We are one of the few companies who can safely say that the vast majority of our work is handled in-house by our own crews. Your move will not be outsourced to the cheapest provider, meaning your move remains in our control, every step of the way.
Shipping abroad can be complex with each country’s customs requirements and local regulations being different. The precise cost for shipping or air freight will depend on the exact size (and sometimes the weight) of your consignment.
We recommend air freight if you require your effects promptly. If you wish to ship most or all of your household effect we recommend FCL (Full Container Load) for your removals to Malta.
For smaller shipments, we recommend our part load (groupage) service as the most practical and cost effective option. The exact price will depend on the cubic capacity, container size, and service required. Part loads will be returned to our warehouse for consolidation and loading. Full load, FCL (Full Containers Load) are loaded at our warehouse as we have bespoke level loading bay facilities here on site.
Our expert packing service provides a detailed Electronic inventory for customs and is suitable for use with ‘all risk’ marine insurance cover.

The tourism industry is a significant contributor to Malta’s economy, accounting for a significant portion of the country’s GDP, whilst its manufacturing industry focuses on electronics, pharmaceuticals, and aerospace. Malta’s strong financial industry, which focuses on insurance and investment management, attracts many international companies looking to establish a presence in Europe. The cost of living is relatively average for a European Country, being higher than in Eastern European Countries but lower than those in Central Europe.

The bus service is operated by Malta Public Transport and offers a range of ticket options, including single, day, and weekly passes. Car rental is a popular option for visitors to Malta, and there are several international car rental companies operating on the island.

With so much on offer, then it won’t be surprising to find that there is also a lot to occupy your time with. With some of the oldest freestanding structures in the world, the Megalithic Temples are a must, special mention goes to the Hagar Qim and and Mnajdra, which date back to 3600 BC.
