London to Europe · North London
We work in Barnet every week — london's largest borough by population — semi-detached suburbia, hampstead garden suburb and green belt at the top. European removals is priced against that reality, not a national average.

| Three-bed dedicated van | £2,150 | 3–6 days | Full Luton, two crew for the whole journey, loading and delivery days at both ends. |
| Part load, per cubic metre | £95 | By schedule | Shared space on a van already running the route — the cheapest option if the date can flex. |

European quotes are fixed once the inventory is agreed from a video survey. Crossing, tolls, driver overnights and the return leg are itemised, never bundled into a vague total. Domestic prices include VAT; business invoices are plus VAT at 20%.
Working in Barnet
The stock in Barnet is 1930s semis with bay windows, mock-tudor detached houses, garden-suburb arts and crafts homes and new towers at colindale, and the mix changes street by street — Colindale (NW9), East Finchley (N2) and Finchley (N3) each behave differently on the day.
Parking is the job before the job here: mostly driveway parking, but golders green and finchley central have tight cpzs and busy a-road frontages. Locally that means every new block requires booked goods lifts and loading bays; estate roads are gated and narrower terraced streets near the station with permit bays; driveways further out. Barnet sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Most flats in Barnet are leasehold, and managing agents here routinely ask for a public liability certificate and a method note before a contractor drills anything. We send both with the booking confirmation.
Coaching villages along the Great North Road, filled in by Metroland semis after the Northern line arrived in the 1930s. That history is why Barnet property behaves the way it does today.
Scope
Method
Step 1
A walk-through call fixes the inventory and the van size, so the crossing is booked against a real volume.
Step 2
Crew hours, road miles, crossing, tolls and overnights on separate lines — no single opaque figure.
Step 3
Export-grade cartons and edge protection, because a European run is days of road vibration, not an hour across town.
Step 4
The same crew drives the load; you get progress updates and a delivery window as the run progresses.
Step 5
Furniture placed room by room at the destination, cartons unpacked if that was booked, packaging taken away.
Coverage
Also in this borough
Full home moves with packing, dismantling and a fixed price agreed from a video survey.
Export-grade cartons, wardrobe boxes and fragile wrapping for long crossings.
Part loads and single-item shipments where a full removal lorry is not needed.
A van and driver for the load you have, priced by size rather than by guesswork.
Flats and apartments cleared with stair, lift and parking access planned in advance.
Studio or one-bed to France or Belgium starts at £745 in Barnet, and the ladder runs up to £65/hr + £1.50/mile for the largest job on the table above. Volume, distance and overnights. A northern-France run is one crossing and one overnight; Spain or Italy is a second driver rest period and double the road miles. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: EN4, EN5, N11, N12, N14, N2, N20, N3, NW11 and NW4 and the rest of the Barnet outward codes. On the ground that includes Colindale, East Finchley, Finchley, Friern Barnet and New Southgate, Golders Green and Hendon.
Dedicated vans usually need seven to ten days' notice; part loads depend on the next van scheduled to that country, typically within a fortnight. North London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Mostly driveway parking, but Golders Green and Finchley Central have tight CPZs and busy A-road frontages. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Barnet and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. 1930s semis with bay windows, mock-Tudor detached houses, garden-suburb Arts and Crafts homes and new towers at Colindale is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Goods in transit and public liability cover run for the whole journey, and the written inventory doubles as the customs list required at the border. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Barnet tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
Two crew travel with the load for a dedicated van; part loads are consolidated at our depot and delivered by the driver running that route. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Barnet postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Customs duties or import taxes levied by the destination country, Storage at either end, which is quoted separately by the week and Disconnection of gas appliances or dismantling of fitted kitchens. If something on that list turns up in Barnet, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

Booked them for one Bed Flat move from Hammersmith to Epsom. They packed all my stuff and loaded in less than 2 hours. I was also able to travel in the van to the destination. Thanks to Alan and his colleague. Forgot his name.
We had a good experience with this company for our move from London to Spain. Everything went well. They also helped us with our move out clean.
