Expert international removals to Germany

The cost of removals to Germany isn’t one-size-fits-all. It depends on a few key details. Think distance, how much you’re taking, the size of the van you’ll need, and whether you want help with packing or furniture assembly.

This depends on the international removal company you choose, but with AnyVan, every move includes expert transportation, loading, and unloading – plus all ferry fees and tolls covered as standard. You’ll also have a dedicated moving expert to guide you through the process, with customs agents included to handle any tricky paperwork.

Yes! We can offer a packing service. You just need to let us know if that’s what you want when you fill in your inventory. If you let us know, we'll take care of it all: providing the packing materials, packing up your home, and even dismantling and reassembling any furniture you want us to. So you can kick back and enjoy your new home. Remember, you’ll still need to unpack your items yourself, but finding the perfect spot for everything is the best bit of making a house a home.

The main thing is to always do your research properly. We always recommend getting a couple of quotes from international removal companies so that you can compare - just make sure you’re not comparing apples with oranges!

Moving abroad can feel like a big deal - and honestly, it is. From sorting your utility accounts to securing permits for the removal van, there’s a lot to think about. But don’t let the admin put you off. We’ve got loads of tips to help you prepare for international removals, and most people who’ve made the leap will tell you: it’s 100% worth it.

First things first, you need to do some serious planning as different destinations will have different requirements. Consider how long you plan to live abroad - do you really need to bring everything with you? If not, it might be cheaper to keep some of your stuff in storage. 

No, you don’t have to pay customs duties or VAT if you’re moving your primary residence and your personal items meet the duty-free rules. This means you’ve owned them for more than six months and you’re bringing them into the country within twelve months of arriving. So if your favourite chair has been with you a while, it travels free!

No hidden costs here. Your transport provider should include a customs agent to help with paperwork, and this is usually free for you (unless they tell you otherwise). If you’re not sure, just ask us or your chosen transport partner. We’re happy to help make things clear.
