We are looking to move a motorhome from Prague to southern France and rather than drive are considering transporting it by truck. Does anyone know of a company which provides this service?
Thank you.
 
EM Rogers Here take a deep breath it won’t be cheap.

If you really don’t want to drive, then you could pay someone to drive it for you, just double check them and insurance.

4 Taxis @ £100 per journey which seems a reasonable estimate .
If you live next to the airport or the van is stored/delivered near an airport then you will save a bob or two

5 days?
It's a job, not a holiday. :p 😂

Read my post again, It is a ball park figure for the owners to fly over; drive the van themselves; and fly back.
So it is more of a holiday than a job.


Day 1 : Get to UK airport/ go through controls / flight/ Prague controls / get to MoHo / a few miles

Days 2 ,3 & 4 : Three days @ 300 mile a day. Not many owners would want drive 500 mile a day to save themselves one days subsistence and a site fee.
If my wife and I were doing it with our van I'd allow a couple of weeks!

Day 5 : reverse of day 1.



It will be interesting to what quotes the OP gets.

Cost will most likely be around £2,500 plus the dreaded VAT.

Be surprised if it’s that low, the route isn’t on a natural back load route. You could get it for that using a local groupage operator in Chec but I’d bet you’d struggle as it would be considered recovery not groupage.

If EM Rogers quote less than £4k I’ll be calling Lucy for a strong chat.
