The Process of International Removals from Lowestoft

We all know how stressful moving home can be, but the process becomes even more complex if you are relocating overseas. With an ever-growing list of things to do and a house full of belongings to ship safely across the world, you may find yourself in need of a helping hand from a team of professionals. Hadley and Ottaway can help your big move run smoothly from beginning to end and can help you to feel confident that your furniture and valuables are in safe hands thanks to our removals Lowestoft specialists.

To enable you to settle into your new home as quickly as possible, we have developed our international removals service to provide the fast and reliable shipping that you require. The process of moving home begins with packing, but this can be a time-consuming procedure. This is why we can offer a comprehensive packing service to ensure that all items are packed securely. Our team are fully trained in a range of effective packing methods which will ensure that even the most valuable or bulky items will reach their destination safely.

The safest and most cost-effective way to get your shipment moving quickly and efficiently is to have your belongings carefully packed into lined steel containers, before being shipped to a local port where they will be received by an approved local agent.

If you are emptying your current property but won’t be completing your move for a few weeks, you can take advantage of our storage solutions to keep your belongings secure. Our warehouse features storage bays which can accommodate a range of items, or alternatively we can pack your items into a purpose-built secure container which will be carefully put into storage.

With over eighty years of experience as the leading local firm of international removals Lowestoft specialists, Hadley and Ottaway can provide the comprehensive service and unrivalled expertise that you require to help your move run smoothly. When you are relocating overseas, make our experienced team your first port of call.
