate different policies, so ensure that you discuss the move thoroughly with any prospective firms.

When Examining Car Delivery to Poland Options

If you’re hiring a car importer to get your vehicle to Poland then make sure that they’ve got the proper credentials before you commit:

Insurance: International car transporters should have comprehensive insurance cover, make sure that they have a policy that covers all the possible angles.

Association: Not essential, but if the car transporter is a member of a professional organisation such as The Association of European Vehicle Logistics then you can be assured of a higher level of service.

Finalising Your Car Transport in Poland

If you can’t drive your car to Poland yourself, or are already a resident that needs an import, then finding a car transporter to move your motor can be long-winded. Finding car transport quotes to Poland means searching many web pages and phoning up for lots of estimates.

With Shiply though, car transporters can come to you!

When you need Polish car transport all you need to do is list the details of your move on Shiply, where it’s going & when you need it moved.

Available transporters can then offer their transport estimates and will compete to carry out your car delivery. You can compare car delivery to Poland services on price as well as feedback accrued from other jobs they’ve completed on Shiply.

Your Polish Car

Whether you’re in Krakow or Poznan when your car arrives, you should always do some basic checks:

Check the car’s mileage; this should correspond to the distances from origin to port to destination (plus a little leeway).

Inspect the car to make sure that it has not been scratched or otherwise damaged during transportation. If you find any issues then you should notify the driver immediately, who should be staying around for the post-transit checks if they came over to Poland with the car.

Staying in Poland

- If you’re relocating to Poland then you should register and tax your vehicle properly.

- Tell the DVLA you’re moving – you need a certificate of export.
- Declare the import within 24 hours of arrival to relevant customs officials
- Pay your customs and registration fees
- Apply for tax exemptions (which may be available to retirees or students)
- Get some Polish registration plates

Once your car move is sorted out and you’re free to cruise around Poland, please remember to come back to Shiply and leave feedback for the service you used. Feedback helps make our site a better experience for all users.

When Will I Receive A Quote?

You will typically start to receive quotes within 30 minutes.

If your delivery is urgent, you can try our 'featured delivery' feature which moves your listing to the top of the search page for couriers.

Does Shiply Provide Packing Materials?

If your item requires packing materials or extra care then you should make sure this is highlighted in your listing and discussed with any transport provider whose quote you are considering. Couriers on Shiply are able to provide all levels of service and can help pack your items, just ensure you inform them of your needs.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Transport providers will almost always tie up an item in the transport vehicle, as the risk of damage from moving around during transit is high. You should always confirm safety precautions and packing needs with transport providers before accepting a quote.

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Yes, items can be taken upstairs if needed, and can also be assembled. Transport providers on Shiply are happy to provide these services, but you should ensure that you are mentioning these requirements in your listings as it may mean a second person is required for the move.

Can I Travel With My Goods?

The majority of transport providers on Shiply are only insured for the transportation of goods, however, some are also able to take people. If you need to travel with your goods, make sure to mention this in your listing and highlight this to any courier who quotes on your listing.

What If I Need To Cancel My Booking?

If you have accepted a quote and paid the deposit but wish to cancel the delivery, then you should first inform your chosen transport provider that you no longer require the delivery. You should then contact us at to have your deposit refunded.

Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?

If you have not yet accepted a quote then you are able to change the address of your listing. Note that editing details of your listing after publishing will result in active quotes being voided, so you will have to wait for new quotes to come in. If you have already accepted a quote and need to change the address, please let your transport provider know and contact us at .
