Organizing a London to Paris move with confidence

Moving is considered one of life’s most stressful events by nearly 75% of French people. While it can be a challenging phase for individuals, it is equally daunting for businesses. When it comes to international relocation, the difficulties multiply. It’s no wonder one would want to be thoroughly informed and well-supported.

A well-organized approach for a successful move from London to Paris

Regarding packing…

Whether in London or elsewhere, you may have already experienced sorting and packing before embarking on new horizons. Before sealing your boxes, other steps are necessary. One key to a smooth move is anticipation. If possible, start looking for your future residence in Paris well in advance, as things can be a bit more complicated from London. Also, quickly get in touch with a moving company. This step is now greatly facilitated by online platforms. You’ll find all the information regarding services offered, available packages (basic packages, turnkey solutions, etc.), calculating the volume of your belongings, setting a schedule, and the option to get a quote.

Things may get hectic, and you might be forced to move urgently. Don’t panic; at TPR Transport, we have all the experience and responsiveness needed to handle such situations under the best conditions. Depending on your requirements, we can offer to intervene as soon as possible, even within a week if necessary.

Regarding paperwork…

The list of administrative procedures to be completed before your move is long (and not exhaustive), so it’s best to start early:

Change of address (consulate, bank, social security agencies...).
Updating your contact information on your identity documents.
Removal from the French registry abroad (at the embassy or consulate), removal from electoral rolls.
Request for a certificate of change of residence proving that you have lived in the United Kingdom. This will be required upon your return to France for certain procedures (social benefits...).
Request for form U1 from your Job Centre (necessary for potential registration with Pôle emploi)...
Request for a certificate of deregistration from your children's school and their school records for their future enrollment in a French institution.

Groupage, an optimal moving solution

The formula is simple and based on maximizing the profitability of a truck. The services are the same as those of a standard move, but the belongings of two clients are transported simultaneously. Groupage has two major advantages:
