London → Europe
Removals from London to France
France is the move our European arm makes most — a Parisian apartment, a farmhouse in the Dordogne, a business relocating to Lyon. Wilson plans the whole journey from your London door to the French one.
A move to France rewards planning. The distances inside the country are large, rural addresses can be hard to reach with a full-size vehicle, and the paperwork since Brexit needs doing properly rather than hopefully. We handle the London end with the same care as any of our house moves — surveyed, packed and protected — then carry it across on a planned road route with a crew who know the drill at the border.
Whether you are taking a flat's worth of furniture to Paris or a whole house to the south, we scope the job around what is actually being moved and where it is going, and we keep you updated through each stage rather than leaving you wondering where your belongings are.
The route
The London-to-France route
We load in London and run out via the orbital and radial roads to the Kent coast, crossing by ferry from Dover or on the Eurotunnel shuttle from Folkestone. From Calais the French autoroute network fans out — the A1 down to Paris, the A26 and beyond toward the east, or the long run south on the A10 and A20 toward Bordeaux, the Dordogne and Provence. The exact routing depends on your destination and the consolidation schedule.
Where in France we move
- Paris & Île-de-France Apartment moves, access windows and courtyard logistics handled.
- Nouvelle-Aquitaine Bordeaux, the Dordogne and the south-west — a favourite for family relocations.
- Occitanie & Provence Toulouse, Montpellier and the Mediterranean south.
- Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Lyon, the Alps and the business corridor to the east.
Customs, handled
The paperwork for a French move
Since Brexit, a move to France means a customs declaration and an inventory for your household goods, and returning residents may qualify for relief on used personal effects. We will tell you plainly what is needed, help you prepare the documentation, and coordinate clearance so nothing sits stuck at the border. Timings depend on the route, the crossing and customs — your written quote sets out the process.
Why London moves to France
- A shorter, well-worn crossing that keeps a France move straightforward
- Strong demand from London households relocating to Paris and the south-west
- A route our European crews run regularly and know well
