About the Copenhagen to Vienna shipping route by road
Copenhagen to Vienna by road: 1,451 km of driving distance, south from Denmark to Austria. The straight line is 870 km.
Transit time for one driver is about 25 h 48 min, of which 14 h 48 min at the wheel. We assume 9 driving hours a day and an 11 hour rest between shifts, as EU drivers' hours rules require. A two driver team can keep the truck moving and cut the trucking transit time almost in half. The route includes a ferry crossing: book the slot early, and add waiting time at the port.
Road freight on Copenhagen to Vienna is booked as FTL (a full truck for one shipper) or LTL and groupage (you pay for the pallet places you use). FTL is faster and safer for high value goods; groupage is cheaper for a few pallets but adds consolidation time. The trip crosses from Denmark into Austria, so the truck travels on a CMR consignment note, with no customs declarations inside the EU single market.
By rail the same trip is 1,171 km and takes about 39 h at freight train speed.
