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.

They were stars of the highest calibre, so organised and helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
It was a long day since due to a national banking system problem the legal completion was late and they waited over 4 hours at my new property before the keys were released. Once we were in the four guys worked as a team and quickly, though with great care, moved me in. I could not have wished for a better removal experience. All the guys were great but their leader George was a brilliant communicator and made sure I was okay throughout the process.

Email to Sam
Thank you for your help in make my house move go as smoothly as possible. I would also like to convey my personal thanks to the team that physically moved my belongings, George, Dave, Duncan and Mike. They were all brilliant throughout the process and nothing was too much trouble. As you are aware I was victim of late key syndrome. With that in mind I knew the lads were quite entitled to call it a day and finish the move another day. However, they were patient and gave me enough time to thankfully obtain the keys. Once we were in it was amazing how efficiently they worked as a team shifting my gear. Despite the time they took great care and worked with me on what went where etc.
I have been a senior manager in a service industry and trust me these people were top notch. George kept liaising with me so fantastic coordination and communication skills.
I will make it my business to recommend Britannia Bradshaw to all of my friends and colleagues.
Thank you again
