About the London to Valencia shipping route by road

London to Valencia by road: 1,837 km of driving distance, south from the United Kingdom to Spain. The straight line is 1,339 km.

Transit time for one driver is about 42 h 24 min, of which 20 h 24 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 London to Valencia 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 Spain, so the truck travels on a CMR consignment note, plus export and import declarations at the border.

Of 31 road routes from London in this directory, Valencia is the 23rd shortest. Closer destinations: Madrid (1,800 km), Budapest (1,799 km) and Warsaw (1,639 km).
