European removals from Kent

Removals from Kent to France, Spain, Italy and Portugal.

Four countries, one way of working. Our European removals from Kent start with a look round your house and a written quote, cross the Channel from Dover or Folkestone, and finish with the inventory checked off at your new front door. Pick a route below to see what that move involves.

Routes · 3 destination corridors

Three roads out of Kent,
four countries at the end.

Every international move we run from Kent follows one of three roads. Swipe through the cards on a phone, or use the country list further down if you already know where you're going.

Corridor · 01

Channel

The short crossing

France. Dover and Folkestone are on Kent's doorstep, so for most of the county the crossing is the easy bit. The work goes into access at the French end — city flats, village streets, farm tracks.

Corridor · 03

Italian

Over the Alps

Italy. Down through France and over or through the mountains. Most of the planning goes into the last few streets — historic centres, hill-town lanes and old stairwells.

Outside Kent

European removals from the rest of Britain, via Kent.

Kent is where we are based and where most of our collections happen. But the Channel crossings we use are here too, so a move from further afield simply starts with a longer drive down to Kent. We collect from across Great Britain, London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Bristol among them.

A removal from London to France, from Manchester to Spain, from Birmingham to Italy or from Glasgow to Portugal works exactly like one from Maidstone. Same survey, same written quote, same inventory. The lorry simply starts further from the Channel, and the quote reflects the extra road. Leeds, Edinburgh and Bristol households get the same treatment.

Every route

What a removal from Kent to Europe includes

  • A survey or photo review before anything is quoted.
  • A numbered inventory, checked at loading in Kent and again at delivery.
  • Customs paperwork arranged through our customs agent.
  • Goods-in-transit cover from door to door, stated on the quote.
  • Packing, dismantling and reassembly if you want them.
  • Storage at either end when the dates do not line up.

Pickup · Across Kent county

Where in Kent
do we collect from?

The whole county. A Tunbridge Wells townhouse, a Margate flat, an Ashford new-build or a farmhouse outside Maidstone — the process is the same. What changes is the access, so each town below says what we usually look out for.

  • Ashford

    mid kent

    Close to the M20 and the Folkestone terminal. New-build estates with tight turning heads are the usual access question.

  • Bexley

    se london adjacent

    Historic Kent, now a London borough. Semis and terraces near the A2, with permit parking on some streets.

  • Bromley

    se london adjacent

    Historic Kent, now a London borough. Larger family houses, plus flats around the town centre with shared stairwells.

  • Canterbury

    east kent

    Cathedral city with old streets inside the walls and family homes outside them. Parking in the centre needs planning.

  • Dartford

    north kent

    Where Kent meets London at the river crossing. Flats and family homes, many with allocated parking only.

  • Dover

    east kent

    The ferry port itself. Hillside terraces with steep streets — tell us about the steps.

  • Faversham

    mid kent

    Market town with Victorian terraces and narrow hallways. We measure the big pieces on survey.

  • Folkestone

    east kent

    Home of the Channel Tunnel terminal. Seafront flats and hillside houses in roughly equal measure.

  • Gravesend

    north kent

    Thames-side town with terraces, new flats and a lot of on-street parking. We check where the lorry can stand.

  • Maidstone

    mid kent

    The county town. Everything from town-centre flats to farmhouses in the surrounding villages.

  • Margate

    east kent

    Seafront flats, tall terraces and very little off-street parking. Stairs are the usual story.

  • Ramsgate

    east kent

    Regency terraces and harbour-side flats. Tall houses with narrow stairs are common.

  • Rochester

    north kent

    Medway town with a historic high street, conservation streets and newer estates on the edges.

  • Sevenoaks

    west kent

    Large family houses with long drives in the villages around the town. A survey is usually worth it.

  • Sittingbourne

    mid kent

    Practical family homes and newer estates. Usually straightforward access.

  • Tonbridge

    west kent

    Commuter town with a mix of Victorian semis and modern estates. Watch for narrow side returns.

  • Tunbridge Wells

    west kent

    Townhouses with front steps, period flats with tight stairwells, and larger houses on the outskirts.

  • Whitstable

    east kent

    Seaside town with small cottages on narrow lanes near the harbour and bigger houses up the hill.
