Shipping to Bonn on the Rhine
Bonn, the former capital of West Germany, lies on the Rhine about 25 km south of Cologne. Several federal ministries and the United Nations campus are still here, so many shipments to Bonn are household goods of diplomats, researchers and international staff relocating to the city.
Bonn is served as an inland destination: the container is unloaded on the coast and your cargo continues to Bonn by land. It is the right choice for the Rhein-Sieg district, Siegburg and Bad Godesberg; for Cologne itself pick the Cologne destination.
Because many residents of Bonn work for international organizations, some shipments qualify for diplomatic or institutional customs privileges; ask your employer before you ship. Bonn is compact and well served by roads along both banks of the Rhine, and most consignees can collect their cargo themselves with a rented van and deliver it to the apartment the same day.
