Smile Moving cost info needed

Hi there. We are looking to relocate to Portugal in the near future and were wondering if anyone knew of any good removal firms and a rough idea of the cost. It will be from North West England to Central Portugal and a full house of stuff. Hope im in the right place for asking - Im new to this and have just been in the adega asking the same. So sorry if im duplicating

Hello!

When I moved to the UK two years ago I used this company: http://www.mudatudo.com

They were real professional, it's a small company and the drivers are mostly British ex-pats living in central Portugal. They also had the best prices, by far. If I need to move things around again, I will definitely contact them, so, I do recommend them.

Cheers,

AP

I too can recommend mudatudo. They charge 100 euros per cu metre. We were delighted with their service. They picked it up on the day arranged and delivered promptly and efficiently.

the cheapest way to do it is to hire a van yourself and hire a container and load it yourself and then have it shipped, total cost should be around 1.5k for a three bed house, good luck

Hi we used www.aandlmovers.co.uk

Prices depends on volume we moved from a 4bed and if you want a full packing service etc

We had no problems with A&L would highly recommend

€100 per cubic metre is extortion surely? Ok for a small load I guess.

We used Direct Transport, we moved over 600m3 and it cost about £1,800.

Sorry not sure where I've got my figures from, it was about 25m3 / 883 ft3!!

Still at the other carrier's rate that would work out as €2,500 and I know we definitely didn't pay that much
