TRT Express’s international logistics services allow us to organize cargo delivery to any distance. We can also ship parcels to Germany. We adhere to all applicable standards and regulations, eliminating any legal or customs hassles.
When shipping a parcel from the United States to Europe, it’s important to consider carrier requirements and restrictions. Standard shipping is typically calculated for a single piece, weighing up to 30 kg (in actual or volumetric weight). Some of the main rules for shipping parcels to Germany are:
- the WxHxD dimensions or the total amount must not exceed the carrier’s limits;
- pallets are used for consignments and large parcels;
- shipments weighing over 70 kg are loaded using special equipment, which is also factored into the price.
If the weight or dimensions exceed these restrictions, the shipment is considered oversized cargo, and the cost is calculated individually.
The waiting time depends on several factors. The first is the delivery method and method. For example, sea freight takes 4-8 weeks, but is also cheaper. A faster method is By air, but it is more expensive.
In addition to the chosen method, the duration of cargo delivery to Germany is also affected by seasonality and the workload of customs terminals.
Working with us guarantees that shipping parcels from the USA will be carried out carefully and under optimal conditions. We provide turnkey logistics services, eliminating the need for clients to independently complete paperwork and find ways to ship across the ocean. Other advantages of working with TRT Express include:

- transparent pricing;
- possibility of shipping by various transport services;

Furthermore, TRT Express constantly monitors updates to shipping regulations, which helps avoid customs delays, document issues, and returns to the sender.
The cost of services is determined by several factors. The cost of shipping a parcel from us to Germany is influenced by a number of parameters:
- weight: actual and volumetric;
- ordering additional services, such as insurance or reinforced packaging;
- carrier and tariff;
- season.
The most affordable option is sea shipping. However, it also takes the longest. Air freight is more expensive, but it means your shipment will arrive in just a few days.
Reliable packaging ensures your shipment won’t be damaged during transit. For those planning to ship a parcel from the USA to Germany, here are a few recommendations:
- It’s best to choose corrugated cardboard boxes for packaging;
- Secure the items inside with paper or bubble wrap;
- Securely tape the box with several layers of tape.
If you’re shipping fragile items internationally to Germany, they should be wrapped in a protective material with good shock-absorbing properties.
