    You might want to amend your title to be more specific so someone who can help knows to open it. ('Go Advanced' to amend.)

    They do trips to the UK and would be willing to fill their van with your stuff on return.

    They are also cheaper if you ask them to go to the UK and get your stuff than what a UK firm would charge for the same job.

    We have moved from England to Scotland and back again and then within Scotland so different depots each time.
    We have used Pickfords each time and been happy with the service we received.

    They do overseas removals.

    I know a removals company specialising in overseas removals - I know they have carried out many overseas moves in europe including France and Italy. They are called cwraight removals

    We were kept up to date with the removal, the manager spoke English and the courier helped my partner unload all our stuff into the garage!

    I would agree with the suggestion of using an Italian company taking it as a return load. In your situation being very flexible over when the removal happens should get you a good price.

    I would first ask for a few quotations from UK companies to get an idea of their costs as a comparison.
