Full-service moversTypical 2–3 bedroom household, door to door$1,809$4,974
Container (any)fcl · 7–14 days$1,800$3,200

Common add-ons

These services are often quoted separately. We do not publish dollar amounts here unless a sourced band exists for this corridor.

Add-onHow it’s priced
Packing serviceFull or partial packing is quoted after a survey. Fragile and custom packing is usually priced separately from the base move.
Storage in transitShort-term warehouse storage between collection and delivery. Ask for a daily or weekly rate in the quote, tied to your dates.
Shuttle / access feeApplies when a full-size truck cannot reach the door — narrow streets, long carry, or no elevator. Confirmed on survey, not from a generic table.
Piano or specialty itemsPianos, safes, and oversized art need specialist handling. Movers price these from the inventory list, not a site-wide average.
Pet relocationPets travel under separate airline and import rules. Ask a specialist; household-goods quotes do not include pet costs.
Vehicle shippingCars and motorcycles are a separate booking from household goods. International vehicle rates depend on the sailing, not this route’s furniture band.

How to plan your move

  1. Book movers about 42 days ahead — this corridor typically needs more notice than a local move.
  2. Prepare a room-by-room inventory for customs and for quotes. Volume, not rooms alone, drives sea-freight price.
  3. Confirm parking, elevator bookings, and walk-up access at both addresses. Shuttle or long-carry fees show up here, not in the headline range.
  4. Peak demand runs May–Aug. If dates are flexible, moving outside that window usually improves availability.
  5. Request at least three quotes from movers who operate this corridor. Compare what’s included (packing, insurance, transit window) — not headline price alone.
  6. Plan around a 3–5 days door-to-door window, plus customs clearance. Goods and people often arrive on different days.
