What makes international moves different

Moving across a border is a different challenge.
Most people find that out too late.

  • Every country has different customs regulations — one missing document and your belongings are held at the border
  • You don't know whether to ship by truck, sea container, or air — and no one explains the real difference
  • Your belongings travel thousands of kilometres and you have no idea where they are or when they'll arrive
  • Standard household insurance doesn't cover international transport — and most people only discover this after something breaks

We've managed international moves for over 20 years. We've seen every complication — and we know how to prevent them.

What's included

Your move, managed
from door to door.

True Door-to-Door Service

We pack at your current home, handle transport across borders, and deliver directly to your new address — anywhere in the world. One service, one team, one invoice.

Customs Documentation Handled

We prepare all required customs paperwork for your destination country. No forms to decipher, no declarations to guess. We've done it before — we know what each country requires.

Right Transport Mode for Your Move

Truck for European moves. Sea container for intercontinental. Air freight for urgent or high-value shipments. We advise you on the best option for your distance, timeline, and budget.

Export Packing Standards

International transport requires stronger packing than a local move. We use export-grade materials and specialist wrapping — your belongings arrive in the same condition they left.

Shipment Tracking Throughout

You always know where your belongings are. Your project manager keeps you updated at every stage — from pickup in Switzerland to delivery at your new address.

Full International Insurance

Your household contents are covered for the entire journey — not just while in Switzerland. If anything is damaged in transit, it's covered. Your standard home insurance won't do this.

How it works

Three steps.
We handle the rest.

Questions & Answers

Questions we get about
international moves.

Which countries do you move to and from?
We handle moves throughout Europe by truck and worldwide by sea container or air freight. Whether you're moving to Germany, the UK, the USA, Australia, or anywhere else — contact us and we'll advise on the best route and transport mode for your destination.
How long does an international move take?
Within Europe by truck: typically 3–10 days depending on destination. Intercontinental by sea container: 4–8 weeks. Air freight: 3–7 days. We give you a clear delivery window when we confirm your booking — and we keep you updated throughout.
What customs documentation do I need?
Requirements vary by country. We handle all standard customs paperwork as part of our service and advise you on any documents you personally need to provide (such as proof of residency or import permits). We've done this for dozens of countries — you won't be navigating it alone.
Can you ship my car as well?
Yes. Vehicles can be transported as part of your international move — either in a shared container or a dedicated one depending on size and destination. Ask us about this during your consultation and we'll include it in your quote.
What if my belongings are delayed or held at customs?
Your project manager monitors the shipment at every stage. If there's a customs issue, we handle communication with the relevant authorities directly. Proper documentation from the start is our best prevention — which is why we prepare it carefully before your goods ever leave Switzerland.
