With all the necessary resources in Brussels to assist you, we assure you of a smooth and peaceful move.
Packing
AGS Coussaert Belgium also benefits from the AGS Group’s unique and advanced packing materials. Due to the size of the group and the number of operations carried out every year, our branch in Belgium is able to provide its clients with various cartons, tailored to the type of goods being transported. This increases the safety of the goods and allows for improved utilization of space, which reduces the cost of the removal.
In addition, AGS Coussaert uses a versatile, reusable plastic box that is designed for intra-European moves, thus making packing quicker and lowering the cost of packing material. This results in improved reactivity and superior service to our clients, at lower prices.
Short- and Long-Term Storage
If you are moving from Belgium, or have recently arrived back home and need storage, our 2500 m² warehouse, located in Brussels, is available for both short- and long-term storage for all your goods, including your vehicle. Your goods are protected with a modern security system. Forklifts are used onsite to facilitate the handling of your goods.

AGS Coussaert History
AGS Belgium is a successful moving company in operation since 1996.
In March 2009, a third-generation, family-owned company, Coussaert Sprl, was purchased by the AGS Group. The acquisition of Coussaert, a company that traded for more than 60 years in the Belgian market with an enviable reputation, has strengthened AGS’ presence in Belgium.
The new removals company in Belgium, AGS Coussaert, now has a stronger presence with larger operations, while keeping the same quality of services. This is to the advantage of our clients who will benefit from high quality services at no extra cost.

Overview of Belgium
Belgium is synonymous with quality chocolate and superb beer. Gastronomy and the love of food is a way of life here - an art de vivre. There are nearly 2 000 chocolate shops and 650 different types of beer. Some of the local favorite dishes include mussels and French fries – said to originate from Belgium.
Immensely rich in arts and culture, there are around 200 museums and 300 art nouveau centers in Brussels alone. The country was home to the famous surrealist painter, René Magritte (1898-1967) and the celebrated art nouveau master, Victor Horta (1861 – 1947), who has achieved worldwide acclaim for four of his architectural successes, designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites; the country has a total of 10 Unesco World Heritage Sites. The country is split into two main regions: Flanders in the north (a Dutch-speaking region) and Wallonia in the south (a French-speaking region). A German-speaking community can be found in eastern Wallonia. The residents of the capital, Brussels, are bilingual, but mostly French – ironic, since Brussels is an enclave of the Flemish region.
The Economy
Belgium is one of the founding members of the European Community (EC). With a dense population of approximately 10.5 million people, it is at the heart of one of the most industrialized regions. An extensive transport network of ports, canals, railways and highways, with high-tech transportation infrastructure is in place. The country has benefited immensely from its central geographic location, diverse industry and commerce sectors, excellent transport network and highly skilled, multilingual and productive work force. Exports and imports are almost equal to its GDP. With very few natural resources, large quantities of raw materials are imported. The industrial hub is located in the northern region of Flanders, and its manufactured goods are exported globally. Belgium’s economy therefore relies largely on trade and the performance of world markets. Trade is principally with other countries in the European Union, especially Germany, which it borders. The global financial crisis in 2008 affected Belgium’s banks, and a number of prominent banks received financial aid from the government. Economic recovery in 2011 is expected to continue at a slow but steady pace.
