Moving your family to another country is a big step. Alongside visas, schools and a new job, you also have to decide what to take, how to pack it, and how to get it through two customs offices safely.
Our international relocation service handles your belongings from your home in Pakistan to your new home abroad. One team plans the move, packs everything to export standard, clears customs and arranges delivery at the other end.

What Our International Relocation Service Includes
Pre-Move Survey and Planning
We survey your home, help you decide what to ship, sell or store, and give a written quote with volume and timeline.
Export-Standard Packing
Every item is packed to survive a long journey and several handlings.

What to Ship, Sell or Store Before You Move
Worth Shipping
Good furniture, carpets, books, kitchenware, clothes, personal items and anything with sentimental value. These are expensive or impossible to replace abroad.
Often Better to Sell
Large appliances, old furniture and items with Pakistani plugs or voltage. After freight and duty, buying new at the destination is often cheaper.
Worth Storing in Pakistan
Items you will need if you return, or that you want to keep but not ship. Our storage service keeps them packed, listed and dry.
Never Pack in the Shipment
Passports, cash, jewellery, medicines you need on arrival, and important documents. Keep these with you.
Tips for a Smooth International Relocation
- Do not ship items that are cheaper to buy abroad, such as large appliances with the wrong voltage
- Carry jewellery, documents and medicines in your hand luggage
- Photograph valuable items before packing
- Ask whether your quote is door-to-door or port-to-port
- Read our packing list for a UK move as a practical example
