Feedback from our customers
Moving in France & Across Europe: Expert Advice
Relocating between European hubs—like moving from France to the Netherlands, Germany to the Riviera, or across the Benelux region—requires a partner who understands the complexity of international logistics. At KunnonMuutto, we specialize in seamless, cross-border relocations, ensuring your belongings travel safely across the continent with Nordic reliability.
What Is the Cost of a Move Within Europe?
The price of a cross-country move depends on the distance, the volume of your goods, and the specific services required.
Dedicated International Moves: If you prefer so, we’ll be moving on your exact schedule. This is the gold standard for large homes and time-sensitive relocations.
Combined Shipments (Part-Loads): If your timing is flexible, we can often combine your move with other shipments heading in the same direction (e.g., France to the Netherlands). This is a highly cost-effective and eco-friendly option.
Transparent Pricing: Based on our video survey, you’ll know the exact cost before we start—no hidden surcharges.
Packing for Long-Distance Transit
When goods travel across European borders, they are subject to different road conditions and vibrations. Professional packing is non-negotiable.
Durability is Key: All belongings must be packed in heavy-duty, stackable moving boxes. We advise against using thin plastic bins or bags, as they can fail under the pressure of a long-distance load.
White-Glove Packing Service: We highly recommend our professional packing service for your international move. Our experts use specialized materials to protect everything from delicate glassware to high-end electronics and designer furniture.
Documentation for Cross-Border Moves
While moving within the EU is generally smooth, professional documentation is required for insurance and transport security:
A Signed Moving Contract
A Detailed Inventory List (crucial for tracking every item across borders)
An International Waybill (CMR)
If your route takes you through non-EU countries (such as Switzerland), we handle the customs clearance paperwork on your behalf to ensure a delay-free journey.
Preparing for Your Move
To ensure a successful moving day in any European city:
Parking & Access: Please inform us if there are height restrictions for trucks. In cities like Paris or Brussels, we often arrange parking permits and specialized equipment to handle access.
Final Readiness: Unless you’ve booked our full packing service, please ensure all boxes are packed and everything is ready when the crew arrives.
Surface Protection: We care about your home. If you have delicate floors or narrow hallways that require extra protection, let us know so we can arrive prepared.
What is a Furniture Lift and When is it Needed?
A furniture lift (also known as a moving lift) is a specialized transport system designed to move belongings through a window or balcony directly from the outside of the building. This tool is exceptionally useful in situations where:
Narrow or steep staircases: Large furniture or moving crates cannot fit through the building’s interior stairs or elevators.
No elevator access: The building lacks an elevator, or the existing elevator’s capacity and door size are too small for bulky items.
High-floor apartments: The residence is located on a high floor, making manual carrying inefficient or risky.
Complex internal layouts: The building has long hallways, multiple turns, or restrictive access points that would slow down the move.
Local regulations: In many Central European countries—such as France, Belgium, and Switzerland—local regulations or old building structures often require the use of an external lift.
Depending on the model, a furniture lift can carry up to 300 kg. Using a lift significantly speeds up the moving day and prevents damage to both your belongings and the building’s interior surfaces.
