Freight forwarder Brno: road freight from the UK to Moravia
Brno is the economic centre of Moravia, and many British companies supply customers, business partners or trade fair stands there. As a freight forwarder in Brno for the UK market, DAGO Express handles each consignment as a direct transport: the vehicle is loaded at your site in Great Britain and unloaded at the destination in Brno. There is no transhipment at a groupage depot, which reduces the risk of damage, and no waiting for additional freight to fill the loading space.
Collection usually takes place 60 to 120 minutes after your booking is confirmed, or at a fixed time if you prefer. Our documented punctuality rate is 99.5 %, which makes it easier to align your road freight with production lines, construction phases or the opening day of an exhibition. If plans change at short notice, our team adjusts the collection or delivery time with you.
Common goods for Brno
We move industrial machinery and spare parts, electronic components, automotive parts, exhibition stands and displays, printed matter, packaging and building materials.

In the opposite direction, Czech manufacturers and distributors can send goods from Brno to their customers in Great Britain with the same direct service.

Logistics in Brno: engineering, trade fairs and technology
Brno is the second-largest city in the Czech Republic, with around 400,000 inhabitants, and the capital of the South Moravian Region. For more than a century, it has been an important centre of mechanical and electrical engineering. This industrial tradition continues today in firms producing turbines, machine tools, electrical equipment and precision parts across the city and the surrounding area.
The Brno Exhibition Centre remains one of the most important venues for trade fairs in Central Europe. The International Engineering Fair held there each year draws exhibitors from many countries, and further fairs cover the construction, automotive and other sectors. Each event means tight build-up and dismantling windows for stands, exhibits and machines, which a logistics company often has to bring straight from the exhibitor's premises.
In recent decades, Brno has also developed into a hub for IT, software development and research, supported by several universities and science parks. Logistics parks have grown along the motorways on the southern edge of the city, especially around Modřice and Tuřany, where Brno Airport is located as well. For British suppliers, this mix of industry, events and technology means varied freight flows, from small urgent parts shipments to full loads of machinery.
The route from the UK to Brno
Consignments cross from Dover to Calais by ferry or use Le Shuttle from Folkestone. The journey then leads through Belgium and Germany, typically via Cologne, Frankfurt and Nuremberg, before the A6 carries the vehicle east to the Czech border at Waidhaus and Rozvadov. On the Czech side, the D5 motorway passes Plzeň on its way to Prague, and from there the D1 heads south-east through the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands directly to Brno. Depending on the collection point in Great Britain, a route via Dresden and the D8 to Prague is also used.
Brno is a major motorway junction. The D1 continues east towards Ostrava, while the D2 heads south-east to Břeclav and the Slovak border near Bratislava. Heavier vehicles pay an electronic distance-based toll on Czech motorways, which is taken into account when the haulage route is planned.
Customs for the Czech Republic
Since the Czech Republic is an EU member, goods arriving from Great Britain require an export declaration in the UK and an import declaration in the EU. The exporter and the importer each need a valid EORI number. At Dover and the Channel Tunnel, the declarations are linked to the vehicle via the Goods Vehicle Movement Service and its Goods Movement Reference. Please agree all declarations with your customs agent before collection, as DAGO Express does not prepare them.
Collection and delivery in Brno and the surrounding area
We deliver across all districts of Brno, from the industrial areas in Černovice, Slatina and Tuřany to Královo Pole, Líšeň and Bohunice. The logistics and business parks in Modřice and Popůvky, the industrial town of Kuřim to the north, and Šlapanice to the east are regular destinations. Further stops in Blansko, Vyškov, Rajhrad or Hustopeče can be combined with a delivery to Brno if the load is split between several recipients.
For deliveries to the exhibition grounds, the organiser's specific access rules and time slots apply. Share these details when you book, along with any need for a tail lift or specific unloading conditions, and the vehicle will be chosen to suit the requirements of the site.
Vehicles for Brno
Urgent spare parts often fit into a minivan with room for two Euro pallets and a payload of up to 450 kg. The van with a tail lift and a pallet truck takes eight pallets and up to 800 kg, which is practical for exhibition stands and for a pallet delivery to sites without a loading ramp. For heavy machinery, the 7.2 LDM lorry carries 18 pallets and up to 5,000 kg, while the articulated lorry with 13.6 loading metres moves full loads of up to 24 tonnes.
