Removals From Ireland to Portugal – How Much And What Is Involved?

Planning a move to Portugal? Get Cracking provides professional removals to Portugal from Ireland for individuals, families and businesses moving household goods, furniture and personal belongings.

Whether you are relocating a few boxes, an apartment or the contents of a complete family home, our international removals team can arrange a transport solution suited to the size and requirements of your move.

Our services include part-load and groupage removals, palletised transport and dedicated loads, with collection throughout Ireland and door-to-door delivery across Portugal.

Get Cracking can also provide professional packing services, specialist protection for fragile belongings and secure storage in Dublin when required.

We provide removals to Lisbon, Porto, Faro, the Algarve, Braga, Coimbra and destinations throughout mainland Portugal.

Moving in the opposite direction? We can also arrange removals from Portugal to Ireland.

Removals from Ireland to Portugal

An international house move requires considerably more planning than a local removal.

Your belongings need to be collected, correctly packed for international transportation, loaded securely and transported through Europe before final delivery at your new home in Portugal.

Get Cracking can manage the process from collection in Ireland through to final delivery in Portugal, giving you one point of contact throughout your move.

Our service can be tailored to suit anything from a relatively small shipment of boxes and furniture to a complete household relocation.

How Much Do Removals to Portugal Cost?

There is no single price for removals from Ireland to Portugal because every move is different.

The cost will normally depend on factors such as:

• the volume of goods being moved
• collection and delivery locations
• access at both properties
• whether professional packing is required
• whether storage is required
• whether you choose a part-load or dedicated service
• any specialist items requiring additional handling or protection

For smaller moves, a part-load or groupage service can be a practical option because your belongings travel alongside other compatible shipments moving on a similar European route.

Larger moves may be more suitable for a dedicated vehicle.

The best way to establish the cost is to provide Get Cracking with an inventory or arrange an assessment of the goods being moved.

Transport Options for Removals to Portugal

Different moves require different transport solutions. Get Cracking can advise on the most suitable option based on your volume, destination and preferred timescale.

Part-Load / Groupage Removals

A part-load removal to Portugal is suitable when your belongings do not require an entire removal vehicle.

Your shipment travels alongside other compatible consignments travelling on a similar route.

This can be a particularly useful solution for apartment moves, furniture shipments and smaller household relocations.

Palletised Transport to Portugal

For smaller quantities of boxes, personal belongings or suitable pieces of furniture, we can arrange palletised transport between Ireland and Portugal.

Goods are prepared and secured for transportation before being moved through our European transport network.

Dedicated Loads

Customers moving a larger volume of household goods or requiring greater control over collection and delivery dates may prefer a dedicated removal vehicle.

Our team can advise whether a dedicated load is appropriate after reviewing the size and requirements of your move.

Professional Packing for Your Move to Portugal

International transportation can involve considerably more handling than a local move, so correct packing is important.

Get Cracking provides professional packing services for customers moving from Ireland to Portugal.

Depending on your requirements, we can provide full packing, partial packing, furniture protection and specialist crating for items requiring additional protection.

If you prefer to pack your own belongings, we can also provide appropriate packing materials.

Clearly identify important documents, medication, keys and other belongings you will need immediately after arriving in Portugal and keep these separately from the goods being transported.

Storage for Removals to Portugal

Your collection and delivery dates do not always line up perfectly.

If your property in Portugal is not ready when your belongings are collected, Get Cracking can arrange secure storage in Dublin before onward transportation.

Our managed removals storage service allows us to collect your belongings, place them into storage and arrange onward transportation when you are ready to receive them.

For customers requiring storage at destination, we can also enquire about suitable storage options through our international moving network.

Moving from Ireland to Portugal

Portugal is an EU Member State, as is Ireland.

This makes an Ireland-to-Portugal relocation different from moving household goods to a country outside the European Union. However, customers should still check current requirements if transporting vehicles, restricted goods or items subject to specific controls.

If you are relocating permanently, there are also administrative arrangements to consider after arrival.

For example, EU citizens remaining in Portugal for more than three months are generally required to obtain the appropriate registration certificate. Portugal’s AIMA states that this is requested through the municipality for the area of residence and provides the current requirements and documentation.

For current official information, see Portugal’s AIMA guidance for EU citizens.

Moving to Lisbon, Porto and the Algarve

Get Cracking can arrange removals to destinations throughout mainland Portugal.

Removals to Lisbon are available for customers relocating to Portugal’s capital and surrounding areas.

We can also arrange removals to Porto and northern Portugal, as well as moves to Faro and destinations throughout the Algarve.

If access to your new property is restricted because of narrow streets, apartment access, parking restrictions or other local conditions, tell our team when requesting your quotation. This allows the delivery requirements to be considered when planning your move.

Protection for Your Move to Portugal

Customers moving internationally should consider the appropriate level of protection for their belongings.

Get Cracking offers MoveProtect Cover for international relocations.

A Valuation Form should be completed declaring the replacement value of the goods being moved, and the appropriate cover should be in place before collection.

Our team can explain the available options when preparing your move.
