We collect, professionally pack and ship loads leaving Cornwall for Greece — one team, one quotation, and one managed service from the doorstep in Britain to the doorstep abroad.
We cover the whole of Cornwall in the South West England, including Callington, Camborne, Falmouth, Fowey, Hayle, Helston, Newquay and Padstow. Multiple collection addresses inside the county go on one route and one quotation.
Loads leave Cornwall via Eurotunnel or Dover–Calais, then Italy and the Ancona or Bari ferry to Patras, then the A8 to Athens or the northern corridor to Thessaloniki, with a typical transit of 5–7 days.

Packing standards applied across the county
The same specification applies whether we collect from a village or a city centre: materials chosen for the item, packing done at your address, and the load restrained for the crossing.
- Survey of the item before we quote so the packing spec is right first time
- Double-wall cartons, edge protection and corner boards for rigid goods
- Foam, bubble and blanket wrap chosen by material, not by habit
- Palletising and strapping where the load benefits from it
Routing and customs for Greece
Eurotunnel or Dover–Calais, then Italy and the Ancona or Bari ferry to Patras, then the A8 to Athens or the northern corridor to Thessaloniki.
Export declaration and Greek import entry. The Adriatic ferry leg is booked in advance, so schedules are firm once set.
Delivering into Greece
Island deliveries add a domestic ferry leg with its own schedule. Allow extra days for Crete, the Cyclades and the Ionian.
- Attica
- Central Macedonia
- Thessaly
- Crete
- Peloponnese
- Ionian Islands

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover all of Cornwall?
Yes — every town and village in Cornwall, not just the main centres. Rural collections are routine; we just need the access details so we send the right vehicle.
Can you collect from several addresses in Cornwall on the same job?
Yes. Multi-stop collections are built into one route rather than charged as separate jobs. Send us every address with access notes and we will price it as a single movement.
How long does Cornwall to Greece take?
Typically 5–7 days, routing via Eurotunnel or Dover–Calais, then Italy and the Ancona or Bari ferry to Patras. We give a band rather than a promise, and we tell you if a date is not realistic before you book.
What does it cost?
Guide prices start at £195 for documents and small parcels, £295 for boxes and personal effects, £395 for auction collections and £495 for furniture and large items. The final figure depends on collection location, destination, dimensions, weight, declared value, packing complexity, urgency and any special requirements.
