If there is a choice, we recommend you keep clear of the summer holiday season in December and January. These are the months where the heaviest demand is placed on trucks, equipment, port facilities and personnel. When moving internationally there can be added pressure due to government and port workers taking their holiday breaks.

You should give us as much notice as possible, especially if you are moving in the holiday seasons. As a rule of thumb, you should call about an International Move 2-3 months before the moving out date, 6-8 weeks for an Inter-Island Move and 4-6 weeks for a Domestic or Local Move. In some circumstances this isn’t possible, we will work in with you at short notice if necessary. Call our friendly team on: 0730 985 5855

Having insurance protection will help you sleep at night, until everything is safely delivered. Accidents, unforeseen weather conditions, poor road conditions and risk events can occur at anytime, even with the most careful of moving companies.

When moving internationally, there are additional risks. After your goods are packed they will be passing into the hands of other organisations including rail and shipping companies, airlines, handling agents and customs and quarantine officials.

All cartons, items and packages are numbered and labelled during packing. We then prepare a comprehensive inventory, prior to anything leaving your home. All inventoried items are checked off and signed for as they’re loaded out. Our customers are generally on site and sign off the inventory with their crew leader. This process is repeated every time a shipment is loaded into or out of storage and at your destination.

In many instances this is possible. If you have any of the original packing or boxes from your appliances or household items let our crew leader know. Depending on whether we have superior materials available and the condition of the original material a decision can be made.
