Shipping Oversized Items To Germany

Due to its rich countryside and fascinating cities, Germany is the ideal destination for cycling enthusiasts. Thankfully, My Baggage can help you to easily transport your oversized items such as bicycles to Germany, without having to worry about renting equipment when you get there, or having to pay oversized baggage fees on your flight.

Shipping your oversized item to Germany with My Baggage is the easiest way to avoid extortionate overweight baggage fees from your airline. We help you to avoid having to haul your bulky items from home and through train stations, taxis and airports. Sending oversized items with My Baggage is an efficient and cost-effective way of getting your items to their overseas destination quickly, safely and at fantastic low costs.

Most common oversized items sent to Germany:

Note: if you are shipping your bicycle to Germany with My Baggage, it will need to be dismantled and packaged up in a box so that we can transport it easily and safely. Your local bicycle shop should be more than happy to do this for you for a small fee.

Other Ways Of Shipping To Germany

Shipping your luggage via My Baggage isn’t the only way to transport all of your worldly belongings to Germany. There are other options available that may better suit your needs, depending on the reasons for your travels. Here are just a few alternative options:

International Removals

Thinking of relocating to Germany permanently? You might consider transporting all of your essential belongings with an international removals company. This method of shipping allows you to transport all of your luggage – including larger, bulkier items such as furniture – in one single go, and they can be there to meet you at your destination!

Sea Freight

If you need to send a number of large items to Germany that may be otherwise difficult to transport – perhaps a sofa, a fridge or even your car – you might consider sea freight as a shipping option. Although a relatively inexpensive option, it sea freight can be an exceptionally slow voyage, meaning you could be without your belongings for quite some time. Depending on the route of the shipment, you could be waiting for up to two months for your items to arrive. You will also need to consider the transportation of your items to and from ports, both departing and upon arrival in Germany – which can be rather costly.

Air Freight

Similar to sea freight, air freight allows you to easily transport exceptionally large, bulky items to Germany. Although a much faster option of transportation; air freight tends to be the more expensive option of the two, as it is charged by weight and volume. Again, you will also need to consider the transportation of your items to and from airports.

Send A Parcel To Germany
Do you have a loved one living in Germany? Perhaps you live in Germany with family residing overseas? Why not send a thoughtful care-package via My Baggage? At My Baggage, we don’t just ship personal effects and suitcases to Germany – we can send parcels and gifts, too. Before you place your booking, be sure to do some research into German customs; particularly when it comes to sending gifts. Make sure you invest in a new sturdy, double-walled (or even triple-walled) cardboard box and cushion items with plenty of internal packaging, so as to avoid any damage occurring whilst in transit

Prohibited and Non-Compensation Items

My Baggage gives you the freedom to ship your personal belongings all over the world, meaning you can send almost everything you would typically find in a standard holiday suitcase. However, for security and customs reasons, there are certain items which are prohibited and cannot be carried; as is standard with most shipping companies.

Typography is the art and technique

Typography is the art and technique of arranging type to make written language legible, readable and appealing when displayed. The arrangement of type involves selecting typefaces, point size, line length, line-spacing (leading), letter-spacing (tracking), and adjusting the space within letters pairs (kerning).

As a general rule, you can be sure that the following items are prohibited:

  • Cash, Credit Cards, Debit Cards
  • Perishable Foods
  • Medicines
  • Animal Products
  • Aerosols
  • Dangerous Goods
  • Hazardous Goods
  • Plants
  • Liquids
  • Passports or other confidential personal documentation

It is important to note that there are also a number of items that can be carried on our services, however, they would be sent at your own risk as they are not covered under compensation cover. If you choose to send any non-compensation items, please ensure that they are packaged appropriately, with plenty of internal packaging for fragile items.

Find out more about My Baggage’s prohibited and non-compensation items.

As import allowances, security and customs processes differ all around the world; we recommend that you do your own personal research into what may be prohibited in your destination country before booking your shipment to Germany.

What type of packaging can be used?

When sending your belongings to Germany with My Baggage, we recommend using either suitcases or strong cardboard boxes to package your items so as they are suitable for transit.

We advise against using fragile or expensive suitcases, as packaging is not covered under our compensation cover. With regards to boxes, it’s always best to invest in a new, sturdy, double-walled cardboard box as they are most durable and suitable for transit.

If you are sending any fragile or delicate items, we recommend using internal packaging to protect them during transit. You can use materials such as bubble wrap or newspapers.

You can read through our complete packaging guide to find out more.

German Customs Information

If you’re sending boxes to Germany from a country outside of the EU, such as Canada or the USA, you are then legally required to complete and send a customs invoice with your shipment. When shipping to Germany from anywhere in the EU goods do not pass through customs clearance and therefore are not subject to import or tax duty.

Whether you are simply sending personal effects or a gift to a loved one; if your shipment does not have a customs invoice attached, it will not make it past your local country border, and you may have to pay return charges to get it back. My Baggage will automatically provide you with the appropriate customs documents for you to print, sign and attach to your shipment when you send luggage to Germany from outside the EU.

Generally, My Baggage shipments clear customs in a timely manner, free from duties and taxes, as most countries offer a generous duty-free allowance for personal effects. However, as customs processes and allowances are different around the world, and because My Baggage has no direct association with any customs authority; we do advise doing your own personal research into German customs regulations and quarantine before booking your shipment to Germany from outside of the EU. Please make yourself aware of potential customs duties in Germany and follow any advice provided by customs.

When completing your customs documents, it is important to do so properly and clearly. In order to demonstrate that your shipment consists of personal effects, you will be required to accurately describe each item included in the package. For example, you would declare: “4 x t-shirts, 2 x pairs of jeans, 3 x dresses” etc, as opposed to “10 x clothing”.
