Send moving boxes to Tenerife or Gran Canaria
Would you like to send several moving boxes to Tenerife or Gran Canaria without organizing a complete move? DACHSER & KOLB collects your prepared boxes from your address in Germany, places them in a pallet box used exclusively for your order, and coordinates transport all the way to your destination address on the island.
We handle collection with two-person handling, transport securing inside the box, transport organization, the required import formalities, and delivery within the agreed scope of services.
You pack your boxes. We take care of the rest of the transport.
From your address in Germany to Tenerife or Gran Canaria
Are your boxes in your apartment, basement, or another pickup location? Our service begins wherever your packed moving boxes are to be collected and ends at the agreed destination address on Tenerife or Gran Canaria.
You do not have to bring your boxes to a freight warehouse yourself, organize your own pallet, or arrange separate onward transport from a warehouse or shipping station after arrival on the island.
Within the agreed scope of services, DACHSER & KOLB handles:
- collection from your address in Germany
- two-person handling during collection
- the pallet box used exclusively for your order
- loading of your prepared boxes
- professional transport securing inside the box
- organization of transport to the Canary Islands
- handling of the required import formalities
- delivery on Tenerife or Gran Canaria
- two-person handling during delivery
Special conditions at the pickup or destination address, such as stairs, longer carrying distances, or other local requirements, can affect the required scope of services and the costs and will be coordinated individually during the further process.

More than classic parcel shipping
If you want to send several moving boxes to the Canary Islands, you may first compare prices from parcel services or freight forwarders. However, DACHSER & KOLB’s small transport service includes more than simply sending individual parcels from A to B.
Your prepared boxes are collected from your home and loaded into a transport box, our DACHSER & KOLB pallet box, used exclusively for your order. Inside the box, we take care of professional transport securing for the onward transport. We then coordinate the transport route and delivery to your destination address.
This means you do not have to prepare a transport pallet yourself or coordinate different transport stages independently.
You pack your boxes – we handle transport securing
You pack your personal belongings in suitable moving boxes. DACHSER & KOLB then handles transport securing inside the pallet box.
When packing, make sure fragile contents are sufficiently padded and protected against movement inside the box. Books, clothing, dishes, and other personal items should be packed so they are prepared for transport.
We also need an inventory list of the items included for transport. Especially for transport to the Canary Islands, a complete list is also relevant for the further handling of import formalities.
During collection, our employees load your prepared boxes into the pallet box and secure the shipment professionally for onward transport.
How much fits into a pallet box?
Our pallet box offers space for several moving boxes and other suitable personal items.
- Internal dimensions: 1.50 × 1.10 × 1.40 m
- Volume: up to 2.31 m³ per box
- Weight: maximum 500 kg per box and maximum 100 kg per individual item
- Quantity: up to two pallet boxes can be used per order.
The pallet box does not have to be filled exclusively with boxes. If suitable space remains, suitcases or smaller suitable items can also be transported together, depending on dimensions, weight, and transport conditions.
Important: The box system involves a certain basic effort regardless of whether the box is used to full capacity. For very few boxes, classic parcel shipping may therefore appear cheaper. Our service is aimed at customers who need collection, pallet box, transport securing, organization, and delivery from a single source in addition to the transport itself.

Have moving boxes transported to Tenerife
DACHSER & KOLB organizes the transport of your moving boxes from your address in Germany to your new home on Tenerife. Deliveries are possible in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Puerto de la Cruz, La Laguna, Adeje, Arona, and many other locations on the island, among others.
Your prepared boxes are collected in Germany, loaded into the pallet box used exclusively for your order, and professionally secured for onward transport. We coordinate transport to the island, handle the required import formalities, and organize delivery to your agreed destination address.
Special local conditions, such as floors, available elevators, or longer carrying distances, are taken into account during the further planning and calculation of your transport.
Have moving boxes transported to Gran Canaria
Would you like to take only part of your household goods, several boxes, or additional personal items to Gran Canaria? Our small transport service is suitable for manageable transport quantities that do not require a full move.
We collect your prepared moving boxes in Germany and coordinate transport all the way to your destination address on Gran Canaria. Delivery is possible in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Telde, Maspalomas, San Bartolomé de Tirajana, and many other locations on the island, among others.
Collection, pallet box, transport securing, transport organization, and delivery are coordinated with one another. The conditions at your destination address are also included in the planning, such as the floor, use of an elevator, or longer distances between the vehicle and the apartment.
What does it cost to send moving boxes to the Canary Islands?
The cost of transporting your moving boxes to Tenerife or Gran Canaria depends in particular on the route, volume, weight, and agreed scope of services.
Price-relevant factors include:
- your pickup address in Germany
- the destination address on Tenerife or Gran Canaria
- the required transport volume
- one or two pallet boxes
- weight and type of items
- conditions during pickup and delivery
- required additional services
- requirements related to import into the Canary Islands
A flat-rate price based on the number of boxes would therefore not be meaningful.
With our moving cost calculator, you receive a non-binding initial price within just a few minutes. After detailed review of the volume and coordination of the specific scope of services, a binding fixed-price quote can then be prepared.
