Moldova's location between Romania and Ukraine means international freight movements rely heavily on road transport, supported by air freight and connections through regional ports. Yes2Ship provides shipping to Moldova for commercial goods, personal belongings, vehicles, specialist cargo, and regular business movements from locations throughout the UK.
Road freight provides a practical solution for many UK-Moldova consignments, with groupage, part-load, dedicated vehicle, and full-load options available. Services can be arranged to Chișinău, Bălți, Cahul, Orhei, Ungheni, and destinations throughout the country.
Air freight through Chișinău International Airport provides a faster alternative for urgent and time-sensitive goods. For larger international consignments, sea freight can be combined with onward road transport through suitable regional ports.

The appropriate service can be selected according to the cargo's dimensions, weight, urgency, and individual handling requirements.

Airline baggage allowances can quickly become restrictive when relocating internationally. Additional suitcases, boxes, clothing, sports equipment, and other personal possessions can be transported separately, allowing customers to travel without trying to carry everything as airline baggage.
Packing materials are available to help protect belongings during international transit, while our team can recommend road, air, or sea-based transport according to the amount being moved, destination, budget, and required timescale.
For customers relocating from Moldova into the UK, we can also coordinate the international movement and UK customs clearance where required. Where applicable, guidance can be provided on the UK's Transfer of Residence (ToR) process for personal belongings entering the country.
