London to Brussels, by road via northern France

Pricing comes from the quote tool with your real addresses. The crossing ticket is separate, and we confirm the final price before you book.

01 / Two ways to send your pet

With you in the car, or travelling without you

Accompanied

You ride with your dog or cat from London to Brussels. Your pet stays with you in the vehicle, including during the crossing. Add extra passengers, pets and luggage in the quote tool.

Unaccompanied

For owners who have flown ahead or cannot travel that day. Moving a pet without its owner can fall under different movement rules, so we review the paperwork with you before confirming. Someone must be ready to receive the pet in Brussels.

Discuss unaccompanied transport

Suited to owners on a posting, students and families moving to Belgium who want their pet with them, or delivered privately, rather than flown.

02 / The route

London to Brussels, stop by stop

Brussels sits inland from the coast, reached by road through northern France and into Belgium after the crossing. The final approach depends on your destination commune and traffic around the Brussels ring; a city-centre apartment and an outer-area home need different arrival arrangements.

What helps at each end

Collecting in London

  • Work moves and postings

    Moving for a job or posting? Share your required dates so we can check journey availability before you arrange the rest of the move.

  • Exact London address

    Give the full address and any access notes. Pickups outside London are possible once confirmed.

  • Calm pet, prepared bag

    Pack water, food, lead, waste bags and any medication where you can reach them during breaks.

Arriving in Brussels

  • Commune matters

    Brussels is made up of several communes. Give the full street address, not just the city, so the quote is accurate.

  • Apartment buildings

    Tell us about lift access and where a vehicle can stop briefly to unload. Agree how the receiving person will meet the driver.

  • Waterloo, Leuven or Antwerp instead?

    Enter the real destination in the quote tool. Other Belgian addresses are possible once confirmed and priced.

04 / Paperwork

Check the official rules first

Pet travel rules change, so we do not reproduce them here. Read the current GOV.UK guidance and speak to your vet well before your travel date. You are responsible for valid documents; vets and border authorities decide whether they are acceptable. For unaccompanied transport, we review the movement paperwork with you before confirming.
