The Cargo Brothers (TCB) performs pickup directly from the yards of the major European vehicle auction operators (Copart UK, IAAI EU, Manheim Germany, BCA UK, Auction Direct) and ships the won vehicles door-to-door to your Romanian address

After Brexit, car shipping between Romania and the United Kingdom requires customs clearance on both sides (UK export + Romanian import). The Cargo Brothers (TCB) handles the full end-to-end process: pickup in the UK, road transport via Eur

Sea freight from Constanța can save 40-60% per ton vs road on the same route — but only when cargo volume justifies the container and the timeline accepts 10-14 days. Here is when to choose sea over road.

Air freight from Romania is not the cheapest option — it is the option for cargo where time is more valuable than money. Here is when air actually beats sea and road, and what makes the price worth it.

Rail freight between Romania and Europe is the option most companies dismiss too early because they only see "slower than truck". The 2026 reality on the right corridors: 20-30% cheaper than road and 70% fewer CO2 emissions — but only if all five conditions are met.
