Quick answer: Rodovre is small-plot suburban housing right on Copenhagen's western edge. Streets are narrow with cars parked both sides, so parking is the constraint rather than the building. One FIDI-certified mover matched free. 07551 855 064.
Rodovre sits directly against Copenhagen's western boundary, which makes it one of the shortest final legs of any capital delivery.
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. A lorry approaches from the west and reaches Rodovre before the dense centre, so there is no inner city navigation involved at all. Copenhagen Malmo Port covers sea freight with a short road leg.
Being this close to the boundary has one consequence worth knowing. People routinely give their address as Copenhagen because that is what everything around them says. It is not. Rodovre is its own municipality with postcode 2610 and its own loading rules, and a mover working to a Copenhagen permit will have the wrong one.
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.

Rodovre is a different kind of problem from the rest of the capital area, and it is worth being precise about it because it is easily underestimated.
The building is rarely the issue. Much of the municipality is small detached and semi-detached houses on modest plots, built through the middle decades of the twentieth century, plus apartment blocks of the same era with reasonable lifts. Nothing here compares with hoisting a wardrobe into a fifth floor Copenhagen walk-up.
The street is the issue. Plots are small. Houses sit close together, so a short stretch of road holds a lot of households. Most have a car, many have two, and residential streets end up with vehicles parked continuously along both sides. A full-size removal lorry needs a clear run to get close to the door, and on a busy weekday it will not always find one.
The practical answers are booking road space in advance through the municipality, or moving mid-morning rather than at either end of the day. Ask the mover which they are planning.
Driveways, where they exist, tend to be short and narrow. Confirm whether the vehicle can pull in or whether everything is coming from the kerb.
Send the UK collection postcode, the full Rodovre 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 one of the shortest final legs in the capital area.
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 Rodovre 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.
Neighbouring destinations have their own pages: the capital and its suburbs to the east, Hvidovre to the south, Herlev to the north and Taastrup to the west.
A few boxes and a four bedroom house need entirely different handling, and so does an office relocation. Pick the one that fits.
There is no entry requirement, which means moving companies range from meticulous to careless. 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.

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%.

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 the outbound service.
