Dublin to Germany Removals

Moving from Dublin to Germany? J Hanway Removals & Storage provides expert international removal services connecting Ireland with Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg, and cities throughout Germany. Whether you’re relocating for career opportunities in Germany’s strong economy, studying at prestigious German universities, or embracing German culture, our experienced team ensures a seamless European relocation.

Moving from Dublin to Germany

Germany is Europe’s economic powerhouse and a popular destination for Irish professionals and families. We’ve refined our German removal service to handle the unique requirements of this important European route.

Transport Options: We offer flexible transport solutions for German moves. Road freight via the UK and France/Belgium provides comprehensive door-to-door service with ferry crossings and motorway transit across Europe. For larger moves, we arrange sea freight via major German ports including Hamburg and Bremerhaven. Both options ensure your belongings arrive safely with full tracking throughout.

Professional Packing for German Properties: German housing varies widely—from Berlin’s Altbau apartments with high ceilings to Munich’s modern developments, Frankfurt’s high-rises, and traditional houses in smaller cities. Our packing team understands these diverse property types and arrives with appropriate materials: reinforced boxes, wardrobe cartons, bubble wrap, furniture blankets, and custom crating. We pack systematically with German efficiency in mind, maintaining detailed inventories essential for customs and insurance.

Customs and EU Regulations: As both Ireland and Germany are EU members, the free movement of goods simplifies customs procedures significantly. However, proper documentation remains essential. We prepare comprehensive inventory lists, proof of residence, and any required declarations. For non-EU nationals, additional documentation may be required, which we’ll discuss during planning.

German Delivery Coordination: German cities present various logistical considerations. Many older apartment buildings (Altbau) lack lifts, requiring careful planning for furniture transport. German regulations regarding parking, building access times, and waste disposal are strict—our experienced team navigates these requirements expertly. We coordinate with Hausverwaltung (building management), arrange parking permits, and schedule deliveries during permitted hours.

Typical Timeline: Road freight typically takes 4-6 days door-to-door from Dublin to German destinations. Sea freight takes 10-16 days but offers cost advantages for larger moves. We’ll recommend the optimal solution based on your volume, destination, budget, and timeline.
