Shipping to Düsseldorf
Düsseldorf, the capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, lies on the Rhine between Cologne and the Ruhr. Its trade fair grounds, fashion industry and the largest Japanese community in Europe make it one of Germany's most international cities.
The carrier delivers to Düsseldorf after the sea leg, so consignees in Neuss, Mönchengladbach, Krefeld and Ratingen can collect locally. Commercial importers in the Düsseldorf area will need an EORI number and usually a customs broker for clearance.
Many Japanese and other Asian companies have their European headquarters in Düsseldorf, and their staff often ship household goods through relocation partners. The city's port area and the airport cargo zone make it an easy place for freight forwarders to clear and deliver commercial cargo. For a private shipment, a rental van is enough to collect a typical LCL load.
The Königsallee shopping street and the Rhine promenade are in the centre; for deliveries to apartments there, ask the building manager about parking permits for the moving day.
