Exciting additions to our import and export routes in the US
We have expanded our USA shipping routes even further. You can now ship baggage and export MoveCubes® to and from most of Illinois, including the Windy City itself, Chicago!
Chicago is home to Lake Michigan (one of the world's largest freshwater lakes) and boasts countless fascinating neighbourhoods. Other must-dos in Illinois include taking a boat ride along the Chicago River, shopping at boutique stores in Evanston and visiting Naperville for its family-friendly parks.
Covering more than two-thirds of towns and cities across the Prairie State, we can import and export shipments for our Boxes and Bags Shipping service. We also provide worldwide removal exports using our unique moving pod, the International MoveCube®. Our expanded coverage spans Glencoe in Northern Illinois to Kankakee in the south.
Stay tuned for more exciting updates as we broaden our reach across the good ol' USA!
What is the International MoveCube®?
For total peace of mind when moving to the US from overseas, we offer the MoveCube® — a robust shipping crate unique to our international removals company. You can fill it with anything from boxes of clothing and books to sofas, kitchen appliances, bicycles and musical instruments.
Choose from three MoveCube® sizes, depending on the size of your home: Large, Medium, and Small. Our container is designed to protect your possessions during long journeys. You can order several MoveCubes®, however, they may arrive on separate days. If you only have a handful of items to send, our boxes and bags shipping service to the USA is your most cost-effective option.
Each MoveCube® order includes a complimentary Starter Pack to help you pack your belongings. Inside, you'll find a roll of parcel tape, a tape gun, a box cutter, a marker pen, and a measuring tape. Plus, three plastic floor sheets help you estimate what fits inside a Large, Medium, and Small MoveCube® ahead of loading day.
