FAQ Guide for household removals and furniture shipping

Below are answers to the most Frequently Asked Questions about overseas household removals and furniture shipping overseas. There is a lot to consider which is why we allocate you a Move Manager to guide you through the whole shipping process.

Why are PSS the best removals company for shipping your furniture and personal effects overseas?

PSS have over 40 years of experience, specialising in international removals and shipping personal effects to many countries including Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, UAE, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Africa, Europe and many more.

Over that time we have gained a reputation for being one of the UK’s best international removals companies.

We are members of the BAR Overseas Group (British Association of Removers), members of the FIDI Global Alliance, accredited to the highest international standards with FAIM, to name just a few of our credentials.

This means we not only operate to the highest standards but also use the best international shipping lines such as Maersk, Hapag Lloyd, ONE and MSC.

But in addition to that, we are members of the International Association of Movers, the Movers Trader Club, Euromovers and Demeco International. These exclusive memberships give us unrivalled buying power which enables us to pass savings on to our customers.

Shipping furniture overseas

Organising your furniture shipping

Moving furniture overseas with PSS is easy work; you only have to tell us that you are interested and decide which pieces of furniture you want to ship. We operate on a door-to-door basis, meaning all the work is handled by our seasoned furniture shippers.

After our initial contact, we will assign you a specified shipping co-ordinator who will take care of your move from beginning to end, from your pre-move survey right through to delivery and unloading your furniture at your new home.

We carry out a pre-move survey to assess the quantities of home furniture and goods that you want to send so that we can provide you with an accurate quote.

Since we understand the safe arrival of your goods, our teams expertly wrap and pack all furniture items on the day of your furniture shipping, using protected and industry approved 6 ply export blankets and complete an inventory.

We can load 90% of our full containers at the home, although this is sometimes limited due to the access at your home. If you are shipping a part-load, we take your items to our depot on a PSS truck and prep, pack and load furniture ready for shipping.

To eliminate any worry, we prefer to have 4 weeks’ notice before shipping furniture from the UK, but we understand this is not always possible. If you have an approximate moving day, we can set a provisional booking date that you can adjust accordingly.

Full or part load furniture removals

The quantity of household goods you are sending overseas will influence the shipping method you require, so we recommend that you have a FREE HOME SURVEY regardless if you are sending one small piece of furniture of a whole home load.

If you are sending just a few pieces of furniture or smaller items, you will only require our part-load service. A part-load container allows you to have your furniture sent within a shared shipping container and your costs will be based on the volume of this load.

Alternatively, for larger items of furniture in higher quantities, it might be more advantageous if you make use of our full-load container shipping. Your furniture will be loaded onto a 20ft or 40ft container, dedicated for your use only and you will pay one flat fee for your container. This is ideal for whole home loads or commercial premises.
