How we pack for the Lithuania route
The crossing matters. Eurotunnel or North Sea ferry, then Germany and Poland means the load is restrained for road and sea movement, and anything moisture sensitive gets a barrier layer before it is wrapped.
- Acid-free tissue and soft wrap against original surfaces
- Movement-sensitive components secured or removed
- Crating for anything with a vulnerable structure
- Climate-sensitive items packed with barrier protection against heat and damp

Frequently asked questions
How long does antique shipping to Lithuania take?
Transit is typically 3–5 days, routing via Eurotunnel or North Sea ferry, then Germany and Poland. Economy parcel and groupage services take longer because they run to a network schedule. We give you a band rather than a promise, and we tell you if your deadline is not realistic before you book.
What does it cost to ship to Lithuania?
Guide prices for this service start at £495. Blanket-wrapped, hand-loaded and delivered into the room where access allows. The final figure depends on collection location, destination, dimensions, weight, declared value, packing complexity, urgency and any special requirements.
Do I need customs paperwork for Lithuania?
Yes, you should plan for it. Export declaration and Lithuanian import entry. Relocation loads should carry a valued inventory. We prepare the packing list and transport documents; formal clearance is confirmed at quotation.
How do you protect an original finish?
Nothing adhesive touches the surface. We use tissue and soft wrap against the piece, blankets over that, and strapping only against protected areas. Where a finish is already fragile we crate rather than wrap.
Do you handle high-value single items?
Yes, and we will discuss declared value and cover levels with you before the job so expectations are clear. If the value exceeds what our standard arrangement covers, we will tell you and help you arrange specific cover.
