How to Move to the USA from Australia
We’re the experts in international relocations in Australia, and we can help you move to the USA with ease.
We can help you move to the following North American destinations:

- All major east coast ports
- Including inland states
- Hawaii
- Alaska

Moving from Australia to USA - Worry-Free
We service all these destinations via the west coast or east coast as shared services or direct with full container loads.
- Full container loads (FCL) – the quickest way to transport your belongings by sea. Your items are loaded into the container by themselves.
- Shared container loads (Groupage) – a great option if you’re watching your budget. Items will be loaded into a container together with other goods and the shipping cost will be shared. Unlike FCL, transit times are a bit longer in order to make up full loads.
- Less than full container loads (LCL) – for small shipments that must be sent as soon as possible, LCL makes an ideal choice. Your belongings are wrapped and secured in a wooden crate and placed into a container with other goods.
- Airfreight – the quickest mode to move your stuff. We use a modular carton pack that eliminates spare space thereby allowing you to save on charges. Our design is cost-effective and secure.
The packing of your household items and furniture requires careful attention. All items should packed and wrapped by skilled packing teams for shipping overseas. The items are labelled individually to ensure easy identification. An inventory will be included to make sure your items are complete when they arrive at the destination.
When moving to America from Australia, it will give you peace of mind to know that your valuable and fragile items are carefully packed using bubble wrap, custom crating or foam molding.
