EwePack Shipping ServicesWhole homes can be loaded direct at your current property in a sole-use container or removals truck and shipped on the next departure to your new French home. We offer the Self-Load option (by sea) as well as the EwePack Premium (by road or sea) service. Southern French destinations are more cost-effective by sea freight.

Part homes can be shipped in the EwePack Share a Load service. Your options here include loose packed loads throughout France or your own EwePack Lift-Van for maximum security of your goods. The Lift-Vans are basically a small wooden container you can pack yourself; these are then loaded with others in a shared container destined for the same port of arrival. These can be shipped to any French destination.

Our EwePack Baggage shipping is available for smaller carton and bag-only shipments. These are loaded in the same shipping containers/trucks as the share A Load consignments, although we do also offer an Airfreight Express and Roadfreight Express options.

Arrival Services -   The shipments by road will usually include a full unload into your property, whereas the seafreight option can just be for the Self Load service.

Transit Times depending on the destination and the mode of transport, transit times vary greatly.  You should consult our local Move Director for further options available to you.
