These are regular shifts that ensure continuous border control. During shift change, processing of of buses at Hrushiv typically slows for 20–60 minutes. To minimize wait, plan to cross **30+ minutes before or 60+ minutes after** the approximate shift change. Check the live queue above for current status. At the neighboring Poland checkpoint the border-guard shift change happens at the same local times, but Poland is on Central European Time — one hour behind Kyiv — so there it falls around **07:00 and 19:00 Kyiv time**. Because the two shifts overlap, the slowdown stretches into wider windows on both sides: **roughly 07:00–08:30 in the morning and 19:00–20:30 in the evening** (Kyiv time). During these intervals, processing on both sides can noticeably slow down. ## Queue Chart: Today & Yesterday ##### Queue at checkpoint for the last 24 hours Real Data Increased Load [**When is the best time to go?** Load statistics by day and hour](https://nakordoni.eu/en/id/id_11/statistics) Detailed statistics for today and yesterday · Peak Hours · Data Comparison ## Detailed statistics for today and yesterday ### Border Queue Analysis at the Hrushiv - bus checkpoint for Yesterday During the period 25.07.2026 from 00:00 to 23:59 at the Hrushiv - bus checkpoint, the following key moments were recorded: **Morning hours (06:00 - 12:00):** The number of vehicles during Morning hours (06:00 - 12:00).

Reviewers report standing 13 hours in the queue to enter Poland, 5.5 hours (with 3 buses still ahead) to enter Ukraine, and a striking 12 hours despite only 5 buses in front. One traveler noted a bus sitting for 5 hours even though the crossing point was nearly empty, pointing to slow processing rather than heavy volume. Staff are repeatedly described as extremely slow and relaxed, which many see as the core problem. Beyond wait times, travelers highlight poor on-site conditions: piles of garbage, a non-working toilet (no water), a broken drink vending machine, and a complete lack of information about crossing times. Bus checks add delays too — one review mentions the bus being X-rayed and sent to an inspection pit. Queues can build fast: one traveler went from 12th in line to 7 buses behind them within an hour. Practical tips from reviewers: expect roughly 4 hours to clear both Ukrainian and Polish control on a good night, arrive late evening (around 22:30) to be near the front, and aim to pass the Polish side before the shift change. Bring your own water, snacks, and patience, since facilities cannot be relied upon. ⭐ 1.6/5 7 reviews ## User Reviews ### Reviews about the checkpoint Hrushiv, 1.8 ★★☆☆☆ 11 reviews All Positive Negative Наталія ★☆☆☆☆ Автобус стоїть уже 5 годин.
