Everything your move needs
Build Your Los Angeles Overseas Move Around the Services You Need
Los Angeles sits beside the busiest container-port complex in the country, so your shipment can leave by sea or air without a long inland leg. A full home can combine professional packing, custom crating and container shipping through to destination; a lighter load travels shared or by air. As established international movers in Los Angeles, we size the service to what you are shipping.
Custom Crating
Artwork, mirrors, glass and film or studio pieces travel in built-to-measure cases from our crating team.
Container Shipping
A full home ships in a dedicated container via our container shipping service, loaded in LA and sailing from the San Pedro Bay ports.
Shared Container and Air
Part-load? Your goods share a box under less-than-container-load international shipping and pay their share, while air freight handles urgent items from LAX.
Storage
Need a gap covered? Our storage service keeps your goods in containerized or climate-controlled space until your dates align.
Cars and Specialty Goods
From international car shipping to pianos, antiques and oversized pieces, we plan the handling those items demand.
From home to destination
