I had to find a company to transport my car when it arrived on the docks from the UK and deliver it to me in the South of France – unfortunately, I didn’t have the chance to head up there to pick it up and drive it down myself – like many early retirees moving to a new country, there was just too much to do, and I wasn’t confident – yet – on the roads of France.
But, I discovered that there was a company that could transport my car – called transport de voiture – in France. I was delighted – a company that I could trust to courier my car to me, and was insured to travel and transport my vehicle in France.
Hiring my courier
Transport de voiture services are quite easy to arrange, if you know where to look – I needed to research it before bringing my car over, or it would have had to have waited.
I simply had my son deliver the car to the docks to be transported over, and at the other end, the transport de voiture took over. I arranged it with ease, and ensured they were insured before agreeing to hire them to move my car – and once I did, it was as easy as that. My car arrived in pristine condition, and we’re all settled in the South of France – though, I admit, I’m still not driving!
