Moving from one town to another is stressful enough, but when you’re moving to a whole new country, there are a lot of things to take into consideration. Providing both commercial and residential moving services since 1971, Becker Movers also offers their customers expert services when it comes to relocating internationally. Whether you’re moving on your own, with children, or with pets, the experienced movers provide professional, efficient services to ensure your move goes as smoothly as possible.

One of the most important aspects of any international move is making sure you are adequately prepared. Before you even start packing, do your best to familiarize yourself with the culture and language of your new home. You should also ensure that all necessary personal identification items, such as your passport, driver’s license, and entry documentation are valid and updated. Contact the consulate of your new home to collect all necessary legal documents and permits. It’s also important to check the destination country’s policies on restricted items, as well as figuring out what electrical items will and will not work, as power services can differ between countries.

If you’re bringing your furry friends along with you, make sure you have up-to-date copies of their health records. You should also consult with your veterinarian about your pet’s well-being during the journey.

If you have young kids in your family, be sure to talk to them about why you’re relocating and share fun and interesting facts about the new country. Upon arrival, make sure you check in with the U.S. Embassy for help with any questions or concerns.

No matter how far away you’re planning to go, Becker Movers will help you get there safely. Visit the moving company online for more information on international moving services. Call (585) 267-5736 and speak with a member of the moving staff for a free estimate on your international move.
