Dimond Movers LTD is an experienced international removals company moving UK households, professionals and offices to Europe, the Middle East, Australia and North America. Door-to-door service, fixed written quotes, full export packing, customs paperwork and trusted destination agents in every country we deliver to.
Spain, France, Portugal, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium and beyond all routes we run regularly with personally-known destination agents.
One UK coordinator from survey to final delivery overseas no handing your move to three companies and hoping for the best.
UK collection, export packing, customs, transit, destination port, customs clearance and final delivery all in one written price. No surprise local agent fees.
Post-Brexit customs, Transfer of Residence (ToR) relief, T1 transit documents, B534 / CF-3299 / Mirsal 2 declarations prepared by us, not handed back to you.
Heavy duty cartons, bubble wrap, blanket wrap, full barcoded inventory built for international transit, not a UK domestic move.
Comprehensive Goods in Transit cover for the full international journey, sea, road or air. Certificate provided with the move documentation.
A coordinator runs a video or in-person survey, agrees the inventory, mode (van / part-load / container) and timeline, and confirms a fixed all-in written quote.
Our crews export-pack your belongings to international shipping standards: heavy duty cartons, bubble wrap, blanket wrap for furniture, full inventory list and barcoded labels.
We prepare the destination customs declaration, transit documents and Transfer of Residence paperwork where applicable and submit them in advance of the vehicle / container arrival.
Our driver / shipping line handles transit; our destination agent handles port, customs and final delivery, unpacking and debris removal. You get tracking and a single point of contact throughout.
We run regular international trips to: Spain (Costa del Sol, Costa Blanca, Barcelona, Madrid), Portugal (Algarve, Lisbon, Porto), France (Paris, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Nice, Dordogne), Germany (Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg), Italy (Rome, Milan, Florence, Tuscany), Ireland (Dublin, Cork, Galway), Netherlands (Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague), Belgium (Brussels, Antwerp), Australia (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth), USA (New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Miami) and Dubai (UAE).
Each destination has its own pricing, transit time, customs treatment and quirks. Tap any destination below for a detailed country guide.
All European moves use road transport via Eurotunnel or Dover-Calais ferry then onward through France, Spain, Germany or Italy. Since Brexit, every UK to EU move needs a formal customs declaration and a T1 transit document.
New EU residents qualify for Transfer of Residence relief on used personal effects owned for over 6 months no VAT or duty payable. We prepare all paperwork.
Australia, the USA and the UAE are container shipments via sea (8-12 weeks Australia, 4-8 weeks USA, 5-8 weeks Dubai). We export-pack and load the container in the UK, seal it with a numbered customs seal and ship from Felixstowe, Southampton or London Gateway.
Customs and quarantine in Australia (DAFF), the USA (CBP) and Dubai (Federal Customs Authority) have very specific requirements we brief you in detail and handle the paperwork end-to-end.
Many international moves involve a gap between leaving the UK property and the container or van loading. We run secure, insured short and long-term storage at our Crowmarsh Gifford depot useful when you've completed your UK sale but the destination property isn't ready.
Storage is invoiced monthly and combined with the export packing and shipment under one coordinator and one quote.
We collect from across the South of England and ship worldwide.

Almost every failed overseas move fails on paperwork, not on driving. A missing residency document, an inventory without declared values, or a Transfer of Residence claim submitted after the vehicle has already left - each of those costs days at the border and, on sea freight, port storage charges you did not budget for. We prepare the inventory, complete the export declaration and check your destination documents before collection day, in-house, with no third-party broker fee added.
The second failure point is access at the destination, sighted only after the vehicle has arrived. Spanish urbanisations and Portuguese hillside villas often need a shuttle from a 7.5t vehicle; Italian historic centres are restricted-traffic zones needing a permit; Dutch canal houses need a hoist; German cities need a Halteverbot booking and a low-emission badge. We survey for these before quoting, so they appear as visible lines in your quote rather than surcharges on the day.
The third is volume. A quote built on a phone conversation is a guess, and a guess that is 20% low means either a second trip or a renegotiation while your belongings are on the pavement. Our free survey - in person or by video - puts a cubic-metre figure and a declared value on paper, and that figure is what the fixed quote is built on.
We are based in Oxfordshire and run our European corridors in both directions, which is why part-load pricing out of London, Bristol, Oxford, Swindon and Reading is competitive rather than padded with return-leg dead mileage.
