International & European

Moving overseas, door to door

The principles don't change — survey, plan, protect — but the logistics do, and they reward planning. We coordinate international relocations end to end.

Moving abroad adds distance, customs and time to an already big move. The principles don't change — survey, plan, protect — but the logistics do, and they reward planning. We coordinate international relocations end to end, from export packing in your London home to delivery and unpacking at the other side.


Transport modes

How your move travels

The right mode depends on distance, budget and how quickly you need to be in.

Road freight

Usually fastest and most cost-effective for Europe. Available as a dedicated (sole-use) load or a more economical part-load shared with other consignments.

Sea freight

The most cost-effective option for long-haul. Either a full container (FCL) for a whole home, or a shared/groupage container for smaller volumes. Transit typically runs from around six weeks, depending on the route.

Air freight

The fastest option, priced by weight — suited to smaller or urgent consignments rather than a full household.

We'll talk you through the trade-offs honestly so you choose with a clear picture of cost and timing.

What an international move includes

  • A survey and a written plan, the same as any MÜVR move.
  • Export wrapping — heavy-duty protection built for long-haul handling, moisture and changes in temperature.
  • Customs documentation prepared and managed.
  • Destination delivery and unpacking, through a partner-agent network at the other end.

Cover on the water and in the air

International legs need their own cover. Marine/transit insurance protects goods on the sea or air portion of the journey, beyond what a standard domestic policy handles. We'll explain what's included and help you declare high-value items.
