Quick answer: Ballerup is corporate campus territory west of Copenhagen, so a lot of moves here are employer postings. Business park access usually needs arranging in advance. One vetted mover matched free. 07551 855 064.

We handle relocation and shipping to Ballerup and across the Capital Region (Hovedstaden), for households and businesses alike. We are not a removal company. We match your enquiry with one vetted mover from the AGM Group network, so you are not chased by five firms after one enquiry.
🚚 Getting your goods to Ballerup

Shipping your goods to Ballerup

Ballerup sits west of Copenhagen and is one of the capital region's main employment centres rather than a dormitory suburb.

The route in is the capital route: Channel crossing, then through Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, up through Jutland, over the Little Belt onto Funen and the Great Belt onto Zealand. The lorry approaches from the west and stops short of the dense centre, so no inner city navigation is involved. Copenhagen Malmo Port covers sea freight.

A good share of the moves we see here are employer postings tied to the office and business park sites, which changes two things.

First, dates tend to be fixed rather than flexible. A dedicated vehicle hits a date. Shared container space does not, because it waits for other consignments heading the same way. Second, company accommodation is often partly or fully furnished, so find out before you pay to ship a household into a flat that already has one.

Nearby, we also cover Albertslund to the south.

FIDI FAIM is the international quality standard for removal companies. To be accredited, a removal company must pass an independent audit by Ernst and Young covering more than 200 quality and operational criteria, repeated every three years.

International Removals Companies connects each enquiry with one FIDI-certified partner mover who works Danish routes. It does not carry out the move itself. DATACONTEXT (UK) LTD, company 07425576, has operated the service since November 2010. The enquiry is free.

🏠 Access in Ballerup

What to expect at the Ballerup end

Residential Ballerup is straightforward. Business Ballerup needs a phone call first.

The housing side is unremarkable in the best sense. Detached and terraced properties with driveways, apartment blocks of relatively recent construction with lifts and loading space, and roads wide enough for a full-size lorry. There is no medieval core and no pedestrianised centre.

The commercial side is where planning matters. Office and business park sites in the municipality typically have controlled vehicle access, barriers, security gates and designated loading bays with their own booking systems. A removal lorry cannot simply arrive. For an office relocation, or for a residential move into accommodation attached to a site, the mover needs the entry arranged in advance and often a named contact on the day.

Tell the mover at enquiry stage if any part of the move touches a business park. It is easily handled with notice and genuinely awkward without it.

Loading and parking rules are set by Ballerup Municipality, separately from Copenhagen. Make sure the mover applies to the right council.

💷 Ballerup removal costs

How much do shipping and removals to Ballerup cost?

Nobody can price your move honestly without knowing what you are shifting and where from. Here is what the partner mover will be asking about.

Volume

A one bedroom flat and a four bedroom house are not in the same bracket. Everything else adjusts around this.

Shared or sole use

Sharing container space costs less and takes longer, because your goods wait for other consignments.

Route into Ballerup

Great Belt crossing, then a western approach with no inner city leg.

Access and packing

Lifts, street width and parking all add hours. Full packing costs more up front and usually saves grief later.

Quotes come in pounds, but you will be spending Danish kroner when you land, since Denmark kept the krone and did not join the euro. Currency exchange is included in what we offer through our partners, with no hidden fees, competitive rates and five star consumer ratings.

📄 Danish customs

Danish customs for goods arriving in Ballerup

Since Brexit the UK sits outside the EU, so goods from Britain need Danish customs clearance. The authority is Toldstyrelsen, the Danish Customs Agency, and it is Toldstyrelsen you deal with for goods rather than SKAT, which handles tax. The rules are national, so they apply the same in Ballerup as anywhere else in Denmark.

Relief conditions: all must be met
  • Lived outside the EU for at least 12 consecutive months
  • Goods used for the same purpose after the move
  • Goods arrive no later than 12 months after you move
  • Goods arrive no earlier than six months before, otherwise you lodge security for the duty and VAT
  • No lending, pledging, hiring out or selling for 12 months after import
Paperwork and exclusions

Two documents. Your mover files the customs clearance declaration. You separately complete a declaration of personal property, form 12.024, and send it to Toldstyrelsen yourself.

Keep receipts. You may be asked to show six months of ownership on valuable items.

Alcohol, tobacco, commercial vehicles and trade equipment are excluded, though portable tools are fine. If you do not qualify, Danish moms is 25%.

Cars are separate: vehicles come under Motorstyrelsen with its own rules and a registration fee. Rules change, so check toldst.dk before you ship. Last reviewed September 2026.

📦 What kind of move is it?

Moving services for Ballerup

A few boxes and a four bedroom house need entirely different handling, and so does an office relocation. Pick the one that fits.

🏆 Choosing a removal company

Accreditation: what to check before you book

The moving companies quoting corporate relocations here are not all equipped for them. Accreditation is how you tell who has actually been checked, and it is worth looking at before price.

FIDI FAIM Certified

Audited independently by Ernst and Young against more than 200 quality and operational criteria, from how a firm handles client money to how it trains its crews. The audit repeats every three years.

Every mover we match you with holds it.

The other memberships to look for
  • BAR Overseas, the British Association of Removers overseas group
  • IAM, the International Association of Movers
  • EUROMOVERS, the European mover network
  • FEDEMAC, the European federation of movers associations

These tell you a company works to agreed standards and that you have somewhere to take a complaint.

Our network partners come from the AGM Group network, whose website is agm.group. Each moving company on that list passed an assessment first.

Ballerup removal questions

Common questions about moving to Ballerup

How do removals get to Ballerup from the UK?

The standard capital route, with the lorry stopping short of the dense centre. Channel crossing, then through Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, up through Jutland, over the Little Belt onto Funen and the Great Belt onto Zealand, approaching Ballerup from the west. Copenhagen Malmo Port covers sea freight. Many moves here are employer postings with fixed dates, and a dedicated vehicle hits a date where shared space cannot.

What access problems should I expect?

Residential Ballerup is straightforward, with driveways, modern lifts and wide roads. The commercial side is where planning matters. Office and business park sites typically have controlled vehicle access, barriers, security gates and loading bays with their own booking systems, so a removal lorry cannot simply arrive. Tell the mover at enquiry stage if any part of the move touches a business park, because it is easily handled with notice and awkward without.

Do I pay Danish VAT on my belongings?

Not if you meet Toldstyrelsen's conditions for transferring your residence. You need 12 consecutive months living outside the EU, the goods arriving within 12 months of your move and no earlier than six months before it, and no lending or selling them for a year afterwards. If you do not qualify, Danish moms is 25%.

What paperwork do I need?

Two documents, not one. Your mover files the customs clearance declaration. You separately complete a declaration of personal property, form 12.024, and send it to Toldstyrelsen yourself. Keep receipts, because you may be asked to prove six months of ownership on valuable items.

Can I take my car?

Yes, but it is handled separately from your household goods. Vehicles come under Motorstyrelsen with its own rules and a registration fee. Ask the partner mover to quote for it as a separate item.

Do you move people out of Ballerup as well?

Yes. Coming back to Britain you will be dealing with HMRC and Transfer of Residence relief rather than Toldstyrelsen. See the reverse journey.
