How long does it take for my belonging to arrive from the UK to Poland?

The time frame for the arrival of your goods, when you move from the UK to Poland depends on the volume option, you’ve chosen. Fastest would be large removal, where the removal company will use a dedicated van or lorry, so it is possible to receive your goods within 24 hours from loading time. Since the UK is not a member of the EU additional procedures are implemented, that may affect this time.
If you choose the “small” removal option, which technically speaking is a shared service where your belongings will travel with other customers’ items, so the time could be extended up to 3 days, however, as we are very busy in MyCheapRemovals it is easy for us to combine deliveries and make your belongings in shorter time.
Our customer service team will be happy to answer any questions in this regard.

I’m moving to Poland – what documents do I need?

Since the United Kingdom left European Union there are a couple of more documents required when you move to Poland (and to be frank, all EU countries). First, we will require an “Inventory list” and a copy of your passport or national ID card. With new regulations, we will need proof of your address in the UK, where you were living for the last 12 months and any proof of the destination address in Poland.
When you decide to use our removal service we’ll send you a couple of documents to fill in: “non-cession” and CERFA – our customer service representative will help you with this.

What are the living costs in Poland in comparison to the Uk?

In general, living costs in Poland are significantly lower than in the United Kingdom. According to Numbeo, the cost of living in Poland is 40% lower than in the United Kingdom. This is true for most categories of expenses, including rent, groceries, transportation, and entertainment.

Here are some of the reasons why living costs are so much lower in Poland:

  • The cost of labour is lower in Poland. This is due to a number of factors, including a lower minimum wage and a higher unemployment rate.
  • The cost of goods and services is lower in Poland. This is due to a number of factors, including lower taxes and a less developed economy.
  • The cost of living in rural areas is lower than in urban areas. This is true in both Poland and the United Kingdom. However, the difference is more pronounced in Poland.

Can I move to Poland with my Pet?

Yes, you can take your pet with you when you moving to Poland from the UK. However, there are a few requirements that you must meet in order to bring your pet to Poland.

  • Your pet must be microchipped with a 15-digit ISO standard microchip.
  • Your pet must be vaccinated against rabies at least 21 days before travel.
  • Your pet must have a valid health certificate issued by a veterinarian within 10 days of travel.
  • Your pet must be free of parasites. If you meet all of these requirements, you can bring your pet into Poland without having to quarantine them. However, you may need to pay a fee to the Polish authorities when you enter the country.

If you plan to move to Poland other than the growing economy and relatively low living costs, there are a number of interesting places where you can spend your free time.

Life has been quite difficult for Poland, an eastern European country that has been invaded and destroyed many times over the centuries. The country suffered mightily in World War II but the Polish spirit survived, and now Poland is one of the hottest destinations in Europe. Relatively cheap airlines and coach connections have opened up Poland’s wonders to more and more people in recent years. (more…)

Romania is known worldwide because of its historical region, Transylvania, which served as an inspiration for the setting of Bram Stoker’s critically-acclaimed novel, Dracula. But apart from its association with vampires, Romania is home to a number of majestic castles and prominent natural landscapes. People moving to Romania for employment purposes are required to obtain a working visa from the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, together with a copy of a work contract from their Romanian employer.

Romania is an intriguing option for emigrants seeking work in Eastern Europe: it might not be your first choice but it is definitely worth considering, as the country is the new home to some big multinationals, has a relatively low cost of living, and a current low rate of unemployment which suggests that the economy is reasonably healthy.
