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

Our service can include the full export packing and wrapping of your furniture and personal effects or you can choose to pack all the small items into cartons yourself prior to moving and leave us to expertly protect your furniture.

Upon your initial enquiry, Bishop’s Move will arrange a free survey and quotation. Our expert staff will advise and support you on every step of your journey, providing you with advice on the regulations and documents you will require.

What Services Do We Provide?
We offer a range of removal services including the following options:

Direct Load
We pack, wrap and protect your furniture and household effects, then load onto one of our dedicated specialist removal vehicles. Our team then travel directly to your new home and deliver on a date that is suitable for you. We also offer an
unpacking service.

Part Load
Your furniture and household effects are packed and collected on an agreed date and then taken to our safe secure warehouse. Our team will then agree a delivery time frame with you and once a schedule is planned we will confirm a delivery date. This is a more cost effective way of moving as you only pay for a proportion of our vehicle.

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