Frequently Asked Questions: Greece → Italy
Do I need customs clearance within the EU?
No — goods in free circulation travel duty-free. Only Intrastat reporting for statistical purposes is required.
How long does groupage shipping take?
Palletised LTL cargo reaches Northern Italy in 4–5 days door-to-door, including cross-dock consolidation in Thessaloniki.
Can you move oversized machinery?
Yes — our project team secures permits and low-bed trailers for out-of-gauge cargo, plus escort vehicles in both countries.
Is express van service faster than air?
For loads up to 1 200 kg, an ADR-ready sprinter can cover Athens–Milan within 28 hours door-to-door — often matching air transit after handling time.
Do you offer warehouse services in Italy?
Yes — cross-dock hubs in Milan and Bologna provide short-term storage, pick & pack and final-mile distribution.
Is cargo insured automatically?
Standard CMR liability is limited to ~€11/kg. We arrange all-risk marine insurance upon request.
