A seamless A to Z Relocation Process, Delivered in a Few Steps
How to Arrange Your International Move
-
An international move with us can be organised only after a thorough inspection with a professional surveyor has taken place. Just get your appointment pinned for a day when you have the time to discuss all your needs and specific requests.
The removals expert will note down all the information required to plan the process of moving to Europe from UK. Soon after, we will send you a free, no-obligation quote with a detailed breakdown of the cost. You can always make alterations to your booking and ask for additional assistance before moving day arrives.
-
You will have to provide the international movers team with a sufficient parking space (6-8 metres per van). The international house removals specialists will get on with the job, according to the customised plan, they have devised with you in advance. They will make an inventory while packing securely your belongings in moving boxes and quality packing materials. They will also label accordingly each package for extra clarity.
Furniture will be dismantled, if applicable, soft items will be protected with a cover and other bulky furniture will be boxed or wrapped in removals blankets. Your movable property will be loaded with care in the vans and all measures will be taken to secure each piece safely with ropes.
-
The load will be transported under full international moving insurance if we do the packing of your goods. Make an additional request for a packing service and don't worry about mishaps or damaged items. The international movers and packers are seasoned drivers and have years of experience travelling on international roads across EU borders.
They use reliable navigation and will take the most direct route to your overseas destination. The Fantastic pros are quick at problem-solving should they come across road repairs or unanticipated traffic jams. This means that they will do their best to deliver your belongings in sync with the pre-planned schedule.
-
A parking spot at the delivery location is also a must and this is your responsibility. So, to avoid delays and inconvenient events in a foreign country, do your homework and contact the relevant authorities if needs be. Upon arrival of the removals vans, you or a representative will be expected to be present on site and instruct the technicians during the unloading process.
Each box and piece of furniture will be placed in their designated rooms. The international movers will unpack everything and piece disassembled furniture together if this has been included in the international house removals service. After all, this is the only way that you could inspect the condition of your belongings while the removals operatives are still present.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is your international removals service insured?
A: Yes, moving to a country in the EU is covered by the “goods in transit” insurance. Insurance for moving to countries outside of the EU has to be arranged separately.
Q: What if I haven’t got an address yet in the country I’m moving to?
A: We can provide you with removal and storage service as well. It will help you with securing your belongings in a storage facility in the destination country until you are ready to move to your new property abroad. You can choose between long term storage and short term storage service.
Q: How long in advance I need to contact you before moving day?
A: Moving to a different country requires planning, so we recommend that you book a survey with us well in advance. Some clients choose to discuss the process and learn about the cost of the service as early as 3 months prior to moving day. But we can organise everything at a much shorter notice, too.
Q: Do you provide international removals services to countries outside the EU?
A: Presently, we only offer European removals options. However, in the future, we do plan to expand our overseas moving solutions worldwide by working with trusted partners in this sector.
