We move already purchased vehicles within Europe, export them from Europe and arrange inbound delivery using open or enclosed transporters, RoRo, containers and multimodal routes.
We work with already purchased vehicles, dealer stock and vehicle batches. The client handles the purchase separately; we manage the agreed transport route.

Enclosed transporterour own transporter for suitable routes
Road / RoRo / FCLEuropean and long-haul route options
We arrange road transport between European countries, exports through European ports and inbound delivery from other markets. We select the transport plan according to the vehicle, required level of protection, documents and final handover point.
We collect from dealers, auction and storage yards, and private sellers across the EU, EEA and the United Kingdom. For inbound delivery into Europe, we coordinate the port or road leg after arrival at the customer's request.

ROUTE AND HANDOVER
Within Europe and onward worldwide
We manage routes between European countries, from Europe to other regions and into Europe from external markets by request. The port and delivery method are selected for the vehicle, documents and final handover point.
Routes within the EU, from the United Kingdom, to Türkiye or outside Europe require different documents and customs procedures. Responsibilities are agreed before collection.

In practice
Real West Matterhorn projects
European projects include five new Mercedes-Benz vehicles from Munich to Sofia, a Cadillac Eldorado to Istanbul, premium vehicles in an enclosed transporter and a batch from Hamburg to Almaty.
Completed road projects and ocean transit examples
Munich → Sofia3 days on the road
Constanța → Sofia2 days
Bremerhaven → Jeddahabout 23 days
Rotterdam → New York14–22 days
The first two examples are actual West Matterhorn road projects. Ocean timing refers to the port-to-port leg and excludes collection, port processing, documents and final-mile delivery.
Requirements depend on whether the route stays within the EU, crosses an external border or includes a port. We review the file and assign responsibility for each stage before dispatch.

Who coordinates the route
West Matterhorn selects the transport, coordinates loading, borders and terminals, controls international legs and arranges the agreed vehicle handover.
Yes. We arrange delivery between European countries from a dealer, storage site, auction yard or private seller to the agreed address, port or terminal.
Do you have your own enclosed car transporter?
Yes. On suitable intra-European routes, we use our own enclosed car transporter for premium, rare and demanding vehicles. Availability is confirmed against the dates, locations and dimensions.
Can you deliver a vehicle into Europe from the USA, Asia or the UAE?
Yes. On request, we plan inbound delivery into Europe through a suitable port and road leg to the final address. We check the port, export and import documents, shipping method and final location.
Where can you ship a vehicle from Europe?
In addition to intra-European routes, we consider the Caucasus, Central Asia, the Middle East, the USA and Africa. The route depends on the vehicle, destination country, port and available service.
Should I choose an enclosed transporter, standard car transporter, RoRo or a container?
An enclosed transporter is selected for vehicles that need a more protected road leg. A standard transporter often suits batches and regular routes. RoRo and container shipping are used for long-haul and intercontinental routes after checking the vehicle and carrier.
Which documents matter on a European route?
Vehicle documents and proof of ownership are required. For routes outside the EU, export, transit, transport and destination-country import documents are also needed. We check the exact set before collection.
