Our International Storage Services

Our storage solutions offer a bridge during the interim of your relocation, safeguarding your possessions and providing you with the assurance that everything is secure while you establish your new home.

Storage in Transit (SIT)

Storage in transit (SIT) is an invaluable service during the interim of your move, offering a secure haven for your items until you’re ready to welcome them into your new space. Whether it’s a delay in housing arrangements, unexpected setbacks, or simply the need for additional time, our SIT services are here to accommodate.

Here’s how it works:

• We meticulously pack and transport your items from your original location to your new country.
• Upon arrival, your belongings are stored in a secure container at one of our local warehouses.
• Your furniture and possessions are shielded from dust and damage on specialized racks, enveloped in protective stretch wrap.
• When your new home is ready, we promptly deliver your items to your doorstep.

Our SIT services are economically priced at 50 cents per cubic foot per month, prorated to your specific needs.

The average monthly cost for long-term storage spans from $74 to $181 for standard containers and $90 to $266 for climate-controlled units, varying by the volume of your belongings

Ocean Freight

Ocean freight remains the cornerstone of international moving, favored for its cost-effectiveness and security. Whether you opt for a Full Container Load (FCL) for exclusive use or a Less than Container Load (LCL) to share space, we offer both 20-foot and 40-foot containers to accommodate the scale of your move. Costs and transit times will vary, but our team will provide a tailored solution that aligns with your timeline and budget.

Air Freight

For those under time constraints, air freight offers a swift alternative. While more costly than ocean freight, it ensures your items arrive in a fraction of the time. It’s an ideal solution for urgent relocations or transporting high-value items that demand expedited delivery.
