Moving Abroad

If you have decided to live overseas, whether for work, retirement or simply spending time in a holiday home, you need to know that you can send goods to any worldwide destination, confident in the knowledge that they will be protected at every stage and delivered carefully to your new home.

Fox has the skills and experience to ensure that your belongings are protected and transported carefully.  Your effects will need to be export packed and we will explain how they will be specially wrapped, protected and inventoried for the journey which they will undertake.

Our overseas coordinators have all the knowledge required to advise you on the necessary paperwork and documentation for the country to which you are moving and where necessary our local agents will assist you with the customs and import requirements for your furniture and effects.

Depending upon the size of the consignment and timescales required, there are several different systems to suit your needs.

By Sea - Full Container

The most cost effective method if you have a large enough volume of effects to justify a container for your own use. Standard size containers from 20 foot long are suitable for everything you may have in your home and business. Containers can usually be loaded and sealed at your home.

Groupage

An economical way of sending smaller consignments of furniture and personal effects (from a single item upwards), in a shared container so that you pay only for the volume of your goods

Less Than Container Load (LCL)

Your effects are packed and cased for shipment enabling quicker transit times especially to destinations which are less popular.

By Air - Airfreight

Suitable for smaller consignments or when you will need some effects urgently in your new country.

Wherever your new home is going to be, we will make sure that they are delivered safely by one of our accredited agents.
