Canada’s Top-Rated Movers. Done As Promised.
Moving to France
From deciding what to bring to planning delivery at your new address, moving to France deserves a clear plan. Start with your departure city, destination and household inventory, and we will work through the moving details together.
A NEW COUNTRY. A CAREFUL PLAN.
01 / YOUR MOVING PLAN
The right questions at the start make the next steps clearer. Explore the parts of your move we’ll plan together.
The distance changes.
The care doesn’t.
A Paris apartment and a house outside the capital bring different delivery questions. Share the city, street access, floor level and lift dimensions rather than planning around the country name alone.
02 / THE EXPERIENCE
Inventory and packing. Customs preparation. Transport and delivery. A plan for each stage of the journey.
Decide what is coming with you and create a detailed inventory. Review furniture protection, fragile packing and the pickup arrangements with your moving contact.
Keep passports, essential documents and valuables with you. Agree what is included in the transport plan, who handles each stage and the expected timing.
A clear inventory starts the journey.
Review French customs guidance for your move from Canada. Prepare your detailed household inventory and the documents required for your circumstances; any transfer-of-residence relief depends on eligibility.
Clarify responsibilities for forms, customs coordination and any duties or charges before booking. Clearance is determined by the relevant authorities, so avoid assuming that every item or shipment qualifies for relief.
Documents ready before departure.
Plan the final delivery after customs release. For Paris apartments or other French addresses, confirm street access, lift dimensions, floor level and any building arrangements with your receiving contact.
Review the delivery inventory at handover and raise any concerns with your moving contact. Keep essential items accessible while the rest of your household settles in.
A considered arrival in your new country.

05 / Moving to France QUESTIONS
Still have something on your mind?
No. Tell us your destination in France so the team can review the route and delivery arrangements. Paris enquiries can also refer to our dedicated Paris location page.
Share lift dimensions, floor level and stair access, along with large-item measurements. These details help establish what can be delivered and whether additional arrangements need assessment.
Ask about packing support when submitting your inventory. Fragile belongings and furniture should be reviewed against the proposed transport and delivery plan.
Start with a detailed inventory and your destination information. The documents applicable to you depend on your circumstances; confirm current requirements with the relevant authorities.
Tell us who can receive the shipment and provide access at the destination. Any arrangement must be agreed in advance and fit the confirmed delivery and processing schedule.
Share the pickup address, French destination, likely date and amount you are moving. An agent will follow up to review packing, access and the next steps.
