Removals from Germany to Portsmouth

We run Germany → UK collections on the same monthly schedule as our outbound loads. Collection from Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg and beyond; delivery into any PO1-PO6 address in Portsmouth.

Germany is one of our most regular European routes — Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt and the Rhine-Ruhr cities all see UK relocations every month, especially around academic terms and corporate transfers. We run Germany trips on a roughly 2-week shared schedule and dedicated vans on demand. Inbound moves use the same door-to-door coordinator, the same insured crew and the same fixed written pricing model as our UK-to-Germany work — no local Germany agent handing you off at the border.

Since Brexit, personal effects entering the UK from Germany need a formal customs declaration. Returning UK residents and new UK arrivals can claim UK Transfer of Residence (ToR1) relief and import used household goods VAT- and duty-free, provided items have been owned and used abroad for at least 6 months and the move happens within 12 months of establishing UK residency.

We prepare the ToR1 application, the C3 / C5 customs declaration and the inventory in English (and German where required) so nothing stalls at Dover, Folkestone or Killingholme.

Portsmouth City Council permit suspensions are quick — 5-10 working days. We arrange the Portsmouth parking permit and lift booking before the vehicle leaves Berlin so the unload runs to the same tight schedule as our domestic UK moves.

Rail context: Portsmouth Harbour and Portsmouth & Southsea. Vehicle access via M27, M275 and A3(M) access. Neighbourhoods we deliver to weekly include Old Portsmouth, Southsea, Portsmouth City Centre, Cosham, North End, Fratton.

Indicative pricing on the Germany → Portsmouth route mirrors the outbound direction: £1,200 (small part-load to NRW) up to £5,800+ (dedicated 4-bed move to Munich). Return-leg / combined loads can reduce the shared-part-load cost noticeably when your dates are flexible by 1-2 weeks — ask us about the next combined Iberian / Central European run.

Every quote is fixed in writing after a video survey of the Germany property. No day-of surprises, no Germany-agent surcharges, no separate UK delivery invoice.
