International movers guide
Many a time the customs regulations and various bureaucratic tangles of the host country, mar the joy of international relocation. It only adds to the stress. While there is an underlying element of challenge and adventure in visiting a new country, learning a new language, etc, the stressful surrounding situation can completely spoil your entire experience. Choosing the right international moving company can solve nearly all the problems which you envisage for your move. Firstly, reputed and experienced goods forwards and agents can make your household goods glide through customs without a hitch.
Before you make your international relocation, it is good to understand the different types of shipment which a service provider may offer:
Less than Container Load (LCL): In case you can not fill up an entire shipping container, you can ask your goods to be consolidated with other shipper’s goods inside the shipping container.
Full Container Load (FCL) Services: If your goods are sufficient to fill one container, ask for the maximum discounts for your shipment. The FCL is not just carrying your goods; it is free to load cargoes from various other suppliers.
The list below is designed to familiarize you with the different types of services which you may be offered:
Door to Port - This service includes packing and wrapping all your household goods including fragile items, picking them up from your door and delivering it to the carrier’s loading facility for export packing. This service includes preparation of all documents and releasing of all goods at the port of entry (destination).
Door to Door: As the name suggests this service includes packing and shipping all your goods and delivering at your doorstep in the host country. The service includes customs clearance, home delivery, unpacking and removal of all packing debris.
