About the London to Antwerp shipping route by road

London to Antwerp by road: 380 km of driving distance, east from the United Kingdom to Belgium. The straight line is 316 km.

Transit time for one driver is about 6 h 18 min. The trip fits into one driver's shift, so the truck can load and deliver on the same day. The route includes a ferry crossing: book the slot early, and add waiting time at the port.

Road freight on London to Antwerp 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 the United Kingdom into Belgium, so the truck travels on a CMR consignment note, plus export and import declarations at the border.

By rail the same trip is 415 km and takes about 13 h 48 min at freight train speed.

Of 31 road routes from London in this directory, Antwerp is the 2nd shortest. Closer destinations: Brussels (372 km).
