Postal codes covered
The county's export base is dominated by heavy industry: the ArcelorMittal steel works and the wider Galați industrial zone generate machinery, replacement parts, industrial equipment and manufacturing supplies. Steel-processing equipment, industrial valves and heavy components are the main outbound categories, consolidated for Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia.
As an intra-EU lane, only CMR documentation applies — no customs clearance, no duties. Capacity is ambient/dry LTL with load securing for heavy industrial components; we run no temperature-controlled freight, and full-trailer volumes are quoted case by case.
Galați, Tecuci and Târgu Bujor are the county's collection points — Galați city hosts the industrial base and Danube port, with the ArcelorMittal steel complex the single-largest consignor feeding the Spain-bound return leg.

Frequently asked
What is the transit time from Galați to Spain?
Loads from Galați reach Barcelona, Madrid or Valencia over roughly 2,750 km — one of the corridor's eastern endpoints on the Danube — carried as return-leg backhaul on the scheduled Spain–Romania corridor. Capacity is arranged on request and tracked end to end. Transit depends on the delivery zone, and we give it for the exact postcode you deliver to when you ask for a quote.
Do you collect heavy industrial loads from Galați's steel zone?
Yes — palletised industrial equipment, replacement parts and manufacturing supplies from Galați's industrial zone and ArcelorMittal operations are standard Spain-bound freight. We handle load securing for heavy components and coordinate collection windows with the consignor.
Is there a fixed reverse schedule from Galați to Spain?
No — Romania→Spain moves as return-load capacity on the scheduled Spain→Romania departures, not a separate reverse timetable. We confirm space on the next suitable return leg when you book and consolidate through the Castellar del Vallès hub.
