Moving furniture and personal effects overseas requires a survey, professional packing, a detailed inventory and destination-specific customs preparation.

Shipment survey

List rooms, furniture, fragile items, appliances and special pieces. A survey helps estimate packed volume and compare LCL, lift-van and full-container options.

Packing and inventory

  • Use export-grade cartons and cushioning
  • Crate fragile or irregular items
  • Prepare a numbered inventory
  • Keep documents and medicines with you
  • Never pack prohibited or undeclared goods

Air and sea options

Air suits smaller urgent consignments. Sea LCL suits moderate volumes, while a dedicated container can be practical for larger household moves.

Customs and insurance

Requirements may include passport and visa copies, residence documents, a packing list and declarations. Request transit insurance and confirm the delivery scope.
