  • Relocation

    A slower pace of life with shorter working weeks and a focus on lifestyle awaits those relocating to France. Increasingly the French way of living is resonating with those looking for a healthy work-life balance and a slice of joie de vivre. 

    If you’re chasing a more carefree life in the land of Michelin-starred eats and UNESCO World Heritage Sites – we can help.

    If you are emigrating you will need to provide a copy of your passport, your flight details and official proof of residence or rental agreement.

     

  • Students

    Don’t let international shipping take the shine off studying abroad. Our team can take that off your hands with our affordable door-to-door student shipping service. Check out our student page for more information. 

    If you are travelling to France to study you will need to provide your passport, inbound flight details and a letter from your place of study confirming your attendance, the course to be studied and the length of the course.

  • Leisure Travel

    A European mainstay when it comes to leisure travel, this pocket rocket country punches well above its weight. From the snow-capped mountains in the Alps to the turquoise seas of the French Riviera and criss-cross vineyards in Bordeaux and Burgundy. In Paris, fashion and food combine to create a chic cultural hotspot. 

    Holidaying in France? Don’t mess around with airport queues and excess baggage fees. Send your items with us and we’ll have it waiting at your hotel, ready for your arrival.

    If you are travelling to France for a holiday you will need to provide a copy of your passport.

  • Business Travel

    The standard working week is perhaps a little shorter here than most are used to. There’s a firm emphasis on spending time with family and friends, with long lunches and universal healthcare seen as big benefits to working in France. Plus the country borders Spain, Italy, Germany, Belgium and Switzerland – ideal for international business travel. 

    We can help companies send items abroad. Compared to airlines, we let you send more items and at a weight of up to 30kg with no additional fees.

  • Sports Vacation

Packing Considerations

Follow our guide and recommendations on how to pack your items for safe shipping

Luggage

When it comes to packing, the sturdier the suitcase the better – this goes for hard or soft cases. You’ll need to tuck in all straps, and if that’s not possible tape them down or remove them.  Next, put your labels in a plastic sleeve and attach this securely to the suitcase with cable ties. Lastly, make sure you leave your suitcase unlocked in case customs or the courier need to verify the contents.  

Unfortunately we don’t accept rucksacks and holdalls and we don’t recommend using designer luggage for shipping.

Boxes

For shipping boxes, choose a double walled box or higher and wrap fragile items individually, then cushion them with bubble wrap or something similar. If you can, spread your heavier items between boxes and include a copy of your label in the box. This helps with verification.
