Whether you are moving to or from France Bishop’s Move can help with your removal.

What Services Do We Provide?

We offer a range of removal services including the following options:

Direct Load

We pack (or you can pack all small items into cartons yourself) your household effects, wrap and protect all the furniture and large items and then load on to our vehicle.  We then travel to your new home at a date that is convenient to you. We unload, unwrap and place your consignment in your new home. An unpacking service is also available*.

Part Load

We pack (or you can pack all small items into cartons yourself) your household effects, wrap and protect all the furniture and large items and then load on to our vehicle. Your consignment is then taken to one of our safe and secure warehouses.

Our Operations team will agree a delivery time frame with you and once our delivery schedules are known we will confirm a delivery date. This is a more cost effective way of moving as you only use part of our vehicle as other consignments are also loaded on the same vehicle in order to share the cost.

Storage

We can also offer storage at origin or destination, should you require this service.

Things you should be aware of

If you are moving to a town or small village there maybe potential access issues or parking restrictions. Narrow streets or apartment blocks can all pose potential problems when unloading at your new home.

If you can advise us in advance, Bishop’s Move through its network of European Partners, can arrange smaller shuttle vehicles and specialist equipment such as hoists to ensure a smooth pain free delivery of your consignment.
