Why do two similar moves have different prices? Because price depends not only on kilometres: volume, service type, access and season all play a part.

Distance drives transport

As a 2026 reference, international road transport ranges from €0.32 to €0.85 per km for shared shipments. For a full move, the cost per cubic metre falls as the load grows.

Volume rules

You pay for space, not weight. Going from 15 to 30 m³ does not double the price, but it clearly increases it because you need a larger truck and more loading time.

What makes a move more expensive

  • High floors without a lift.
  • Pianos, safes and artworks.
  • Full packing and furniture assembly.
  • Summer or end-of-month dates.
  • Parking permits at origin and destination.

How to save safely

Be flexible with dates, reduce volume before moving, pack non-fragile items yourself and share a truck if you are not in a hurry. Never cut corners on inventory, sealing and insurance.
