Relocating to Sussex
Moving to Sussex from Canada, whether East or West Sussex, brings an exciting change when choosing a charming county like Sussex, with its historic villages, rolling hills, and access to the sea. A great decision whether moving for work, education, or a lifestyle change. Planning ahead makes a big difference. Bekins Worldwide, using its decades of international move experience and expertise, is here to help you, with both the best time of year to move and what to expect on the day you move into your new residence.
The best time to relocate to Sussex is late spring, particularly May to early July. During this period, Sussex enjoys mild weather, longer daylight hours, and the beautiful English countryside is in full bloom. Services like utilities, bank appointments, and moving logistics are easier to arrange. Moving in the spring lets you settle before the UK academic year begins in September, which is ideal if you have children. Additionally, property availability tends to be higher, during these months, giving you better options to find a comfortable rental or home.
After a likely long flight, followed by customs and possibly jet lag, your move-in day, in Sussex, will be both exciting and overwhelming. What you will expect depends on your planning. International shipping move management often includes door-to-door service, although you may choose to collect your items directly from UK customs. Bekins clients typically choose to have help with customs clearance and final delivery. As customs clearance and their storage charges become known, delivery arrangements, including street permits, securing the right accessibility equipment, etc. becomes possible. Your desired move in time and date is secured. Your preparations for electricity, gas, water, and broadband are respected, with the move in being done in harmony with them.
Expect a few cultural quirks. British homes tend to be smaller and may have differences like separate hot and cold taps and electrical outlets or wall-mounted electric heaters. While people are generally friendly, you might also notice a more reserved style of interaction… don’t take it personally!
Moving from Canada to Sussex is a big step, but with careful planning, the transition can be smooth and even enjoyable. Embrace the change, take your time settling in, and before long, you’ll be sipping tea in your garden, while soaking in the South of England charm.
