The MoveCube® — a mini shipping container to your door

Relocating to a different country can feel like an ever-growing to-do list of tasks. Thankfully, by hiring Seven Seas Worldwide to do the hard work for you, worrying about the ins and outs of shipping household goods overseas is one thing you can tick off.

Entirely unique to our overseas moving company, the MoveCube® is our revolutionary removals solution. It's essentially a shipping container purposely designed to safely and securely transport furniture and personal belongings internationally that we deliver to your door.

The process begins by generating your free instant shipping quote, selecting convenient dates for us to collect and deliver your shipment and placing an order. We'll then bring your MoveCube® and complimentary packing materials, including brown tape, a black marker pen and, with Large MoveCubes®, purpose-built shipping boxes, directly to your address. Then, complete the online documentation we'll send to your account (don't worry, this is simply an inventory of the items you're shipping and optional insurance forms!), and we'll handle the rest.

There are three sizes of MoveCube® for you to choose from, Small, Medium and Large, and we can also deliver multiple containers for bigger loads. Plus, as you only pay for what you use, if you find you need a smaller cube size, let us know a few working days before, and we'll swap it for you.

Whether you're relocating for a dream job, studying at a world-renowned university or simply off on an adventure, what better place to move than the dear old Blighty, where the people are polite, the humour's tongue-in-cheek and the pubs are plentiful. However, before you pack your bags and book your flights, there're a few things you need to know about moving to the UK:

Types of visas: the type of UK visa you choose will depend on your reasons for relocating to the country, with the most common ones being Skilled Worker and Student visas. Do note, though, you can only apply three months before the start of your new job or university course.

Job opportunities: career opportunities are most plentiful in UK cities such as London, Manchester and Edinburgh, especially in the financial and technology sectors. Britain also boasts an excellent work-life balance as, by law, companies have to offer at least 28 days holiday, and most office-based roles stick to regular nine-to-five hours.

Healthcare: once you become a legal resident in the UK, you'll have access to top-notch free healthcare through the National Health Service (NHS). However, you do have to pay for dentistry treatments and opticians.

Education: the UK is chock-a-block with exemplary educational institutions, from secondary schools to universities. In fact, the Brits practically invented the concept of higher education, and both Oxford and Cambridge consistently rank in the top ten best universities in the world.

Lifestyle: while they're famous for their sarcastic wit, the British are also big-hearted and have a long history of warmly welcoming other nationalities to their country. And don't worry about the weather, as a drizzly day offers the perfect opportunity to indulge in classic UK comfort food like fish and chips or a Sunday roast.
