IntlMOVE - The simple way to Plan Your Move

There are important decisions to be made regarding what to ship to your new home.
This choice is easier if you have bought or leased a residence overseas.

If you have the room sizes and floor plan, you can easily determine how your furniture and possessions will fit in the rooms, but also consider the hallway, staircase and elevator/lift dimensions. In other words, does the piano, outsized entertainment center, sectional couch, or other furniture fit in these passageways? IntlMOVE

if you do not have housing agreements made, ensure the items you are taking are critical to you and your happiness in your new location. IntlMOVE

* Contact IntlMOVE 3 months before your moving date for a free guess.
* Plan what items you need to take with you to your new home.
* Make an itemized inventory list and establish the value ( in U.S. Dollars ) of the items for insurance purposes.
* Gather all documents ( passports, innoculation records and visas, if necessary ) and property to take with you.
* If you purchased new products, have the invoices available.
* Provide your overseas address, phonephone number and e-mail, so that you can be contacted and kept informed of your shipment's status.

IntlMOVE can pack everything for you or just your fragile items such as dishes, glasses, computers, televisions, and glass top tables just to name a few. We include the necessary boxing and wrapping materials.

If you choose to pack by yourself, we suggest you follow these guidelines:

* Never pack over the edge of the container.

* Use small boxes for heavy items such as books and tools.

* Double tape the bottom of the boxes.

* Do not over load the box. The box should be easily picked up by one person.

* Pots, Pans & Kitchen Utensils - fit items inside one another whenever possible to conserve space.

* China, Glassware, Dishware, Silverware, Small Picture Frames & Valuables - breakable items should be wrapped individually in paper. Large dishes and heavy items should always be placed on the bottom, and smaller items on top. Plates and dishes should be placed vertically, separated by wads of paper. We suggest 3" of paper on the bottom and 2" of paper between layers.

* Clothing, Linen, Towels & Draperies - fold and pack neatly in to clean cartons or dresser drawers.

* Mirrors & Paintings - carefully wrapped and put in mirror cartons.

* Lamps & Lampshades - remove the bulbs and shades, pack the lamp with linen or wrap separately and put into clean cartons. Shades should be wrapped with tissue and placed in large linen cartons.

* Rugs & Carpets - roll and wrap in plastic.

* Tools - remove all fuel from power tools (do not ship flammable fuel - EVER), pack tools in small cartons and wrap fragile items separately.
