Denver Overseas Moving

When making an international move, there are two ways to move your household goods: by air and by sea. Obviously, it will take longer for your items to arrive if you’re moving them by boat. This option usually saves you money, and sometimes provides the best means of transport. When trying to decide, look at both options in terms of cost, factoring in any furnished rentals you may need to pay for in the interim. If moving by sea, your household goods will be packed into containers that are usually loaded at your residence. These containers are seaworthy and usually made of wood. Once your home is packed into the containers, they are then shipped by rail or transport to the port where they are then loaded on to a steamship container. The container is then loaded on the boat as cargo. Once your goods have arrived in the new country, the container is unloaded and must pass through customs. International movers will be able to help you with the custom forms and are responsible for clearing your goods. Moving household items by air is becoming increasingly popular, despite a much higher price tag than shipping by boat. Heavy cardboard boxes are normally used to pack your goods, although some airfreight companies will use containers. I strongly recommend that you downsize the amount of stuff you move if you’re moving by air. Leave books with friends or investigate long-term storage options. Just include the monthly fees in your moving budget when determining how much it will cost you to move. You may find that shipping items by air is less expensive than renting a furnished place to live or hotel costs.

Careful packing is one of the most important tasks in the moving process. How your household memories are wrapped, cartoned and protected prior to transit can mean the difference between a pleasant moving experience and disappointment on move-in day. Professionally trained packers work with ease and efficiency. They go from room to room, and select the proper carton and cushioning materials for each item. Crystal, glassware and dishes, for example, easily fit into custom dish pack cartons. Each item is individually wrapped with clean newsprint before being placed within the protective walls of our corrugated cartons. A team of packers can complete the job in far less time than you might think — because they pack household memories daily. When customers choose to pack for themselves, we want to provide as much assistance as possible. We can offer you our full complement of cartons, plus our range of cushioning materials and tape. You might elect to have us pack the more delicate, fragile or hard-to-pack items — such as paintings, antiques, clocks, collectibles, lamps and glassware. Whatever you decide, we both want to make sure all household memories are carefully protected during this important phase of your move.

Thank you to Metro Moving and Storage for a seamless and professional moving experience! The 4 guys moved all our big heavy pieces including an upright piano (!), a treadmill, a couple of heavy desks, recliners and a large snowblower among others. We were scheduled for 8 hours but the guys completed the entire move in 3! Kudos and many thanks. Highly recommend them.read more

What a wonderful experience! Charles did our estimate and was great at explaining our options for moving and the cost of each option. I had difficulty reaching the company when trying to revise the estimate but when I got through they were wonderful. Tor moved us to our new apartment and was great. Made sure not to hit any walls with the furniture like other movers had done (the last movers we had to patch our walls because of holes). We were downsizing so our furniture had to go into 2 trucks and they made sure that the boxes were in the right trucks. Excellent service!!!read more

Great experience. Chris and CJ arrived early, introduced themselves and got right to work.The scope was bigger than any of us anticipated.They were gracious and worked tirelessly throughout a long day. We had a lot of heavy items in our basement, which they managed flawlessly. Chris and C.J. were careful with our possessions, and careful not to ding walls.I would hire them again without hesitation, and have already recommended Metro Moving and Storage to friends planning a move.read more
