Quick answer: Hvidovre sits on the motorway side of the capital, which makes it the easiest of the Greater Copenhagen municipalities for a full-size removal lorry to reach. One FIDI-certified mover matched free. 07551 855 064.
Hvidovre has a practical advantage the rest of the capital area does not: the lorry never has to go into Copenhagen.
The route is the standard capital one, Channel crossing then through Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, up through Jutland, over the Little Belt onto Funen and the Great Belt onto Zealand. But Hvidovre sits south west of the city on the motorway approach, so a vehicle arrives from the direction it is already travelling and stops short of the dense centre entirely.
In practice that means no navigating narrow inner city streets, no timed vehicle restrictions and no relay vehicle. For a full-size removal lorry it is the most comfortable Greater Copenhagen delivery there is.
Copenhagen Malmo Port covers sea freight for the area, with a short road leg from the terminal.
Nearby on the bay, we also cover Ishoj further south west.
Nearby, we also cover Albertslund inland.
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.
Free. One FIDI-certified partner mover. No obligation.
Hvidovre is a mixed municipality and most of it is easy.
A large share is residential housing with driveways and on-street parking, plus apartment blocks of relatively recent construction with lifts and loading space. There is no medieval core, no cobbled lanes and no pedestrianised centre to work around. Compared with almost anywhere else in the capital area this is a simple delivery.
The one thing to check is the larger planned estates within the municipality, including Avedore. Developments of that period and scale often have controlled vehicle access, barriers or restricted internal roads, and the mover may need to arrange entry in advance rather than simply driving in. It is easily handled, but not on the day.
Lift dimensions are still worth measuring against your largest item, even in newer blocks.
Postcode 2650 covers the municipality, and it is worth using rather than writing Copenhagen, because loading and parking rules are set by Hvidovre Municipality separately from Copenhagen. A permit arranged with the wrong council is no permit at all.
Send the UK collection postcode, the full Hvidovre delivery address, an inventory, the property type and access details, your preferred date and any special items. One FIDI-certified partner mover confirms the quote, the route and the customs paperwork.

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.
A one bedroom flat and a four bedroom house are not in the same bracket. Everything else adjusts around this.
Sharing container space costs less and takes longer, because your goods wait for other consignments.
Great Belt crossing, then the motorway approach with no inner city leg.
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.
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 Hvidovre as anywhere else in Denmark.
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%.
The whole municipality is covered from this page, including Avedore and Friheden.
East across the water, Tarnby covers Amager and the airport district. Taastrup lies north west on the same motorway corridor.
Neighbouring municipalities have their own pages: removals into Copenhagen to the east, Rodovre to the north, Brondby to the west and Frederiksberg to the north east.
A few boxes and a four bedroom house need entirely different handling, and so does an office relocation. Pick the one that fits.
Moving companies quoting this corridor range widely, and a website will not show you which is which. Accreditation is how you tell who has actually been checked, and it is worth looking at before price.
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.
These tell you a company works to agreed standards and that you have somewhere to take a complaint.

The standard capital route, but with a useful difference at the end. Hvidovre sits south west of Copenhagen on the motorway approach, so the lorry arrives from the direction it is already travelling and stops short of the dense centre entirely. No inner city streets, no timed vehicle restrictions, no relay vehicle. Copenhagen Malmo Port covers sea freight with a short road leg.
Very few, which is the point of the place. There is no medieval core, no cobbled lanes and no pedestrianised centre. Most of the municipality is housing with driveways and on-street parking plus relatively recent apartment blocks with lifts and loading space. The one thing to check is the larger planned estates including Avedore, where controlled vehicle access or barriers may mean the mover needs to arrange entry in advance rather than turning up.
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%.
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.
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.
Yes. Coming back to Britain you will be dealing with HMRC and Transfer of Residence relief rather than Toldstyrelsen. See UK repatriation.
