Into Europe
European removals, handled end to end
When a home or a business moves abroad, we run it as a proper European removal — packed here, driven to the Channel and on to the door, with the paperwork handled and the route planned.
International removals are a long-standing part of what Wynnes does. A family relocating abroad, a business setting up overseas, a second home being furnished — a move like this needs more than a van. It needs proper packing, an inventory, customs paperwork and a planned road route. We pack in the UK, load, and head for the M25 and the Channel, crossing at Dover or by the Eurotunnel at Folkestone before driving on to the door at the other end.
Where we move
We run regular European routes to four countries, each framed as removals to the destination — France, Spain, Italy and Portugal. Every one has its own page setting out the road route, the regions we reach and how the paperwork works:
- Removals to France — Paris, Normandy and the south — down to the Channel, over by ferry or Eurotunnel, then onto the French autoroutes.
- Removals to Spain — Madrid, Barcelona and the Costas — the long run down through France to the border, then on to the coast.
- Removals to Italy — Milan, Florence and Rome — a planned road move down through France and over the Alps by the Fréjus or Mont Blanc tunnel.
- Removals to Portugal — Lisbon, Porto and the Algarve — the Atlantic corridor across France and Spain to the far south-west.
Collections across the UK
A move abroad often involves more than one collection — a second home, or belongings held elsewhere. As well as London we collect across the UK, from London, Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh and the regions between, and build additional collections into the plan rather than leaving you to arrange them separately. Countries beyond the four above, and destinations further afield, are arranged on request.
Customs and paperwork after Brexit
Moving to an EU country is no longer just a drive to the coast. Your goods need a customs declaration and a full inventory, and used household effects can usually come in under transfer-of-residence relief when you are moving your main home and the paperwork is right. We prepare the declaration and the transit documents, tell you what to sign and supply, and manage the border so your load is not left waiting.
Homes, part-loads and businesses
We move whole-home contents, part-loads and smaller commercial moves. A full home often travels as a dedicated load; a part-load may share the vehicle with other consignments heading the same way to keep the cost sensible. Furniture is dismantled and protected, fragile things packed with a labelled inventory, and if your dates do not line up, our secure storage bridges the gap. Closer to home, our house and business removals cover the UK side.
International
European removals — your questions
Do you handle the customs paperwork for a move to Europe?
Yes. Since Brexit, moving household goods to an EU country needs a customs declaration and a detailed inventory, and used belongings can often come in under transfer-of-residence relief when you are moving your main home. We prepare the declarations and transit documents and tell you exactly what to provide.
Which European countries do you cover?
We run regular removals to France, Spain, Italy and Portugal — the four European destinations we are asked for most. Each has its own page with the route, the regions we cover and how the customs side works. Other European countries, and further afield, are arranged on request.
Can you collect from anywhere in the UK?
Yes. We collect across London and the UK — from the major cities and the regions — and build additional collections into the plan where a move involves more than one address, rather than leaving you to arrange them separately.
Do you move both homes and businesses abroad?
Both. Households relocating and smaller commercial moves travel the same corridor into Europe. We scope the load, the packing and the paperwork to what you are actually moving.
