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.
European removals from Kent
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.
Route pages
The short crossing. Most of the planning goes into access at the French end.
The long road south to the costas, the cities and the white villages.
Over the Alps, then the hardest part: historic centres and old stairwells.
The furthest route, through France and Spain to Lisbon, Porto or the Algarve.

The long road south
Spain and Portugal. The full length of France, then across the border to the costas, the cities or the Algarve. Long enough that packing and planning matter more than anywhere else we go.

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
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.

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

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