Removals to Czechia

How much do removals to Czechia cost?

Every Czechia move is priced on volume, access at both ends, how much packing you want and when you need it there. As a guide, a part load of boxes and a few items of furniture is usually £750 to £1,400, a two bedroom home is £2,600 to £3,600 and a three bedroom home is £3,500 to £4,900. Larger houses, pianos, vehicles and fine art are quoted individually.

We do not quote by the hour and we do not add fuel or waiting charges on the day. After a free survey by video call or in person you get one written figure covering collection, materials, transport to Czechia, transit through the EU, delivery and placement and goods in transit cover. If your dates move, we move with you.

Sharing a vehicle is the cheapest way to send a smaller load, because you pay only for the space you use. The trade off is timing: a part load runs to a consolidation schedule and takes 7 to 14 days, while a dedicated vehicle leaves when you want it and arrives in 3 to 4 days.

The route: UK to Czechia

Dover to Calais or Eurotunnel then the E40 to Aachen, the A4 and A6 across Germany through Nuremberg and the D5 motorway into Prague.

Distance from our base to Prague is around 850 miles. Czech historic zones enforce timed access so central Prague deliveries are usually booked for an early morning window before the pedestrian restrictions start.

Drivers are on tachograph hours and we plan legal rest into the schedule rather than pushing a single driver too far which is one of the reasons our delivery dates hold. You get the vehicle's progress by phone or message so you know the day before it arrives.

Customs and paperwork for Czechia

As an EU member state there is no duty and no customs entry for personal effects. We still travel with an itemised inventory which insurers require and which speeds up any roadside check on the German or Austrian legs.

Whatever the destination, we build a full inventory at packing. It is the document that supports your insurance claim if anything is damaged, and it settles any question at a roadside check in seconds.

Stays over 30 days require registration with the Foreign Police and long term residents apply for a rodne cislo equivalent registration number.

Delivery and access in Czechia

Prague 1 and Prague 2 are full of nineteenth century apartment houses with a paternoster sized lift or none at all and the historic centre has vehicle access windows and weight limits. We apply for a short term parking reservation with the city district, normally ten working days ahead.

We survey the destination as carefully as the collection address. Lift dimensions, doorway widths, stair turns, height barriers and parking restrictions all change the crew size and the vehicle and finding out on the day is what turns a smooth move into an expensive one.

Delivery does not stop at the front door. Furniture is placed in the room you want, beds and wardrobes are rebuilt and boxes are stacked where you can work through them. Full unpacking with the packing debris taken away is available if you would rather start straight from an empty floor.

Packing, part loads and storage

A long European journey is harder on furniture than a local move so everything is packed to export standard: double walled cartons, wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes, bubble and tissue for glass and china, corner protection on case goods and export wrap over upholstery and mattresses. Televisions, mirrors and artwork travel in purpose made cases.

We collect anywhere in the UK for Czechia so a load can combine your current home with items held elsewhere, such as a family member's garage or a storage unit. Cars, motorcycles and bicycles can travel with the household on the same vehicle where space allows.

Dates rarely line up perfectly across borders. Secure containerised storage in the UK bridges the gap: your goods are inventoried, sealed into containers and held until your Czechia property is ready then delivered without being handled again in between.
