About the Paris to Bucharest shipping route by road
Paris to Bucharest by road: 2,304 km of driving distance, east from France to Romania. The straight line is 1,870 km.
Transit time for one driver is about 2.6 days, of which 29 h 12 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.
Road freight on Paris to Bucharest 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 France into Romania, so the truck travels on a CMR consignment note, with no customs declarations inside the EU single market.
By rail the same trip is 2,362 km and takes about 3.3 days at freight train speed.
