European Removals
Moving to and from Europe is an area of our business that we put a significant amount of time and care into. Our dedicated European removals team will find the solution that works best for you.
HANDLING YOUR EUROPEAN MOVE
We use our own employees and vehicles to carry out your European removals, so you can relax knowing your move will be handled by trained GB Liners professionals. We will still be able to handle your move if you are moving to or from somewhere off the beaten track, as we work with trusted partners who we have built relationships with over a number of years. Nowhere is too much trouble.
Our European Removal Services
Our range of European removal services are designed to suit every type of move. Whatever your needs, our team is here to support you.
Direct Moving Service
Comprehensive, door-to-door removals from the UK to Europe and vice versa. Your dedicated moving team will carefully pack, load, transport, and deliver your belongings to your new home.
Customs & Documentation
Navigating customs paperwork can be complex, especially post-Brexit. GB Liners’ experienced team can support you with documentation and clearance procedures, ensuring your goods move smoothly between countries without delay.
Part Load Options
Not got much to move? We can still help. For smaller deliveries, share the trip with other consignments for a cost-effective way of getting your goods to your destination.
Currency Exchange Support
One of our long-standing partners is Currencies Direct, who provide support exchanging currencies in overseas moves. Take advantage of excellent exchange rates, no transfer fees, and personal assistance and advice from your account manager.
Packing & Storage
Choose from a full packing service, fragile packing, or supply of materials for self-packing. We also offer secure short- and long-term storage options to help keep your belongings safe.
Moving With Pets
If you have furry (or scaly!) members of the family to safely escort to their destination, we can recommend our trusted partner, PetAir, for support and advice on doing so safely and with specialised care, even for the most difficult of passengers.
TRANSFER OF RESIDENCE (ToR) FOR MOVES INTO THE UK
If you’re moving to the UK from Europe, you will need to apply for a transfer of residence to move your household goods tax-free. It’s important to start this process as soon as you start your move, as it can take weeks for a decision to be made during peak moving season.
Once approved, you will receive a ToR approval letter that must be shared with our team. If you have problems with this process, you can contact the TOR hotline on 0300 322 9434 (option 2 and then option 2).
