Schepens Offer Customer-Centred Removals From Sweden to UK

Over the last 50 years we’ve liberated ourselves from being bound by the country in which we were born. And at Schepens we have regular evidence of this. Students move abroad to study, and then to another country to start their first job. Young professionals are relocated, and then find a taste for working and living abroad. Older couples dream of retiring to the country they’ve been visiting for years.

This changing view of where we live, and how we work is facilitated by a whole raft of new technologies and services. For the past few decades, flights have been cheap, and airbnb rentals make weekends abroad a realisable goal. Maintaining contact with loved ones, wherever you are in the world, is now much easier thanks to smart phones. And businesses now have the tech and the perspective to think globally as well as locally, or nationally.

Back in 2013 Canada was the third most popular destination for British Expats, pipped to the post by Australia and the USA. Following on from the UK Referendum in 2016, Canada’s popularity as a destination made headlines once again. Six weeks after the result, applications for Canadian visas spiked as did requests for permanent residency.

Canada is currently home to over 700,000 expats. Some of them have relocated there for work, but many are seeking a new life on a new continent. The ongoing allure of this country is its familiarity – it seems quite like home, and the dominant language for most of the population is English. Plus, it’s a country enjoying financial prosperity, which makes it easier for Brits to migrate there.

Known as Pompey to the locals, Portsmouth is a perfect a slice of British trading history. Henry VIII first recognised its importance by founding the British Royal Navy here in 1527. Roll on to the 21st century and Portsmouth is still one of the UK’s busiest ports. Only now its most regular visitors are cruise liners and passenger ferries, rather than trading vessels and war ships.

If you’re moving to Portsmouth you’ve every reason to be excited about the potential it provides. The university city brings a new influx of students into the city each year, and the newish Gunwharf Quays makes it a paradise for shoppers.

If you’ve fallen in love with the Dorset landscape, but you want to be close to the services a city can offer, Wimborne Minster is the ideal location. It sits just 10 miles north of Bournemouth where the rivers Stour and Allen become one.
