You will also want to know how long the removals process is going to take. For a Full Container Load, allow a door-to-door transit time of 6-8 weeks. A Shared Container Shipment – known as groupage – will almost certainly be cheaper, but will take longer, 10-12 weeks door-to-door.

customer testimonials

"Just a short line to praise the team who moved us recently from Kinross to Zurich.  Without exception they were helpful, cheerful and worked almost non-stop.  In particular, Sid, who was with us from the entire 4 days, worked over and above the call of duty and should be praised for his efforts."
