Conducting removals to the Greek islands is a fascinating business. We never cease to be amazed by the beautiful locations our customers choose to live, and we’re always up for the challenge. This time a customer was moving from the UK to the tiny island of Hydra, off the Peloponnese in Greece, and contacted us to help with his removal. There was just one problem, he said: trucks aren’t allowed on the island! In fact all vehicles are completely prohibited. Not ones for shying away from a challenge, we didn’t hesitate to take on the job.
Removals to Hydra involve firstly parking the truck at the “port” on the mainland, before carefully transferring the goods into a small boat! On arrival on the island, it’s time to load up the… donkeys! That’s right, donkeys. This is not our normal modus operandi, but when in Rome…
And finally, the delivery into the customer’s house (which was relatively easy compared to the odyssey we had undertaken to get here). Our customer Mr Burgess was very helpful and even insisted on helping us carry the goods into his home. All in all it was a great job, and another one for the Nomad history books.
Compared to this job, most of our removals to and from the Greek islands are relatively straightforward! But every job involves a certain degree of difficulty. We’re lucky to have an outstanding team who are capable of doing even the toughest of removals, while still having fun. If you want to move to or from the Greek mainland or any of the Greek islands, Nomad International is the company to use.
