Our artwork shipping service exists for artwork shipping bound for Denmark: goods that need proper packing and export preparation before they travel, not a bare label and a conveyor belt.
Routing runs via Harwich–Hook of Holland or Eurotunnel, then through the Netherlands and Germany, then the E45 north and the Great Belt or Øresund bridges as required. Transit is typically 2–3 days from mainland Great Britain, and roughly 700 road miles from London to Copenhagen.
Customs paperwork for Denmark is covered further down this page.

How we pack for the Denmark route
The crossing matters. Harwich–Hook of Holland or Eurotunnel, then through the Netherlands and Germany means the load is restrained for road and sea movement, and anything moisture sensitive gets a barrier layer before it is wrapped.
- Glass taped and faced, corners protected, surface never compressed
- Foam-lined travel frames or cases for valuable works
- Work carried and loaded upright, never flat-stacked
- Moisture barrier applied for ferry and winter routes

Frequently asked questions
How long does artwork shipping to Denmark take?
Transit is typically 2–3 days, routing via Harwich–Hook of Holland or Eurotunnel, then through the Netherlands and Germany. 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 Denmark?
Guide prices for this service start at Instant Quote. Crated, high-value, oversized or time-critical consignments priced on the specifics. 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 Denmark?
Yes, you should plan for it. Export declaration and Danish import entry. Bridge tolls apply on the Great Belt and Øresund crossings and are included in the quotation. We prepare the packing list and transport documents; formal clearance is confirmed at quotation.
Do you build travel frames or cases?
For valuable or repeatedly-travelled work, yes — a reusable case is often cheaper over two or three movements than repeated soft packing. For a single journey we usually specify foam-lined protection instead.
Can you deliver to a gallery on an install date?
Yes. Tell us the install window when you request a quote and we will plan the crossing and driver hours around it rather than around ours.
