What Overseas Moving Entails

Many people don't realize all the different services that come with moving your belongings overseas. Sure, you can just book a flight and bring everything with you in one go, but what if you have a lot of items? Or what if you have delicate things that need to be taken care of?


That's where our company comes in. We are experts in overseas moving, and we offer a variety of services to make your move as easy and stress-free as possible.

  • Delivery Service (To The Port)

    We will pick up your items from your home and deliver them directly to the port. This is a great option for people who don't have a lot of time or energy to spend on packing and transport.

  • Delivery Service (To-Door)

    We will pick up your items from your home and deliver them directly to your new home overseas. This is a great option for people who want their belongings to arrive at their new home as soon as possible. It's also a good option for people who have a lot of stuff or delicate items that need special care.

  • Port Fees & Taxes

    Many people don't realize that there are additional fees and taxes when you're shipping items overseas. When you use Avant-Garde Moving, we include all of these fees and taxes in our quoted price, so you don't have to worry about any hidden costs.

  • Flexible Delivery Options

    We know that everyone's schedule is different, so we offer flexible delivery options to make sure that your move goes as smoothly as possible. Whether you need your belongings delivered on a specific date or within a certain timeframe, we can work with you to make sure that everything arrives when you need it.

  • Special Crates

    If you have any artworks, antiques, or delicate pieces that need to be moved, we can provide special crates for them. This ensures that these items are protected during transport and arrive at their destination safely.

What to Keep in Mind When Moving Overseas 

When making an overseas move, there are a few key things you'll need to take into account.

  • All The Necessary Paperwork

    Depending on where you're moving to, you may need to obtain a work visa or student visa in order to legally reside in your chosen country. Make sure to do your research and apply for the appropriate visa well in advance of your move. 

  • Housing & Cost of Living

    Be sure to research the cost of living in your new location. This will help you budget for your move and ensure that you can afford the lifestyle you want.

  • Culture Shock

    Culture shock is a very real phenomenon, and it can be hard to cope with if you're not prepared for it ahead of time. This is why it's a good idea to read up on the culture of your chosen destination before making the move—that way, you know what to expect and can hit the ground running when you arrive in your new home. 

  • Language Barriers

    It's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the local language. Even if you only know a few basic phrases, this can go a long way in helping you feel more comfortable in your new surroundings.

  • Local Resources

    Find out about local resources that can help you settle into your new home. For example, many cities have welcome centers or expat groups that can offer advice and support.

  • Declutter Your Home

    First, start by decluttering your home and getting rid of anything you don't need or want to take with you. This will not only make packing easier, but it will also help to reduce the cost of your move. 

  • Make Arrangements for Pets

    If you're bringing any animals with you on the move, be sure to research the laws and regulations in your new country regarding pet ownership. You'll also need to make arrangements for their transportation!

COI (Certificate of Insurance)

If you’re moving in or out of the apartment building, your building may require your moving company to submit a Certificate of Insurance (COI) before the movers can even step inside it. 


COI legacy protects buildings in case of any damages and building management often requires documentation and proof of insurance to ensure moving company is properly covered.


COI is included in our rates and all you have to do is send us a sample/coi requirements from the building management.
