Freight forwarder Malmö: direct road freight from the UK to southern Sweden
Malmö is the first major Swedish city on the road from continental Europe, and a freight forwarder in Malmö should make the most of that position. DAGO Express organises your shipment from the UK to Malmö as a direct transport. The vehicle that collects your goods in England, Scotland or Wales delivers to the final address in Skåne without handing the consignment over to another vehicle. There is no stop at a groupage depot and no cross-docking: your freight transport stays one load from start to finish, which reduces the risk of damage in transit.
You can count on a vehicle arriving 60 to 120 minutes after booking, or at a fixed collection time if you prefer to plan your loading schedule ahead. Across all our transports, punctuality is documented at 99.5 %. After order confirmation you receive a tracking link, and an email lets you know when the goods have been collected and when they have been delivered.
Typical goods for Malmö
Furniture, e-commerce stock, food production equipment, electronic components, printed matter and packaging, building materials, textiles and trade fair material are all regular consignments. Swedish businesses in the Malmö area can use the same service to send goods to customers throughout the UK.

Logistics in Malmö: the gateway between Scandinavia and the continent
With around 360,000 residents, Malmö is Sweden's third-largest city and the economic centre of Skåne. Since the Øresund Bridge opened in 2000, the city has been closely connected with Copenhagen. Together, they form a cross-border region with a large labour market and a busy flow of goods. The former shipyard area of Västra Hamnen has been transformed into a modern residential and business district, while new districts such as Hyllie in the south have grown rapidly around the railway and the bridge link.
The local economy is shaped by trade, logistics, food production and retail, as well as life sciences and technology with close ties to Lund University in the neighbouring city of Lund to the north-east. For a logistics company, the infrastructure is excellent. Copenhagen Malmö Port operates the harbour in Norra hamnen, handling ro-ro, car and bulk traffic, and the nearby port of Trelleborg is one of Sweden's main ferry gateways to Germany. The MalmöMässan exhibition centre in Hyllie hosts trade fairs throughout the year.
For companies in Britain that need haulage to Sweden, Malmö is one of the most accessible destinations. It is also a practical first stop for consignments that continue onwards to Gothenburg, Stockholm or Norway.
The route for road freight from the UK to Malmö
Every transport to Malmö starts with the Channel crossing, either on the Dover–Calais ferry or on Le Shuttle from Folkestone to Coquelles. On the Continent, the vehicle drives through Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany to the Danish border. It then continues on the E45 and E20 across Funen and the Great Belt Bridge to Zealand. From there, the E20 leads past Copenhagen and over the Øresund Bridge straight into Malmö.
Alternatively, ferries from Travemünde to Malmö, or from Rostock and Travemünde to Trelleborg, cross the Baltic directly from northern Germany. From Malmö, the E6 continues north to Helsingborg and Gothenburg, the E65 runs east to Ystad, and the E22 heads towards Kristianstad and the south-east coast.
Customs for goods from the UK to Sweden
Sweden is an EU member state, so goods from Great Britain require an export declaration in the UK and an import declaration in the EU. The exporter and the importer both need EORI numbers. At Dover and the Channel Tunnel, the declarations are linked to the vehicle via the Goods Vehicle Movement Service. DAGO Express does not handle customs clearance. Please have your customs agent prepare these documents before the vehicle arrives for collection.
Collection and delivery in Malmö and the surrounding area
We deliver across Malmö, from the city centre and Västra Hamnen to the port area in Norra hamnen, the business and exhibition district of Hyllie, and the industrial and logistics zones around Fosie and Svågertorp in the south. Neighbouring municipalities are easily reached, including Lund, Burlöv, Staffanstorp, Vellinge, Svedala and Trelleborg. Deliveries in Helsingborg, Landskrona or across the bridge in Copenhagen can be combined with a Malmö stop in the same haulage order.
City centre addresses may have limited loading space and fixed delivery times, whereas logistics centres on the outskirts usually work with booked docks. Share these details when you place your order so that the vehicle matches the site conditions.
Vehicles for freight to Malmö
For small shipments, a minivan carries two Euro pallets and up to 450 kg, and a van takes four pallets and up to 800 kg. For a pallet delivery without a loading dock, we use a van with a tail lift and a pallet truck, suitable for eight pallets and packages of up to 550 kg each. Full loads for distribution centres travel in a 13.6 LDM articulated lorry with 33 Euro pallets and up to 24 tonnes.

Frequently asked questions about freight transport in Malmö
How many pallets can freight transport in Malmö carry?
Capacity depends on pallet dimensions, weight and the vehicle. Share the shipment details so we can plan a suitable truck.
Can I request a tail lift for freight transport in Malmö?
Yes. Tell us if neither the pickup nor delivery site has a loading dock or forklift; we will check the availability of a suitable vehicle.
When should I choose a part load or a full truck load for Malmö?
That depends on volume, weight and delivery date. A part load shares available space; a full load reserves a vehicle for your freight.

An export declaration in the UK, an import declaration in the EU and EORI numbers for exporter and importer. Please ask your customs agent to prepare the declarations before collection.
