Valence Removals: A Rhône Valley Move With Rules Still to Confirm
Valence removals follow a council procedure we could not read, because the site would not open for us, so this page lists the questions to put.
A few short questions. Nothing is sent until you check and confirm.
What is confirmed about a move to Valence?
Valence had 64,458 residents in INSEE's 2023 figures and is the largest town in Drôme, in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. It is the centre of the Valence Romans Agglo authority and its area is about 37 square kilometres (Etalab's API Géo).
The council has a page for people who are moving, but it returned HTTP 418 to our request on 1 November 2026, as did the home page. A page that blocks the tool cannot be quoted, so we hold no Valence notice period, charge or sign rule.
Customs duty and VAT on a change of residence are explained in our France customs guide.
What should you ask Valence before booking a lorry?
Ask the council three things first: whether a paid bay or a closed street needs its consent, how early the request must be lodged, and whether a façade lift changes the answer.
Then ask for the price, who supplies the signs, and who may apply: the householder or the removal company. Ask too whether lorries are kept out of the old centre at certain hours.
Pass each written answer to the removal company. A lead time or price from another city's page cannot stand in for Valence's.
Which towns and pages sit around Valence?
Romans-sur-Isère had 33,464 residents and Montélimar 40,595 in INSEE's 2023 figures; both lie in Drôme and answer to their own councils, whose moving procedures are unread.
The Lyon, Grenoble and Avignon pages describe other Rhône-Alpes councils, each with its own procedure. None of them stands in for Valence.
Stickers and the weekend lorry ban are set out in our guide to lorry rules and Crit’Air.
