How Much Does International Road Haulage Cost Across Europe?

International road haulage across Europe ranges from £0.50 to £2.00 per kilometre, depending on delivery distance, freight type, load size, and delivery urgency. FTL transport costs £1.20 to £2.80 per kilometre on longer European routes, while LTL services are more cost-effective for smaller loads, priced per pallet or cubic metre. Specialist services such as refrigerated haulage, heavy equipment transport, and abnormal loads may require additional permits, compliance handling, or escort arrangements, which can influence overall pricing.
