@YourLocklyn Congratulations to you both — lovely news! If he's shipping any of his things over, one Australia-specific tip: biosecurity is strict, so boots, bikes and outdoor gear need a really good clean before they go, and keep a first-weeks bag with him while the rest is in transit.
Shipping to Australia or New Zealand? Biosecurity is strict: outdoor gear, bikes, boots, and garden tools must be spotless or they'll be flagged for inspection at your expense. Clean everything before it goes in the container.

@kludotcom Congrats, big week! Two things people wish they'd known: apply for Transfer of Residence (ToR1) relief before your goods ship so they clear UK customs smoothly, and pack a proper first-weeks bag, since sea freight takes weeks, not days. The rest is the fun part. Good luck!
What not to ship overseas: anything with a US plug that isn't dual-voltage, perishables, and furniture that's cheaper to replace than to freight. Ship the things that make the new place home.
@jilljeffre57398 Ha, no — green cards are handled by USCIS, not movers. We handle the other half: shipping your household goods door to door once the visa side is sorted.

Seeing this a lot from the moving side too. One thing that helps: moving back doesn't have to mean buying on day one. Many families ship their household goods, park them in storage, and rent for a few months first. We give 30 days free storage for exactly that reason. https://t.co/86ZUYtv4zA
@nitro_idiot Congrats on the move and the new office! If any of your household goods still need to come over, or you need storage while you find a place, we handle international moves into the US: https://t.co/68pv2bD8o4 · 805-209-1426
@maryhyphenjane Rotterdam to LA is a great route once the visa side sorts itself out. When you're ready for the moving part, we do Europe to LA door to door, with a free video survey and 30 days of free storage while you find a place. https://t.co/68pv2bD8o4 · 805-209-1426
@HoneybadgerFan4@boardyai@hf0 Love that goal. California's worth it. When the visa side comes together, plan the move 3–4 months out: Germany to the West Coast by sea runs roughly 6–8 weeks. Rooting for you!

@shea67927984 Ha, if it ever goes from joke to plan, Perth to the US West Coast is a well-worn sea freight route. Tesla and the doggo can come too 🐶🚗

@g48in If you do make the jump, the logistics are simpler than they look: a video survey, a shared container from France, and a few weeks of storage while you find an apartment. Good luck with the decision!

@sinsaywhat@PlanetFitness Congrats on the move to Florida! If you're shipping from the islands, ask movers about customs paperwork for household goods early. It's the step that tends to hold things up. Happy to answer questions.

@kludotcom One week out, the main thing: decide what goes by air (essentials) and what goes by sea (everything else, arrives in ~6–8 weeks). Rent furnished for the first month and you won't miss your stuff. Enjoy London!

@Didshesaythat10 Exciting move! From the Netherlands, a shared or 20ft container is usually the sweet spot for a family. Get a video survey so the quote is real, and ask about storage on arrival. Sunset International includes 30 days free.

@RasReload@naomimorris1980 If the US move happens, ask your employer what the relo package covers for shipping household goods. A lot of people find a 20ft container is cheaper than replacing furniture. Happy to share a free video-survey estimate if useful.
@JoeBarnes1030@grok Get 3 quotes, each based on a survey (video is fine) rather than a guess. Ask for door-to-door sea freight and who handles Japan customs. Sunset International does free video surveys if you want one of the quotes from us.
@TTrimoreau From the moving side: the visa is the hard part and the move is the easy part. Sea freight plus a few weeks of storage while you find a place makes landing in the US a lot smoother. Good luck with the decision!
