Professional International Removals to France & Spain
As the founders of French Moves, we have dedicated the past two decades to perfecting the art of international removals, specialising exclusively in relocations to France and Spain. Our operational base spans two strategic locations: one just south-west of the M25 in Surrey and another in south-west France, midway between Bordeaux and Toulouse. This dual presence enables us to offer seamless, door-to-door logistics for domestic and commercial moves. Our fleet combines versatility with capacity, ranging from compact transit vans for restricted access to high-capacity 'Road Trains' equipped with tail lifts and demountable bodies. Every move begins with a comprehensive pre-move survey, ensuring precise logistical planning and transparent communication of responsibilities between our team and clients.We maintain full control of every move without subcontracting, providing a single point of accountability from initial inquiry to final delivery. Our storage solutions in both the UK and France offer flexibility for clients requiring temporary or long-term warehousing. With expertise in handling complex international logistics, including customs documentation and secure transport of fragile items, we prioritise the safety and efficiency of each consignment. Client education forms a critical component of our service, with detailed online resources covering packing techniques, regulatory requirements, and post-move administrative procedures. Our commitment to quality is reflected in our track record of successful relocations and sustained operational excellence over two decades.
