How We Price Your European Move
Moving across borders requires special consideration and planning. At Hauling, we structure our pricing for European moves based on our residential moving rates plus the additional costs associated with the distance and logistics of an international move. Here’s how we determine the price for your European move:
- Volume and Type of Items:
- The volume and type of items you are moving significantly impact the cost. Larger or more fragile items may require additional care and resources.
- Distance:
- The distance between your current location and your destination in Europe is a crucial factor. We charge an additional £2 per mile per van to cover the extra fuel and travel time.
- Channel Crossing:
- The cost of crossing the English Channel is also included in the final price. This covers ferry or Eurotunnel fees.
- Customs and Documentation:
- Moving to another country involves customs clearance and specific documentation. Any fees associated with customs and the preparation of necessary paperwork will be included in the final cost.
- Number of Vehicles Required:
- Depending on the size of your move, we determine the number of moving vehicles needed to transport your belongings efficiently.
- Additional Services:
- Any additional services, such as packing, unpacking, storage, or specialised handling of valuable items, will be factored into the overall cost.
- Tolls, Permits, and Charges:
- Any tolls, permits, parking fees, or other charges incurred during the move will be included in the final price.
