Garden and DIY wholesale for European markets
GardeniQ delivers garden and DIY products wholesale from Poland to garden centres, DIY and hardware stores, retail chains and online sellers in every EU country, and to Switzerland, the UK and Norway. Each country has its own label language, packaging registration and marketplace habits, and power tools, lights and pumps add WEEE and battery registrations on top.
The pages below give the practical facts for garden products wholesale in Europe, country by country: typical road delivery times from eastern Poland, what goes on the label, how VAT works on a B2B invoice and which packaging system applies. The rules change, so we confirm them on every order.

Delivery times are typical road times by pallet from eastern Poland and depend on the carrier, the region and the season; bulky goods such as greenhouses, furniture and grills may need a lorry with tail-lift. Packaging obligations under the EU Packaging Regulation (EU) 2025/40, applying since 12 August 2026, and national rules are still settling; we check what applies to your shipment.
Frequently asked questions
Does GardeniQ charge VAT to businesses outside Poland?
Not to EU businesses with a valid VAT number confirmed in VIES: we invoice them without Polish VAT under the reverse charge, and they account for VAT in their country. Polish customers receive an invoice with Polish VAT.
Who registers the packaging in my country?
Usually the first business that makes the packaging available in the country where it becomes waste, under the EU Packaging Regulation. When we deliver to your business, that is often you. We give you packaging weights by material for your registration and reports.
Who registers power tools, lights and batteries under WEEE and the Batteries Regulation?
Usually the business placing the goods on that national market, often the buyer. Electrical and battery-powered products need producer registration in each country of sale, for example with stiftung ear in Germany. We tell you per order who registers and give you the weights and battery data you need.
Can you put my country’s language on the manual and label?
Yes. Safety information, warnings and instructions are printed in the languages you sell in, and we can combine several languages in one manual for multi-country ranges.
Do you deliver garden and DIY products to the UK and Norway?
Yes, with export documents from the EU; import VAT and duties are paid by the receiver. They have their own product marking and packaging rules, which we check per order.
How long does delivery take from Poland to my country?
Typically 1–8 days by road once the goods have been cleared in Poland, depending on the country. Production and freight from the factory come before that, typically 8–12 weeks in total for a new order, so spring garden ranges need to be ordered by October–November.
