  • Category : Residential

There are many reasons to ship your belonging overseas. Shipping them may be more cost effective than the replacement costs for furniture, dishes, linens and more. Using a moving truck service may be impossible and more expensive than a shipping vessel. Having the comforts of your previous home in your brand new country can make the move less of an adjustment. Always use a reputable shipping agent, like Crown, as we can help you with all of the details and guide you toward your best personal relocation solution.

1. Find a qualified mover like Crown

3. Line up child care for moving days (departure and arrival)
4. Pack the kid’s room last / unpack it first
5. Don’t enforce regular rules – Keep the kids happy!
6. Moving with a newborn? One parent should handle the move and the other the baby.
7. Slow down – Give yourself time to rest between move days and travel.
