Thousands of families seek to emigrate from the UK each year and most wish to take some of their household and personal effects with them. Such shipments are rarely large enough to fill a standard shipping container so it is far more economical for small or medium shipments to "share" a container - this process we call consolidated or groupage services and Britannia was originally formed to cater for this specific demand.
Britannia is a cooperative and is now the largest business of its kind in the UK. This is the brief story of how it began and developed into a successful international business.

Huge thanks to Britannia for carrying out our move in July from Cheddington, Bucks, to Wantage, Oxon. They did so with very short notice and coped well with the complications of the move. Special thanks to the team of removers (Mark, Sean, Mick and Terry) for their incredibly hard work in getting us packed, loaded and unloaded across three days. They were a good team, very focused and industrious, and we were impressed with the way that they took care with one another whilst moving the heavier, bulkier items.

Really impressed with the ‘can do’ approach and the experience of the team. The property that we moved in to was a real challenge trying to navigate large furniture items around tight passageways and stairs and the experience and professionalism made it happen! 25th move for us and the best removal company that we have experienced all round from front office service to survey to the move. First class.

The team from Britannia, led by Dan, were absolutely outstanding. From the day Dan and Shaun arrived to pack everything to the day of our move they could not have been better. Helpful, polite and great company. They made the whole moving experience as painless as can be. I cannot speak too highly of this firm and their people

I found Britannia to be professional and efficient from my first contact with them through until the final delivery. The guys packed up my parents flat in the UK and shipped it out to Italy. I was kept informed throughout the process by Jenni Wyatt back at the Aylesbury office. The guys who did the packing were courteous and efficient and packed everything with due care. I was advised that transport to Italy could take longer than expected due to Covid, but was given an expected arrival date much sooner than I had expected. In fact, the date was brought forward by 4 days which was even better.

I cannot recommend these guys highly enough. They worked so hard, so fast and so efficiently over the two days it took to move us. Dan, Mick, Mark & Sean worked very well as a team and made the move very easy for the rest of us. They were very friendly and courteous. Thanks
