MOVING TO USA ?

Planning to move to the United States? The population consists of 327 million. Currency is the US dollar while the major language is English. The capital city is Washington D.C. The other major cities are Los Angeles, New York City, and Chicago. To ship your belongings to the United States is quite easy. You have to decide how you like to do it.

The main shipping options are sea freight and air freight.

It is quicker when a cargo plane gets your things to the US from anywhere in the world in 2-3 days. You have to pay a proper premium for an air freight service and this would be expensive.

The sea freight costs five times much lesser than air freight, making it an affordable option.

The container ships take several weeks to complete their journey, so plan your move.

When you choose a sea freight, your items get shipped in a 20 feet container or a 40 feet container. Don’t fill the whole container with stuff, if you bring 15 cubic metres of cargo, so you can share the use of a container with other people. The process is called Less Than Container Load or LCL.

Majority of our shipping suppliers give a full door-to-door service. That means they take care of the whole process.
