Some services have been reintroduced using alternative routes; however, these are very fluid and could be withdrawn after initially being reinstated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new routes often involve an overland leg and can have high additional costs which vary on a continuous basis, meaning long-term quotes are impossible. Likewise, the rates in place before the conflict started are no longer being honoured by shipping lines, which may see previous quotes from movers increase significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note that many other international shipping destinations are affected to varying degrees as well. Please read the document (the link is below) carefully for full details of different destinations and the current issues affecting international and UK moves (not all of which are directly related to the Middle East conflict).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bar.co.uk\/global-shipping-conditions-1st-july-2026\/\">BAR Global Shipping Conditions Update \u2013 July 1 2026.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New updates from the BAR will be added to the website as they become available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you require more information, please contact us on 0800 246 5622.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Hamiltons Removals, we are committed to keeping you informed of the external factors affecting international removals due to the regional conflict involving Iran.
