CAROVIA car carrier truck transporting vehicles on a French motorway

Vehicle transport
across France and Europe

Vehicle transport by car transporter, individually or in groupage, with regular lines across France, Europe and the United Kingdom.

A transport solution adapted to every vehicle

CAROVIA organises the collection and delivery of vehicles through its network of partner carriers in France and Europe. Every vehicle transport request is studied individually: route, vehicle type and constraints.

Groupage transport

Grouping several vehicles on the same car transporter optimises the cost of car transport by truck.

Individual transport

A dedicated solution is arranged according to the constraints, the vehicle and the requested deadline.

Secure transport

Organisation and monitoring of the vehicle from collection through to delivery.

These solutions cover running vehicles and, depending on loading options, non-running vehicles.

Allow 3 to 7 days on our regular lines, depending on the route and truck loading.

Vehicle transport in France & Europe

CAROVIA organises vehicle transport by car transporter in France and across Europe, with groupage, dedicated or enclosed solutions depending on the vehicle, the route and the required timeline. Through our European transport network, we arrange collection and delivery on the main French and international corridors.

Groupage transport, an optimised solution

Groupage transport carries several vehicles on the same car transporter, optimising the cost of transport.

It is particularly suitable when collection and delivery dates allow some flexibility.

CAROVIA plans loads according to the routes and availability of its transport partners in France and Europe.

Optimised price

Transport shared on compatible routes.

European network

Collection in France and many European countries.

Flexibility

Organisation according to loading availability and the required timeline.

Our regular car transporter lines

Our 8–10 place car transporters run on regular fixed-date lines: Rotterdam–Brussels–Lille–Marseille–Nice in both directions, Nice–Bordeaux and Nice–Madrid. Unlike a standard groupage network where you wait for a truck to fill up, every week a structured collection circuit picks up and delivers vehicles by lot or by unit, from 1 to 10 vehicles, at the most optimised rates.

Capacity

1 to 10 vehicles per truck

Regular lines

Fixed dates, both directions

Insurance

Comprehensive up to €1,000,000

Frequently asked questions about vehicle transport

How much does it cost to transport a car in France?

The price of car transport in France depends on the route, the vehicle type, the transport mode (groupage or individual) and truck availability over the period. Every request receives a free, personalised quote.

How much does it cost to transport a car in Europe?

For European car transport, the price varies according to the destination country, distance, vehicle type and the chosen solution (groupage on a car transporter or dedicated truck). We provide a quote based on your exact request.

How do I transport a car from a European country to France?

CAROVIA organises international vehicle transport from anywhere in Europe: the vehicle is collected by a partner carrier, transported by car transporter on a regular or dedicated line, then delivered to the agreed address in France.

Do you transport non-running vehicles?

Yes, depending on the loading options of the car transporter. Non-running vehicles require specific loading equipment: this is confirmed when your quote is prepared.

Which European countries do you serve?

We organise vehicle transport to and from France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Austria, the United Kingdom, the Nordic countries and Central & Eastern Europe. Other destinations are possible on request.

How long does it take to transport a car?

The timeframe depends on the route, truck availability and the chosen transport type (groupage or individual). Transport on a regular line is generally organised faster than a dedicated long-distance transport. The exact timeframe is stated in your quote.

Do you offer vehicle transport between France and the United Kingdom?

Yes, we organise UK car transport in both directions, on a car transporter. To learn more, see our dedicated page on transport between France and the United Kingdom. Learn more

What is the difference between individual and groupage vehicle transport?

In groupage transport, several vehicles are loaded onto the same car transporter: the cost is optimised and the departure follows a regular line. In individual transport, a truck is dedicated to your vehicle according to your constraints and deadline.

Which regular lines do you operate with car transporters?

Our 8–10 place car transporters run on fixed dates between Rotterdam, Brussels, Lille, Marseille and Nice in both directions, as well as from Nice to Bordeaux and from Nice to Madrid. Outside these lines, we charter dedicated trucks to all destinations in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, Spain, Sweden and Norway.
