Belgrade to Bucharest is about 640 km, eight hours' driving, with a studio from €770. Both countries are in the EU, so the crossing is a check rather than a customs procedure, and the road is the only variable.
What the move costs
The price depends on how much there is, how many days of packing are needed, the floor at each address, and any extras. Indicative starting prices:
| Home | Volume | From |
|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bedroom, up to 30 m² | up to 8 m³ | €770 |
| Two-bedroom, 30–50 m² | 10–15 m³ | €920 |
| Three-bedroom, 50–80 m² | 15–20 m³ | €1,150 |
| Four-bedroom or house, 80 m²+ | 20 m³+ | €1,440 |
These are starting prices, calculated per kilometre driven. A full service with movers, packing and reassembly runs at €1.5–1.9 per kilometre; groupage is charged by the space your load takes up. For an exact figure call +381 66 50-40-30-9.

The road and the border
East through Vršac to the Vatin crossing, then across the Banat plain through Timișoara and on towards Bucharest. Eight hours for 640 km reflects the road rather than the distance: much of the Romanian section is single carriageway through towns, not motorway.

About Bucharest
Bucharest deliveries go across the city and to Ilfov county around it, with Ploiești and Pitești on the same runs. Most of this traffic is business relocation and people taking up work rather than diaspora moves.
Practical notes
Bucharest is a city of large residential blocks, most with lifts that take furniture, and access is generally easier than in western European capitals. The harder part is the road: the Romanian leg runs through a string of towns with heavy lorry traffic, and an eight-hour estimate assumes an ordinary day rather than a good one. We build the schedule on that basis rather than promising an hour we cannot hold.
