Start with the places at both ends
Make the collection and receiving locations clear.
Moving your home or sending selected belongings to Guadeloupe? Tell us where collection starts, what needs to go and which island or address should receive it. Our team handles the survey and manages the packing, collection and receiving work agreed for your shipment.
Describe the journey you actually need
A useful enquiry puts the collection location and intended handover beside the belongings. Keep both ends clear, even if part of the plan is still being arranged.
Name the country and collection area, with the postcode where known. Describe stairs, parking limits and carrying distance before large furniture is included.
If the goods begin outside the UK, say so. Explain any proposed stop or separate collection so the actual route can be reviewed.
Give the intended Guadeloupe location and the contact who understands the access. Say whether you want help through to the home or a different handover.
If the address is undecided, mark it as undecided. Do not choose a place simply to complete the form.
Choose the work around the goods
Show the team delicate pieces, large furniture and anything difficult to handle. Our full-service moves include professional international packing, furniture dismantling and reassembly, with the work set out for the items you are sending.
Our international packing specialists have over 20 years of experience. Bring a room-by-room list so the survey can cover the help you want at collection.
Start your item listCheck each end of the journey
The applicable process needs the actual origin, goods and moving circumstances. A general label such as France or Europe does not answer every question about a Guadeloupe shipment.
GOV.UK's export guidance distinguishes Great Britain and Northern Ireland routes. Give the actual starting location so the relevant export questions can be checked.
Ask who will handle the origin-side work and what information they need. Do not assume a business-export checklist applies unchanged to your household move.
Check the GOV.UK export overviewFrench Customs explains that Guadeloupe is within the EU customs territory but has different tax treatment from mainland France. Ask which current rules apply to your goods and circumstances.
Some official moving guidance is written for arrivals from EU member states. Confirm the procedure for your actual origin rather than applying that guidance automatically to a UK shipment.

Agree the receiving stage
Our established destination agents can assist with paperwork, port collection and home delivery. You can choose shipping to port or manage your own paperwork. Give the island and address so the proposed route and receiving work can be checked.
Keep the route useful from the start
Yes. Name the actual origin and receiving location. The team will review the proposed route and work; a country selection does not confirm that every combination is available.
Say what is known and what is still being arranged. Update the team when the island, address or access becomes clear so the handover and charges can be reviewed against the actual plan.
Describe what you want to send first. Package counts and external measurements help with boxes and barrels; a room list helps explain furniture and household belongings. Include a mixture if that is what you have.
Yes. Show the pieces and discuss where preparation is needed. Full-service moves include international packing, dismantling and reassembly, with the work agreed in the quotation. Packing-only booking conditions need a separate check.
Confirm the applicable process with the responsible authority. Guadeloupe has territory-specific tax treatment, and guidance may be written for a particular origin. Do not rely on a general moving article to decide your exemption or charges.
Use the route leaving Guadeloupe option and name the intended destination. Collection, export and receiving arrangements for that direction need their own review.
