The international Ukraine - Poland route is the most intensive cross-border freight direction for Ukrainian logistics. The main border crossing points are Krakovets, Rava-Ruska, Shehyni, and Uhryniv in the Lviv region, as well as Yahodyn in Volyn. Hundreds of trucks with various goods pass through these crossings daily. Major goods from Ukraine to Poland: grain and oilseed crops, timber and lumber, rolled metal, ore, food products, and textile products. From Poland to Ukraine, consumer goods, auto parts, household chemicals, construction materials, agricultural machinery, and equipment are transported. The border crossing procedure requires customs declarations, veterinary and phytosanitary certificates (for relevant cargo), CMR notes, and other supporting documents. Waiting times at the border can range from a few hours to several days during peak periods, so trip planning must account for potential delays. Following Ukraine's entry into the European integration process, bilateral trade volumes have grown, stimulating demand for international freight transport. Carriers with CEMT permits or bilateral permits have an advantage in this direction. CarGoPro helps find cargo for international shipments to and from Poland, providing return loads for maximum trip efficiency. The filtering system allows selecting cargo by body type, weight, and loading/unloading points, while counterparty verification ensures partner reliability.
