Door-to-Door Service with Expert Destination Support
We work with a world-class network of overseas moving agents to ensure the same care and attention is given at your destination as you receive here in the UK.
Your assigned destination agent will handle everything from import paperwork and customs clearance to delivery and unpacking in your new home. Our crews will also remove all packing materials after unpacking, so you can settle in without the mess.

Planning an International Move? Get Expert Advice First
Moving overseas can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. Our detailed International Moving Guide is packed with expert tips, timelines, and advice to help you prepare, pack, and settle abroad with complete confidence.
Individual and Groupage Shipments
Depending on the size of your move, we offer two types of international shipping. You’ll be advised of the best option during your pre-move survey.
Full Container Load (FCL)
If your move is large enough, your belongings will be packed into a dedicated 20' or 40' metal container at your home and taken directly to port.
Groupage (Shared Container Service)
If your shipment is smaller, your items will be carefully barcoded and stored at our secure depot before being shipped alongside other loads. This is a cost-effective option and ideal for smaller moves.
How Long Will It Take?
We understand timing is important. Most international shipments have weekly sailings, although transit times can vary depending on the destination, weather, port congestion, or global shipping conditions.
We recommend getting in touch as early as possible so we can match the right sailing schedule to your budget and timeline.
