Different international moving companies deal with
different kind of international moves like door
(original location) to door (destination), door (original
location) to port (nearest port to the destination),
port (nearest port to the original location) to door
(destination).
First decide the kind of your international move based
on the above kinds of moves.
Based on the track record decide at least three good
international movers around you who can deal the best
with your kind of moving.
 Talk to all of them and compare the price and service
each one of them offers. Remember, the best mover always
offers or agrees to an on-sight inspection of your
household before giving an estimate.
Do not forget to ask for the license and carriers`
documents and also ask about the insurance policies they
offer. The best mover never claims that all goods are
covered by their insurance. For instance no mover
insures breakable goods.
Do not forget to ask for the local address of the mover
and also check whether their office exists.
Ask whether the company owns truck or not. Prefer
companies with their own trucks.
Ask about the storage facilities provided by the mover.
The best mover always provides storage facility. Some
time they might charge for storage but it is better than
our goods not being stored.
Do not trust movers who demand cash or a large deposit
before the move.
Last but not the least the best mover always provides
you with a copy of “Your Rights and Responsibilities
When You Move”, following the federal regulations.
