Personal and commercial shipments are commonly sent from the United States to Romania. European residents also frequently order goods from American websites for delivery by mail. In either situation, logistics companies handle the shipping. To ensure smooth delivery from the United States to Romania, on time, and in compliance with international customs regulations, it’s important to choose a reliable and experienced partner. TRT Express meets these requirements.
One of the main requirements in cargo transportation is ensuring the safety of the contents. Therefore, it’s important to pack your parcel properly. For those planning to ship a parcel to Romania from the USA, here are some recommendations:
- Use boxes made of durable corrugated cardboard;
- Fill any gaps with cushioning material: foam, bubble wrap, or kraft paper;
- Fragile items should be individually wrapped in soft material.
Seal the box seams well with wide tape, and protect any protruding or sharp corners with additional cushioning.
The waiting time for your shipment depends primarily on the chosen shipping method. The fastest method is air freight. Delivery takes 7 to 14 days, but the cost of shipping services is higher.
A cheaper option is shipping by sea. However, the wait time is longer – 4-7 weeks.
TRT Express offers door-to-door or post office delivery. We ship from the USA to Romania from our warehouse in the United States. Parcels can be sent by mail, courier, or ordered from our website.
Next, the following processes are performed to prepare the cargo for transportation:
- Warehouse inspection, during which dimensions are verified and contents are checked;
- Customs paperwork is processed;
- Consolidation – Consolidation of multiple parcels into a single box;
- shipment to a port or airport for transatlantic transportation.
We also offer warehouse packing services, where we will select the right size box to optimize shipping costs.
TRT Express has extensive experience organizing cargo transportation from the USA to Europe. The entire process is simplified for customers: simply register the shipment on our website, specify the exact address and dimensions, pay for shipping, and deliver it to our warehouse. The advantages of shipping with TRT Express also include:

The cost is calculated individually. The calculation takes into account:
- Weight: volumetric and actual;
- Box dimensions;
- Insurance;
- Additional warehouse services.
The price also depends on the delivery method. Sea freight is cheaper, but the delivery time is several weeks. It is suitable for all types of cargo, including heavy and large ones. Air shipping to Romania from the US is more expensive, but it takes just a few days. You can calculate prices on our website.
The import process is governed by EU regulations. To ensure delivery from the US is completed on time and to avoid problems at customs, you must indicate the full value of the parcel. VAT and additional duties are calculated based on the product price.
Customs may sometimes request proof of the product price, so we recommend keeping receipts and invoices until the package is delivered to the recipient.
Overall, the entire process of sending parcels from the US to Romania with TRT Express is simple and accessible. We guarantee safe transportation and provide reliable customs support.
