The introduction of border controls and import duties since Brexit have finished off the "Man and Van" operators.

Hello

 By the time you have paid to transport the furniture, gone through the Customs performance/paperwork etc.  for bringing goods from a non EU country to an EU country & then  paid the VAT & Import Tax on those items -- it would be cheaper to buy your garden furniture here, there is a wide choice & often free delivery.

Cheers

Unless you are sentimentality attached to the furniture, you would save yourself a lot of hassle and aggravation if you purchased the furniture here.

There are some lovely sets available from various shops, Stylehouse near Punta Prima, General muebles in El Galan/ Blue Lagoon. Leroy Merlin, Siesta group.

Try Chevron secure couriers. Steve, he’s on FB. He knows all the relevant rules and regs.He does all the paperwork and keeps you updated on a daily basis. Extremely reliable. Check his FB page and give him a call.
