Our client base covers everyone from families moving to France for a rustic life amongst olive groves, to young professionals relocating to Zurich for their careers. To say our client book is diverse is an indubitable understatement!
The U.K economy isn’t great right now, which is why heaps of folks are heading to pastures new throughout Europe, be it on a temporary basis or more permanently. Here are five of the top reasons behind some of our recent customers’ relocations to some of the most glorious (and unexpected!) spots on the continent.
1. Career change/job prospects
Travelling for work used to mean moving to the city or adding an hour onto the daily commute. These days, we meet hundreds of folks relocating to France, Belgium, Spain and loads of other promising European locales for work reasons. Contract work and international experience are becoming more attractive to prospective employers. A stint overseas could set you in fantastic stead for a position back home in due course.
2. Quality of family life
According to a 2011 article in the Guardian, the U.K has the worst quality of life in Europe based on cost of living, average holidays per year, number of sunny days, working hours, life expectancy and about ten other deciding factors. One in ten Brits are seriously considering emigration or temporary relocation to another country to access a better standard of living for themselves and their families.
3. A change is as good as a rest
The idea of someone living the same life for their whole life (as most of our parents did) isn’t practical anymore. We don’t typically work for the same company in the same role living in the same house. We travel, we live, we work, we explore and make changes that previous generations couldn’t have easily made. A year living in Bruges – why not?
4. The world is getting smaller
Just a hundred years ago it took two days to get from London to Bristol on a fast horse. The option is still there today, but at less than two hours the train seems more appropriate! The great age of travel has made every corner of the world more accessible for us all, so why not make the most of it?
5. Retirement
It used to mean heading out to pasture in the potting shed, but these days retirement can be the best years of your life! A 2010 article in the Telegraph set Spain high on the list of retiree destinations. In fact, the Mediterranean in general ranked high in terms of affordability, ex-pat integration and quality of life.
Fun in the sun, a great career move or just more time to do the things you like – what’s stopping you? Our removals service extends far and wide over the European continent, making it as easy as possible for folks just like you to pick up, pack up and head off hassle-free!

European Removal Experts Offer Two Weeks’ Long and Short Term Storage
European Removal Experts, a London-based removals company serving clients moving to France, Italy and across the EU for domestic, business and educational purposes, are offering Long and Short Term Storage for removals to and from major European countries.
European Removal Experts operates throughout the UK and the EU to offer competitive rates on student, home, business, furniture and office removals, as well as a range of packing, courier, ‘man with a van’, shipping and storage services. For removal trips to and from France, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands, European Removal Experts is now offering two weeks’ worth of Long and Short Term Storage to make relocating around Europe more cost-efficient and convenient.
For door-to-door removals in fully-insured vans with a generous capacity, whether for full or part loads, European Removal Experts can take and store your items whilst you wait for them to be taken to the destination in question. This two weeks’ Long and Short Term Storage policy applies to loads of any size, for single items and entire home removals, so all European Removal Experts’s customers can benefit from this offer.
“We understand just how difficult and stressful it can be if work or domesticity requires you to move around Europe, and we aim to cut out the nonsense to make moving around Europe a simple and straightforward process,” comments Christian Popovici of European Removal Experts. “In conjunction with having vehicles running every day, which can deliver your goods on certain dates should the matter be urgent, we endeavour to provide customers with an affordable service that works for them rather than against them. For this reason, we hope that the introduction of this new offer will encourage more families, students and offices moving around the EU and UK to consider us as their convenient removals company of choice.”
Learn French and Make Life Easier
Moving to France is a dream which many of us have. For the majority, it will remain nothing more than a dream, but every year thousands of British people pack up and move across the channel to start a new life. If you are moving to France, are you one of those people who doesn’t bother to learn the language, hoping that you will be able to get by with a mixture of barely remembered phrases from school and hand signals? Or do you think you will meet enough English speaking locals, which means that you will be okay? If so, perhaps you should have a rethink before moving to France.
The reality is, you will find very few people who speak English, particularly in the rural areas. Even if you live in Paris, you will find few French people who are willing to converse in English, even if they are capable! The French are fiercely proud of their language, and just as we do here, they expect foreigners to be able to speak French.
This is one aspect which many who are moving to France from Britain overlook. It’s easy to see why. You can get so carried away with the idea of moving to France that you overlook – or even ignore – the language barrier. You will find it so much easier if you are moving to France to learn just a few basic sentences, so if this sounds like you, book some lessons with a French speaking tutor and you’ll be set for your new life.

Lessen the Stress of Moving Abroad with European Removal Experts
Research suggests that moving house can be one the most stressful events that a person will ever go through, right up there with divorce and even bereavement. After the stress and excitement of viewing new properties, making bids, and finally securing your new home, you’ll have a lot of work to do.
Relocating involves packing, getting rid of unwanted possessions, notifying family, friends, banks, and utility companies of your move, cleaning your current house, organising the redirection of your post to your new address and, perhaps, finding and registering your children with new schools. The list can seem endless. And when you’re moving to another country the list can be even longer.
You may be moving to France or another European country for a new job, for a university education, for a change of scenery, for a change of pace after retirement, to relocate your business or simply to start a new life. Whatever your reasons, moving your furniture and other possessions to your new home should not add to your stress. European Removal Experts is a professional company that specializes in household and business removals to European destinations, such as France, Germany, Belgium and Italy.
If you are relocating to France, we offer door to door deliveries to and from London to a wide range of a wide range of French destinations, including Paris, Brittany, Alsace, and Corsica. So if you are looking for a professional, cost-effective and secure company to take care of your removals to France or any other European destination, contact European Removal Experts for a instant and free quote.
Use A Firm Experienced In Overseas Removals
You may have occasionally heard it declared that moving house can be one of the most stressful undertakings known to humankind. Admittedly this claim might be slightly over egging the cake – however, short of wars and natural disasters it does fairly succinctly capture the fact that moving house can be, and frequently is, very stressful. Add in the complications of not simply moving down the road or even to another UK town but to mainland Europe and clearly there is a whole new layer of potential trouble ahead.
Whether moving to France, moving to Germany or any other EU country, where you will benefit in making the whole experience much more straightforward is employing the services of a company that specialises in moving between mainland Europe and the UK. At European Removal Experts Ltd, we are a London based company that specialises in exactly this type of removal. In exactly the same way that you don’t visit the local English Chip shop for a sampling of Poulet et Frites, you shouldn’t be looking to a typical UK removal firm to help you navigate the roads and customs of moving to France.
The service offered is scalable to your needs and we offer removal of single items of furniture or complete or part loads to first, second or even third homes. Our service can assist in passing your belongings through customs with minimal effort and most importantly it can be ensured that either your handful of boxes or the entire house contents arrive at their destination when they are needed and in good order.
When moving to France or other European countries, the basic job of moving physical items may be the same, but the cultures, rules and expectations are not, so rather than be the guinea pig for a UK company to experiment with, choose a specialist provider.
Best European Capital Cities
If you are toying with the idea of relocating to France, making a new life in Holland or upping sticks to Germany, you will no doubt be wondering: which European capital is the best to live in?
Paris
Paris is often lauded as the greatest capital city in the world, never mind Europe. With incredible heritage, jaw-dropping monuments, outrageous nightlife, unrivalled cuisine and of course that famous , “je ne sais quoi”, the City of Lights is one capital that really does live up to its huge billing. Paris is without doubt one of Europe’s most vibrant, exciting and beautiful cities.
Amsterdam
Although significantly smaller than most other major European capitals, Amsterdam punches well above its weight. It is a city that is rightfully proud of its progressive social attitudes and this can be clearly seen with the ‘anything goes’ attitude that comes alive practically every single night. Indeed, it is often claimed that Amsterdam is “the most laid-back capital city in the world” – moving to Holland will let you see just how true that statement is for yourself.
Berlin
Berlin has a rich, recent and incredibly relevant cultural heritage and stands proudly at the geographical centre of Europe. Berlin’s dichotomy makes it an incredibly engaging place to live, being at the same time safe and edgy; sensible and naughty. Truly; few cities can match Berlin’s enigmatic qualities.
No matter if you’re moving to Berlin, Paris or Amsterdam; make us here at European Removal Experts your first port of call.
Expert Advice On Moving To France
Moving to France has become increasingly popular with those who are looking for a new life away from all the stresses and strains of modern life in Britain. Many people who are planning on moving to France are attracted by the promise of living in a rural idyll which they may have discovered when they were on holiday.
The Baby Boomer generation are leading the way when it comes to moving abroad. They are now either retired or approaching the day when they can finish work, the prospect of selling the house now the kids have moved out and buying something smaller is an attractive one. Property prices are generally a lot lower in France than they are in Britain, particularly in rural areas, so if you are in the position where you can buy a dream home without having a mortgage around your neck.
If you are serious about relocating to France you will have planned just about everything by now. At this stage you would have consulted estate agents and solicitors, essential in any move of course, but if you are moving to France you will be aware of the differences in law relating to property sales. Another expert you may need to talk to is the person who will be transporting your belongings when you are moving to France or moving to Switzerland or anywhere else in Europe. This is where European Removal Experts come in. They will be able to deal with your move in a professional manner, leaving you stress free to begin your new life.
Moving to Europe – Trust the Removal Professionals
Thinking about moving abroad? Lots of us Brits do, especially after a great holiday. Work is increasingly global and mobile, so it’s more and more common to up sticks and do a stint overseas. No matter where you’re planning on relocating to, you might be thinking about moving to France or maybe moving to Germany, it will be a fantastic adventure. Don’t be naïve though. You’re bound to experience a bit of culture shock and a little homesickness at the very least. If you’re serious about being an expat, do your research first into the laws, customs and language of the country you intend to move to. Don’t get caught out by common pitfalls and if you need to brush up your language skills, get a head start before you leave. There are plenty of night school conversational language classes or you could even hire a private tutor.
Packing up your life in this country and moving to France or moving to Germany takes a fair bit of planning. You’re not Dick Whittington. You can’t just amble off with your knapsack to seek your fortune. It’s a bit more complicated than that. However, with the right help and a good removal company, it needn’t be a huge drama.
A professional removal company will help you pack up your home and transport your possessions safely and securely. Even valuable and delicate ones. They can move these items by boat, road or air. However they do it, you can trust them to get your possessions safely to the other end.
Moving goods across borders can be complex, so a move abroad is not quite as straightforward as just moving house in the UK. Make sure you understand the implications of what you are transporting and fill out any forms upfront to avoid your possessions being delayed at border crossings. Don’t forget to take out insurance, just in case anything goes wrong. Then once everything arrives safely in your new country you can unpack and start enjoying your new life.
