A full house removal to Spain typically costs £2,000–£4,000 for a two-bed and £3,500–£6,500 for a three-bed home, door to door in 2–4 days on a dedicated vehicle. Packing, paperwork and delivery are arranged for you — one enquiry, matched to a specialist who runs this corridor every week.
What a full house move includes
A proper household removal is more than a van. It covers a pre-move survey to fix the volume and price, export wrapping for furniture and fragile items, loading and securing, the ferry or tunnel crossing with tolls, the customs inventory and transit paperwork, goods-in-transit insurance, and delivery into the rooms you nominate at the Spanish end.
Dedicated vehicle means your household travels alone: no shared stops, no waiting for a groupage schedule, and a delivery date you can actually plan a flight around.
Costs by house size
| Home | Typical cost (2026 guide) |
|---|---|
| 1-bed flat | £1,500–£2,800 |
| 2-bed home | £2,000–£4,000 |
| 3-bed home | £3,500–£6,500 |
| 4-bed home | £5,000–£8,500 |
Access at both ends is the biggest swing factor after volume — stairs, lifts, long carries and narrow streets that need a smaller shuttle vehicle. All of it is priceable in advance if the survey is honest. Full cost guide →
How moving day works
The crew wraps and loads over one or two days depending on size, the van crosses by ferry (Portsmouth–Santander) or tunnel and drives down through France and the AP-7, and delivery follows 2–4 days later. You’ll have a named contact and a delivery window, and the crew places furniture where you want it rather than stacking it in the hall. The full process →
Packing services
You can pack yourself, have the crew pack everything, or split it — most people take the fragile-only option, where china, glass, art and electronics are professionally wrapped and the rest is left to you. Export-grade materials matter more on a 1,500-mile road move than on a domestic one: anything packed for a UK move will be handled several more times before it reaches Málaga.
Timing your move
September is the corridor’s peak month by a distance — searches and bookings run several times normal levels as families move before the Spanish school year. Book 6–8 weeks ahead for September dates. Moving in late spring or October usually costs less and gets you a better crew.
If your Spanish property isn’t ready, storage at either end is straightforward to arrange; say so on the quote form and it’ll be priced in.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to move a house to Spain? Typically £2,000–£4,000 for a two-bed and £3,500–£6,500 for a three-bed home, door to door (2026 guide prices).
How long does a full house removal take? Dedicated vehicles are typically 2–4 days from collection to delivery, plus a day either side for loading and unloading on larger homes.
Do you pack for me? Full packing, fragile-only packing, or self-packing — all three are available. Fragile-only is the most popular choice.
Will I pay duty on my household goods in Spain? Household effects you’ve owned and used generally move duty-free when you transfer your residence to Spain, provided the paperwork is done properly. Your remover handles the transit documents.
Can you store my things if the dates don’t line up? Yes — storage can be arranged in the UK or in Spain. Flag it on the quote so it’s priced from the start.
When should I book for a September move? Six to eight weeks ahead. September is the busiest month on the route and the good crews fill early.
