Despite the distance, we handle everything: pickup at your door, secure packaging, and delivery to any address in Romania within 4-6 business days.
Long-distance bike shipping across Europe is our specialty. Every shipment travels through our vetted carrier network, fully tracked in real time from pickup to delivery. No customs clearance is needed within the EU, so your bike moves seamlessly across borders.
buycycle is Europe's leading marketplace for pre-owned bikes, and our shipping service was built to support the cycling community. Thousands of bikes are bought, sold, and shipped across the continent every month through our platform. Whether your shipment is related to a buycycle transaction, a race, a relocation, or a holiday, our logistics network is open to everyone.
This route is priced from EUR 75 per shipment (commercial, ex-VAT). We offer a fixed price with no distance surcharges or hidden fees. Every shipment includes full coverage against damage and loss.
Flying with a bike box means airline surcharges, size restrictions, and the risk of damage in cargo holds. General couriers are not equipped for oversized sporting goods. Our dedicated service solves both problems: purpose-built packaging, careful handling, and door-to-door convenience at a predictable price.
Whether you are chasing Dolomites, Tuscany, Stelvio Pass or simply moving house, our service connects Italy and Romania without the hassle of flying with a bike box or driving across Europe.

About this route
Italy and Romania connect the Stelvio Pass with the Transfăgărășan, two of Europe's most celebrated mountain roads. Romanian cycling is thriving in Transylvania, where quiet Carpathian passes wind through forests of beech and spruce far from traffic. Riders who ship a Bianchi or Wilier from the Italian peninsula discover that Romania's roads offer raw alpine grandeur at a fraction of western European costs.
Beyond the famous Transfăgărășan, Romania's cycling treasures include the Transalpina road, which climbs even higher and sees far fewer tourists, and the medieval fortified churches of Saxon Transylvania that punctuate rolling routes between Sibiu and Brașov. Italian cyclists find that the Carpathian foothills near Cluj-Napoca deliver punchy, technical climbs through pastoral villages where horse-drawn carts still share the road. The Danube Delta, Europe's largest wetland, provides a remarkably flat counterpoint to all the mountain riding, with birdwatching opportunities that rival the Po Delta back home.
Buycycle makes shipping between Italy and Romania straightforward, with door-to-door collection and delivery across both countries. Every bike is secured in a reinforced box with protective padding to ensure it arrives ready to ride. Full shipment tracking is included, and the well-connected EU freight network means transit times typically fall between five and seven business days.
