Why book dedicated van courier to Athens
Your consignment is the only thing in the van. That's the entire point of a dedicated service — no shared pallets, no depot handling, no re-sorts.
From a mainland-UK collection point to Athens in Greece is roughly 1808 miles including the Channel crossing. In a dedicated Taylors van it's usually a 5-day door-to-door job, with driver rest breaks scheduled to stay legal under EU tachograph rules. No hub, no shared load, no re-sort — just a van, a driver, and your consignment.

Is this a van service — not sea freight or Royal Mail?
Correct. Taylors is a dedicated-van courier — one UK-registered van, one named driver, straight through to Athens. No sea freight, no postal network, no shared pallets, no depot handling.
Are ferry, tolls and customs paperwork included in a Athens quote?
Yes. Every UK → Athens quote includes the Dover–Calais ferry or Eurotunnel crossing, French / EU road tolls, environmental zone stickers (Crit'Air, Umweltplakette etc.), driver overnight allowance and the customs admin fee. The price you see is the price you pay.
What paperwork do I need for Greece?
Commercial goods need a commercial invoice, packing list and EORI number (yours or ours). Personal effects need a signed inventory. Our ops team walks you through the exact format after booking — standard post-Brexit paperwork that rarely delays transit when prepared in advance.
Is the Athens delivery tracked and insured?

Yes. Two-man crews and Luton-with-tail-lift options are available for items over 40 kg or awkward pieces going to Athens. Mention it in the quote form or on WhatsApp and we'll price the correct van and crew.
