How to Move Internationally

No matter where you are moving overseas, the shipping process is moderately similar. Our representatives will work with you through the whole door to door process from one home to the next.

Initial International Moving Advice

Determining how much you want to move internationally is a vital step. Once you know your volume, you will have a better understanding of the services needed. It’s one of the more important questions to ask before an international move and it depends on your budget as well as where you will be living abroad.

Overseas Household Shipments Include:

• Full households, condo, or apartment in consolidation or sole container
• Partial ie. offices, secondary contents(military)
• Furniture
• Antiques & heirlooms
• Anything else you have

You’ll also need to consider if you should move certain items. For instance, electric outlets for appliances vary by country. If you’re considering shipping furniture overseas, think about the difference in space between your home in the USA and residence in your destination country.

Regardless of how much you decide to bring, we offer options for any size move. Your personal effects and items will be handled by our team that has over 40 years of experience packing, loading and shipping household goods overseas.

How Much Does it Cost to Move Overseas?

After figuring out your volume, you will want to get quotes from international moving companies. As with any relocation, international moving costs are based on multiple factors. These include the type of service, volume of your shipment, origin location, and final destination country.

Type of Service

Are you using a shared groupage service or shipping your goods inside your own 20ft or 40ft container? Are you paying for a door to door service or door to port?

Does the service include destination terminal handling fees? These questions can cause headaches during an already stressful time because not all quotes are created equal, even when they say they are!

So you could end up paying hundreds of dollars in hidden fees because you didn’t compare the different international moving quotes you received correctly.
