We offer two main ways to move your things to Europe. With a dedicated vehicle, the van or lorry is used only for your move. We collect on the day you choose and drive straight to your new address. This suits full house moves, tight dates and anyone who wants the fastest and simplest option.
With a shared part load, your things travel on a vehicle with other customers' goods heading the same way. You pay only for the space you use, so it is often the lower-cost choice. It suits smaller loads, such as a flat, a student room or a few pieces of furniture. Delivery dates are a little more flexible, as the route is planned around several drops.
Not sure which to choose? Tell us roughly how much you are moving, where you are going and when you need to be there. We will explain both options and help you pick the one that fits your budget and your plans.
Since the UK left the EU, moving your household goods into Europe needs customs paperwork. You will usually need a full list of the items you are sending, a copy of your passport and proof of your new address abroad. Some countries also ask for proof that you are moving there to live, such as a work contract or rental agreement.
Many people can bring their own used household goods into the EU without paying duty under transfer of residence relief. To qualify, you usually need to have lived outside the EU for at least twelve months and to have owned the goods for at least six months. The details vary by country, so always check the current rules before you move.
Our team helps you prepare the forms and tells you what each country asks for. Getting the paperwork right early helps avoid delays at the border and keeps your delivery on track.
Start by sorting your things. Moving abroad is a good time to sell, donate or recycle what you no longer need, and a smaller load costs less to move. Make a note of high-value items and anything fragile, so we can plan extra protection for them.
Check access at both ends. Many European cities have narrow streets, old buildings with no lift, or strict parking rules. Let us know about stairs, lifts and parking so we can send the right vehicle and plan any extra help. If you would like us to pack for you, our packing service covers everything, or just the fragile items.
If your new home is not ready, we can hold your things in secure storage until it is. To get a quote, call 07428474474 or 02080444474, or send your details through our contact page.
