Living in Greece

Greece has a warmth that’s hard to put into words. It’s not just the sunshine or the sea, but the way people live, with time for conversation, good food, and family. The pace is slower here, and daily life has a rhythm shaped by the seasons, the weather, and a strong sense of community. Whether you’re in a mountain village or near the coast, life feels open and welcoming.

The country’s natural beauty is an everyday part of living here. Blue skies, clear waters, and olive groves create a backdrop that never loses its charm. Fresh produce is easy to find, and meals are often simple but full of flavour, shared with friends or neighbours. The cost of living can be surprisingly reasonable, especially outside the main tourist areas, and it’s easy to build a lifestyle that feels both healthy and affordable.

Pinnacle Removals provides expert international removals to Greece, offering dependable moving services to Athens, Thessaloniki, Crete, Rhodes, Corfu, and every other part of the country. Whether you’re settling in a lively city, a peaceful village, or a scenic island, our team ensures your relocation is smooth and well-managed. We handle everything from customs and transport arrangements to delivery at your new home, making the entire moving process straightforward and stress-free.

Groupage and Full Load Removals

Groupage (Part Load) Removals to Greece

Groupage services are a practical solution when moving a smaller volume of belongings and a dedicated vehicle is not required. Items are professionally packed and transported alongside other consignments travelling in the same direction, helping to manage costs while still providing a reliable and well organised service.

This approach works particularly well for apartment moves, partial household relocations, or situations where some flexibility around delivery timing is possible. Groupage is commonly used for European moves to Greece where efficiency and value are important, without compromising on care or coordination.

Full Load (Dedicated Van) Removals to Greece

A full load service uses a dedicated vehicle reserved exclusively for your move, allowing belongings to travel directly from collection to delivery without sharing space with other shipments. This provides greater control over scheduling and simplifies the overall logistics.

Dedicated van services are well suited to full household moves, families, or anyone working to a defined timeframe. The direct routing and reduced handling make this option particularly suitable for European relocations to Greece where reliability, clarity, and peace of mind are important.

What our clients say

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of moving to Greece is primarily determined by the volume of your belongings, as this dictates the vehicle or container space required for the journey.

Your final destination, whether Athens, Thessaloniki, or one of the Greek Islands, is also factored into route planning and access requirements. Deliveries to island locations may involve additional ferry transfers and restricted vehicle access in historic or pedestrianised areas.

We provide free home or video surveys to assess volume accurately and supply a quotation based on the full logistics of your move.

For road freight removals to mainland Greece, the typical door-to-door timeframe is 2 to 4 weeks, depending on whether you choose a dedicated vehicle or a part-load service.

Island destinations may require additional time due to ferry schedules and onward delivery arrangements.

If you require a faster option for smaller shipments, air freight usually arrives within 7 to 14 days, subject to customs clearance.

In most cases, you can import your used personal belongings without paying the standard 24% Greek VAT or customs duties when transferring your primary residence to Greece.

Greek Customs (Teloneio) generally requires proof that you have lived outside the EU for at least 12 consecutive months and have owned and used the items for at least six months prior to shipment.

The exemption applies to personal effects intended for continued use in your new home and does not cover commercial goods or items for resale.

To clear your shipment as personal property, you will typically need to provide:

  • A copy of your passport
  • A signed and valued inventory
  • Proof of your new Greek address, such as a rental contract or property deed
  • Evidence of UK residency for the previous 12 months
  • A Certificate of Change of Residence issued by the Greek Consulate or relevant authority

Documentation is reviewed prior to shipment to minimise customs delays.

We offer two main transport options depending on the size and timing of your move:

  • Dedicated service: Exclusive use of a vehicle, providing a direct journey and defined delivery window.
  • Part-load (groupage): Your belongings share space with other shipments, reducing costs for smaller moves.

You only pay for the volume your goods occupy within the vehicle.

Most household goods can be moved without issue, but certain items are restricted under EU import rules.

  • Meat and dairy products are generally prohibited.
  • Plants and seeds usually require a phytosanitary certificate.
  • Large quantities of alcohol or tobacco may be subject to excise duties.

Inventories are reviewed in advance so any restricted items can be identified before shipment.

Yes. For valuable or delicate items such as fine art, antiques, sculptures, or pianos, we provide White Glove export wrapping and custom crating at origin in the UK.

Yes. If there is a delay in accessing your Greek property, we can arrange secure storage before departure from the UK or coordinate local storage on arrival.

This flexibility is particularly useful for island relocations or staged property completions.
