European removals
While there is currently free movement of European Union (EU) and European Free Trade Agreement (EFTA) nationals in the EU, Switzerland and Norway, there's more involved with moving in Europe than just packing your bags and arriving. We understand the European market like few other removal companies, and have been safely moving household and personal effects for thousands of customers to every destination in Europe including Switzerland, France, Germany, The Netherlands, and Ireland for generations.
Britannia Bradshaw are members of the British Association of Removers. This helps gives you confidence that you are dealing with the UK's market leaders in European removals.
Swiss & European Union removals specialists
Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Zug, and all points in Switzerland, France, Germany and The Netherlands are our speciality. Our removals teams are in Switzerland, Germany, France, The Netherlands, and Belgium on a weekly basis, and our removal trucks can go anywhere in Europe.
Removals from Europe to the UK
Return loads to the UK are not a problem. Our European removals team is continually on the move between Europe and the UK, and we can arrange a convenient and cost-effective time for your European removal to the UK. This is often a preferable solution for customers over local firms in Europe, as we don't like to bring our vehicles back empty.
Brexit & European removals
Brexit may impact your removal to Europe, or Europe to the UK, including the transport of your belongings.
If you're moving from Europe or an EU country - or moving to Europe and the EU to the UK - you probably have questions regarding the transport and importing of your belongings to your new country.
During the transition period (scheduled to end on 31 December 2020), there are currently no changes to the free movement of people and goods between the European Union and the United Kingdom.
Should the United Kingdom decide to end the transition period early, requirements and processes may change. We will update our customers if circumstances and regulations change.
Packing for your European move
Packing for a European move is a specialist skill, and Britannia Bradshaw European Removers have experienced and professionally trained staff to provide this service for you. Using a modern range of environmentally friendly, purpose-made packing materials, our team will arrive punctually at your home to prepare your possessions for collection. Detailed inventories are prepared for the onward move to your destination or for storage.

How can we improve our service?
When downsizing, do an in person tour rather relying than video tour to get a more accurate impression of volume and accessibility advice - eg if wardrobes etc need to be dismantled beforehand..
