Planning an International Move Now Requires Special Expertise

August 27, 2020 by admin

Moving from the United States to another country was never a super easy process, but by and large it was manageable, especially if you worked with an experienced international moving company. Factor Coronavirus into the mix, and things are now even more complex.

Any international move has two primary components: moving the people, and moving their things. Right now, it’s the people portion of this equation that’s especially complex.

Each country is taking its own approach to immigration during COVID. Before you embark on your expat adventure, you need to be really sure what you’re getting into. It is essential to ensure you can actually get into the country you’re moving to! If that’s a yes, make sure you’ve undergone any required testing here, and be prepared to be tested and required to quarantine when you arrive. Some other countries are much less flexible about quarantine compliance. This may mean coordinating with your new employer, if appropriate, so expectations are framed appropriately.

Moving household possessions internationally is, by comparison, a relative snap. The trick to making international moves simple and stress free is to work with an experienced international moving company in Boston who can handle the entire job for you. From planning to packing, shipping, and coordinating final delivery, our team can do it all for you.

It is never too soon to begin planning your international move. Many people who are moving out of the country radically downsize their possessions to keep costs down, but that’s not always the best option. Some items may be very expensive or impossible to replace in your new home country. It’s a good idea to check prices and availability in your new country before you decide to toss or give away things you’ll want to have later on.

For more help with planning your international move, or to learn what the costs of an international move are, get in touch. We’re here to help.

"I just wanted you to know that working with Boston Pack and Ship was great! You not only made everything easy for me, but you kept me advised of any changes in the schedule. You even provided me with the cell phone numbers of your driver in case I had any questions! From the beginning I felt like you cared about my delivery as much as I did!!! Your customer service is outstanding. I wish more companies put their hearts into their service like Boston Pack and Ship does! With confidence, I would reccommend Boston Pack and Ship for everyone's moving needs, big or small."

I used Boston Pack and Ship to send an antique piece of furniture from Boston to Sedona, AZ. I can't say enough about their service and the quality of the packing. Item arrived on the day they said it would and was in pristine condition. Easy to work with and great customer service. Highly recommend.

I hired Boston Pack and Ship to move two items from my storage unit in the Boston area to my home in Florida. Gene Sullivan was 110% responsive. He picked up the items on time, packed them expertly; and they arrived in perfect condition about ten days after pick up. I could not ask for better service. Five stars is not enough!

We at Casey Movers do not hesitate to refer our customers to this business for shipments we do not think we are best suited for (smaller inter-state shipments under 3,000lbs, etc). Have had great feedback from clients that have utilized this service. Thank you from all at Casey Movers for providing top notch service and have a great new year!
