Battery logistics across Europe
Moving used lithium-ion batteries is regulated dangerous-goods transport. We make it someone else's specialty — ours.
You can't put a used EV pack on a normal pallet and ship it like machine parts. Lithium-ion batteries are classified as Class 9 dangerous goods: road transport falls under ADR, packaging must match the battery's condition, and damaged or defective units carry stricter provisions again. Getting this wrong isn't a paperwork problem — it's a safety and liability problem.
BatteryCentr coordinates compliant battery transport across Switzerland and Europe. We match each shipment to the right packaging, carrier and documentation, whether it's a single written-off pack from an insurer or a recurring flow of modules from a dismantling operation. Cross-border movements, including waste-shipment requirements where they apply, are planned into the route rather than discovered at the border.
ADR-aligned road transport
Carriers, drivers and documentation that meet European dangerous-goods requirements for lithium batteries.
Condition-matched packaging
From standard containment for healthy packs to reinforced solutions for damaged or unknown-condition units.
Route & border planning
Cross-border shipments are planned with the applicable notification and documentation requirements up front.
Shipment scoped
Battery types, condition and origin/destination define the transport class and packaging requirements.
Packaging & pickup
The right containment arrives with the carrier — nothing for your team to source or certify.
Tracked movement
Batteries travel with complete dangerous-goods documentation to our storage or a value partner.
