Production Vehicles

Here is how this works in practice. We source production car packages from fleet providers concentrated around Warsaw and Łódź — the historic heart of Polish cinema — where the rental sector has grown since the Polish Film Institute introduced its 30% PISF cash rebates in 2019. Our team matches the fleet to the production's scale: camera, grip and lighting trucks configured for film work with shelving and lift gates, honey wagons, hair and makeup trailers, star trailers and production-office units that form a complete base camp, plus process trailers and camera cars for car work.

Here is the short of it. We handle parking permits, advance positioning and movement logistics, and can supply pro drivers skilled in handling valuable gear. Because hire from Polish vendors counts as qualifying spend toward the 30% rebates, sourcing the fleet locally keeps the budget efficient. Where a production needs pro cars not ready in-country, units move freely by road from neighbouring Germany and the Czech Republic, since Poland sits inside the EU single market and Schengen with no carnet needed for intra-EU transport.

Here is the breakdown. Car logistics in Poland are shaped by the country's geography and climate. Multi-site shoots — moving between Warsaw, Kraków's preserved historic core, the industrial build style of Łódź and the Baltic port of Gdańsk — call for careful movement planning, advance parking and fuel planning, and our team works with Polish local-authority rules to secure street parking and access in dense city centres.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Poland's temperate continental climate means cold, snowy winters that demand winter-rated tyres, cold-weather starting and heated site trailers for cast and crew, specific on exterior shoots in the Tatra Mountains. Warm summers ease those constraints. Productions arriving from outside the EU clear imported pro cars on ATA Carnets through the National Revenue Administration (Krajowa Administracja Skarbowa), with road links to Berlin, Prague and the Baltic ports. Billing is in Polish złoty (PLN) — Poland is an EU member but not in the Eurozone — and car hire carries 23% VAT.
