Professional Removals to Greece: Mainland and Island Relocations

Moving to Greece can mean very different things depending on your final destination. Some customers are relocating to apartments or family homes in Athens and Thessaloniki, while others are moving to the Peloponnese, northern Greece or one of the country’s numerous inhabited islands. This makes choosing the right transport method particularly important.

Container shipping gives us the flexibility to accommodate both smaller part loads and substantial household moves. Depending on the volume, belongings can travel within a shared container or a dedicated sole-use 20ft, 40ft or high-cube container. For suitable relocations, dedicated vans and removal trucks provide another option, allowing belongings to travel overland through Europe.

Customers using our container services can pack and export wrap their belongings themselves, provided everything is prepared to a good standard suitable for international container shipping. Alternatively, we can provide professional packing and export wrapping for some or all of your belongings.

For road removals, furniture and other household items can be protected using professional removal blankets and appropriate securing equipment within the removal vehicle.

Island removals can require additional planning because access and delivery conditions vary considerably between destinations. Providing your complete destination and details of the property at quotation stage allows us to consider the entire journey and recommend the most suitable service from the outset.

We also regularly assist people returning home after years spent in Britain. A Greek national who originally arrived in the UK with relatively few possessions may now be returning with furniture, appliances and everything accumulated during years of family life, turning the journey home into a substantial international household removal.

With depots throughout the UK and Europe, we can coordinate collection from anywhere in Britain and arrange transportation and onward delivery throughout Greece.

Container and Road Removal Services to Greece

The most suitable way to complete your UK to Greece removal depends on the volume and weight of your belongings, final destination, property access, dates and budget. Our combination of container shipping and European road transport allows us to tailor the service rather than forcing every customer into the same type of move.

Part-Load & Groupage Container Shipping

Ideal for: Smaller and medium-sized moves where you don’t need an entire shipping container.

Our part-load container service to Greece allows household belongings to travel alongside other compatible consignments, providing a cost-effective solution when you don’t require the capacity of your own container.

You pay for the space your belongings require rather than reserving an unnecessarily large container. Your consignment is individually identified before being consolidated with other customers’ goods for international shipping.

All goods transported by container need to be properly packed and export wrapped to a good standard suitable for container shipping. Customers can choose to pack and export wrap their belongings themselves, or European Removal Services can provide a professional packing and export wrapping service.

A combination is also possible. You may prefer to prepare some of your belongings yourself while leaving furniture, fragile pieces or more difficult items for our experienced removal team to professionally pack and export wrap.

For customers moving to a Greek island, we’ll also consider the final destination, property access and most appropriate delivery arrangements when planning the service.

Key Considerations When Moving to Greece

  • Residence Requirements:

    UK nationals whose residence in Greece was established before the end of the Brexit transition period may have rights under the Withdrawal Agreement. People relocating after that point generally need to follow the immigration arrangements applying to third-country nationals and obtain the appropriate permission for the purpose of their stay.

  • Transfer of Residence:

    Greece has specific provisions for people moving their permanent home from abroad. The Greek Independent Authority for Public Revenue (AADE) states that an individual who has maintained their habitual abode abroad for at least two years and transfers it to Greece to settle permanently may qualify for customs and tax exemptions on eligible personal belongings.

  • Relocation Certificate:

    Qualifying movers can obtain a Certificate of Transfer of Habitual Abode, commonly referred to as a relocation certificate, from the competent Greek consular authority. The certificate is valid for 12 months, during which eligible belongings can be cleared together or in separate instalments.

  • Customs Procedures:

    Household goods arriving from Great Britain are entering the EU from a third country, meaning customs formalities apply. Where the Greek transfer-of-residence provisions are satisfied, qualifying household possessions can benefit from customs duty and tax exemptions.

  • Planning Island Delivery:

    If your destination is one of the Greek islands, tell us exactly where you’re moving at quotation stage. Road access, parking, gradients and the suitability of larger removal vehicles at the final property can all influence how we organise your delivery.

Why Choose European Removal Services for Your Move to Greece

  • Moving to Greece can involve anything from a direct European road removal to a container relocation to mainland Greece or one of the Greek islands. With more than 30 years of international removals experience, European Removal Services can tailor the transport method around your actual destination rather than treating every removal to Greece from the UK in the same way.

    Our options include part-load container shipping, dedicated sole-use 20ft, 40ft and high-cube containers, part-load road removals and dedicated Luton, 7.5 tonne and 18 tonne removal vehicles.

     

  • For container shipping, customers can pack and export wrap their own belongings to a suitable standard or use our professional packing and export wrapping service. For road removals, furniture and household items can be protected using professional removal blankets and securing equipment.

    Combined with secure storage and flexible door-to-door services, this allows us to create a practical solution for mainland and island moves alike.
