Our customers can now benefit from having the UK's top removals firm looking after their overseas move."

Abels Moving Services, which is the only remover with a Royal Warrant to HM the Queen, will add removals, shipping, storage and packing services, together with full relocation and even a personal assistant service, to those offered by Unique Living.

Neil Pertoldi, Abels' general manager for international services, said: "We have been moving people abroad for generations and currently half of all our business is international. We understand the stress that people go through when moving home, magnified when that move is abroad, and we do everything we can to ensure that the move is as smooth and stress-free as possible."
