Across the border
Your Mexico Move, From First Box to Final Room
Mexico offers several transport options from the US, but the household-goods certificate and border clearance need to be prepared correctly. We have managed cross-border and overseas relocations since 1948. As your overseas moving company, we coordinate packing, consular documentation, transportation, customs clearance and inside delivery.
Your move can involve a few rooms or an entire household. Furniture, appliances, antiques, artwork and personal effects are managed under one plan, with a coordinator tracking the shipment and a customs broker supporting entry into Mexico. As international movers in the USA, we structure our international relocation services around moving to Mexico from the US, your destination and your preferred timing.
One coordinated move
Packing, consular paperwork, transport, customs clearance and delivery.
- Since 1948 Cross-border and overseas moves
- Nationwide collection In every US city

Everything your move needs
Our Mexico Moving Services
A Mexico relocation works best when the packing, consular paperwork, transport and broker coordination are connected from the beginning. As an international shipping company, we manage the services below as parts of one cross-border plan.
Vehicle Shipping
Vehicles are not covered by the household-goods certificate. Our international car shipping services handle the separate documentation and transport requirements for eligible vehicle moves.
Corporate Relocation
We support employer-led transfers into Mexico City, Monterrey and other commercial centers, coordinating household logistics through our door-to-door international relocation services and the required border documentation.
Storage
Secure storage on either side of the border can cover gaps between collection, residency documentation and availability of your Mexican residence.
Packing
Choose full packing or protection for selected fragile items through our packing services for overseas moves, prepared for road or ocean transport.
Crating
Custom crates protect artwork, glass, instruments and other sensitive pieces, while international piano movers handle large or difficult specialty items.
From home to destination
How Your Move to Mexico Works
Cross-border moving is more predictable when consular documentation, packing and customs clearance are sequenced correctly. We organize most Mexico moves through the following six stages.
-
Define the Route
Share your US collection point, Mexican destination and approximate shipment volume.
-
Review What Is Moving
A virtual or in-home survey confirms the inventory and identifies items requiring special handling.
-
Finalize the Plan
We agree on service scope, protection and target dates on both sides of the border.
-
Prepare Documents and Pack
We coordinate the household-goods certificate process while the crew prepares and loads your belongings.
-
Move Across the Border
Your shipment travels by road, sea or air and is cleared through a licensed customs broker.
-
Finish at Destination
We deliver to your Mexican residence and provide unpacking according to the selected service.
Flexible shipping choices
Choose the Right Shipping Method
Mexico gives you more routing flexibility than many international destinations. Shipment size, location, timing and budget determine whether road, ocean or air makes the most sense.
Best value for a whole house
Ocean or Road Freight
Larger household moves can use a dedicated full-container-load (FCL) or an overland solution, depending on the origin and Mexican destination.
Smaller moves
Shared Container
If your shipment does not justify a full container, less-than-container-load international shipping lets your goods travel in consolidated space and keeps the charge tied to the volume shipped.
Fastest option
Air Freight
Ideal for a small priority shipment when you want essential belongings available soon after arrival.
Prepare with confidence
Your Mexico Shipping Checklist
A well-prepared inventory and document set helps keep the consular, broker and delivery stages moving together. Complete these items before the packing date.
-
Prepare a detailed inventory
Include identifying information for electronics and other relevant items so the customs documentation can be completed accurately.
-
Arrange the consular certificate
Residents and returning nationals import used goods duty-free on a household-goods certificate; the Mexican consulate guidance walks you through it.
-
Confirm what qualifies
See what does and does not count as household goods on the consular certificate page, then set cover to the value.
-
Engage a customs broker
A licensed broker must clear your goods; we coordinate that for you.
-
Secure your moving date
Popular periods can fill quickly, particularly for coordinated cross-border capacity.
Plan your inventory
What Counts as Household Goods?
Household goods are the used furnishings and personal belongings that form part of your normal home. As an international shipping company for relocations, we transport furniture, appliances, kitchenware, clothing, books, decor, antiques, artwork and personal effects. Commercial cargo remains outside this service, so the shipment stays focused on household-use items.
Common household shipments include
Before the boxes are sealed
The certificate covers used goods, one time.
- Temporary and permanent residents, and returning nationals, may import used household goods duty-free, one time, on a consular certificate.
- New items and vehicles are treated differently.
- See the household-goods certificate requirements, and we help you meet them.
Experienced support matters
Why Use Professional Movers to Mexico?
Although Mexico shares a border with the US, the move still combines consular documentation, transportation and broker-led customs clearance. Experienced international movers help connect those stages and protect the shipment schedule.
-
Flexible across routes
Packing and loading are planned for the selected transport mode, whether your household moves overland or by ocean.
-
Fewer cross-border details to manage
We coordinate the logistics while you focus on residence, housing and arrival, which is where international residential movers are most useful.
-
Prepared for customs
Coordinating the consular certificate and licensed broker in advance helps avoid unnecessary delays at entry.
-
Specialty-item support
Difficult pieces are planned separately: pianos, large furniture and valuables can receive custom handling, including support from international piano movers.
Our moving history dates to 1948, alongside licensing and bonding (FMCSA / FMC, MC), FIDI and IAM membership, and BBB accreditation. People comparing the best international relocation company options often consider border experience, network reach and consistent coordination. Our overseas moving services support moves of different sizes from major US hubs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I budget to move to Mexico?
Your price is shaped by shipment volume, US origin, Mexican destination and whether the move goes by road, sea or air. We quote the actual shipment rather than a generic figure. Request a free international moving quote for a detailed comparison.
How fast can my goods reach Mexico?
Delivery timing varies by route and transport method. Road and air can be faster for suitable moves, while ocean shipping follows a longer schedule. We confirm an estimated window once the route is planned.
Will my household goods enter Mexico duty-free?
Usually, if you are a temporary or permanent resident or a returning national, you can use a consular household-goods certificate for used items. We tailor the inventory and paperwork to suit.
Is a customs broker really required?
Yes. Mexico requires a licensed customs broker to clear household goods, and we arrange that broker within your move.
What about shipping my car to Mexico?
Vehicles are handled apart from the household-goods certificate under their own rules; our international car shipping services prepare the documents and confirm what applies.
Which US cities do you ship from for Mexico?
We coordinate collection across the country. As international movers in the USA, we arrange pickups from San Diego, Houston, Los Angeles, Dallas, Phoenix and other cities before routing shipments into Mexico.
Do you offer a no-cost quote?
Yes. Give us the pickup city, destination and estimated volume. We will prepare an international moving quote that compares the suitable road, sea or air solution without obligation.
