Hello good people.

We are about to move from Turkey to Bulgaria and wondered if anyone had any recommendations they could share with regards to removal firms/people.

Would it be ok to drive our cats through the border ourselves or is it a better idea to use a firm?

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time

p.s. I do hope I have posted in the correct place

I can't answer your question but I know that [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] moved form Turkey so maybe he will be along and can advise you?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] might be able to recommend a transport company

We moved here from Turkey and all went well on the day.  Turkey will charge you tax on anything which was purchased less than six months before you left.  So on anything that you have purchased that is fairly new it is best to take the receipt with you on the day.  An inventory in English, Turkish and Bulgarian is also necessary for the frontier if they check on your goods.  The Erdine checkpoint has been awkward at times with Brits leaving Turkey and as a result we turned right before Erdine and went north for 12 K's and then left through the next frontier and sorry can't remember the name of the frontier.  A calm composure is necessary and a friendly disposition is useful to eleviate any problems with border staff.

Might seem daft but these guys in Bg are very good and not as expensive as you may think.
