Establishing a timeline for your move is an important step. Take into consideration all family members and develop a travel plan. Often, preparation determines the success of the move. Atlas® International is ready to be your relocation partner. We help over 7,000 families go new places® each year.

An international relocation will require more steps than a domestic relocation. That’s why we’re here. When you work with Atlas, it is our responsibility to follow the proper international moving steps.

Your international movers will load your belongings into wooden shipping containers, move them to their port of departure, and then ship them by ocean or air to their new home.

All U.S. Agents charge by dollars, and all overseas agents charge by volume, so both are taken into consideration. Rates are based on what you pack/load in the shipping containers at pack/load origin. Every move we make is unique to the individual, so the total cost of your move will be dependent upon the origin, destination, shipment method, and container size.

Yes! Atlas® International offers a comprehensive set of protection plans designed specifically for your unique move. Our plans range from full-value protection at a minimal cost to limited coverage that is included with every international move. Once you’ve submitted a quote request and connected with your International Relocation Coordinator, they can help you decide which plan is best for you.

Your Atlas® International Relocation Coordinator (IRC) will provide tracking information and updates throughout the process.

Typically, the best time to move overseas is when you are ready! However, there are certain times of the year when demand is lower such as the fall and winter months. Consider where you are moving from and where you are moving to when deciding on a moving date or contact us to speak to an expert who can provide more information.
