Moving to Cyprus

History

Cyprus has a very rich history, having evidence of some of the oldest ever human civilisations, over 10,000 years ago. Over the years, this island has been under the rule of Romans, Greeks, British and Turkish in all of their empires. The main population in Cyprus now are Greek and Turkish, with a small percentage of ex-pats who have emigrated there. There is a social and a physical divide between the two, distinguishing Cyprus and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, called the “Green Line”. This is managed and maintained by the United Nations due to some difficulties between the Greek and Turkish habitants of the island back in 1960’s – 70’s.

Packing

Our trained removers can pack and wrap all your small items into export quality cartons to ensure that they are transported safely. All furniture will be export wrapped or crated accordingly. Once prepared, a numbered inventory will be populated. If you choose a full door to door shipping service to Cyprus, Britannia will deliver the goods to your new home. We can then unwrap your furniture and unpack your moving boxes onto a flat surface, and all used packing materials will be removed from the site.

Groupage

We operate a regular part-load consolidation service to all areas of Cyprus. This service is ideal for small consignments or loads and but can take between 8 and 12 weeks.

Full container

If your consignment is larger we would suggest either a 20ft/40ft container to be used for sole-use, this has great advantages when planning your overseas move.

Insurance

Britannia can arrange for a complete comprehensive door to door Marine Insurance policy to cover most eventualities. Basic insurance can also be arranged to suit your budget.

Britannia Cestrian can also ship your car or motorcycle to Cyprus along with your household and personal effects.
