1st Move International Limited Bewertungen 

Thanks for ur services the staff is in my country, I tried some other companies, but thank god that I chose u ,
U was also very helpful.
I thank you again .

Fantastic the UK side, informed, picked up on schedule and kept me informed in terms of shipment and tracking.
Unfortunately the US side was not the case. I ended up helping the lone driver unpack the pallet and individually remove the boxes onto my driveway, Not in 1st moves direct control as it was a local freight company, but something to be wary of.
That said I would highly recommend 1st Move and did. a 1st class job UK side.

Moving from the UK to Durban in South Africa - 8 cubit meters of household goods.

From the initial quotation, the insurance, picking up our packed boxes, wrapping our goods and shipping to South Africa, to maintaining contact with the overseas agent for onward delivery to our final destination address, the service provided was excellent. There were a ton of hiccups from us with regards to timing but they provided the necessary assurance and service. A little more expensive than some of the other companies that do not wrap your boxes together, but definitely worth it. Would use them again without hesitation.

Second time I've used this company; if anything, it was even smoother than the first time (which itself was an entirely satisfactory experience).

Service does everything it says on the tin. Would recommend.

Thank you for your professional handling of my shipment, with no damage to the items, and appreciate especially that you have made sure to include all details needed for the move, and guidance in every step of the process.

I would recommend this company for any overseas move so that anyone can have piece of mind when looking for an international shipping company.

While there were endless super detailed instructions etc I needed more of a human to human interaction, so had to ask for it, as it was easier to walk a through things with someone on the phone.

In spite of a lot of information a couple of things were still missed, e.g. that I only have 3 days of free storage once good arrive to the port of destination. Would be useful to know in advance what to expect.

My shipment was delayed by a few days and before I chased no one even knew where it was.

Overall I am satisfied with the shipping etc.
But not with the UK office personal approach as would love involvement from the company side as it should not be just sending standardized info to everyone.

With the outset of covid and my belongings in storage in the UK and myself already located in the US.
i found 1st move international very professional and informative although it took me three years to finally be reunited the process was made easy and felt that i was looked after.
would definitely recommend the company and any associates connected.

We recently moved to Cyprus from the UK. Despite the fact that there was a delay due to the our moving load having to go on another ship (no fault of 1st Move) we received great customer service and our boxes and items were so safely wrapped and stored that they looked the same as when they were picked up. We were so pleased with the professionalism, communication and care they showed for both us and our items that I would have given 10stars if possible.

Small hiccups aside they made our move so stress less and breezy and we really appreciated them for that.
Would highly recommend and use again

Excellent service door to door. I am very happy with the service provided

A great company. I had items shipped to me from the UK to Canada. I must say I was very impressed with 1st Move International from start to finish. This company deserves 5 stars. My items were from my mother's estate and very meaningful to me. They were there for any questions I had. They kept me informed throughout and helped with all the necessary paperwork. Everything was packed carefully and despite having many fragile items, nothing got broken. I would definitely recommend this company for shipping your items overseas.

After a few weeks of research we chose 1st Move (who were not the cheapest) but appeared to offer everything we required. I read some reviews which were both good and bad. (The bad made me wonder if we’d chose the right company to move our belongings) I can honestly say that whenever I had a query/question Tessa answered immediately. All staff that I had contact with were above and beyond helpful. We couldn’t fault the professionalism of the staff, even those that came to the house under Covid times.
We packed the majority of items ourselves and left anything of value that required insuring to 1st move.
Upon receiving our freight in Austin TX it was well packed, well sealed. Not a drop of moisture was visible anywhere. No items were damaged.
The US delivery company were indeed 1 man, so expect when it states curb side drop off, that’s exactly what you get unless there is an option to get them to unload within your property.
The only niggles I have is the small print really requires reading by everyone at the start of the process and familiarise yourself several weeks later, 4-6 week delivery was quoted, but that was a little on the optimistic side. I guess with all the world issues currently, it took 9 weeks door to door (but Covid is the new normal now and so this should always be factored in)
Watch out for little hidden charges at the destination delivery. Further taxes to pay. (Less than $100 but just a reminder that it’s in the small print)
Overall very satisfied and would recommend 1st Move to anyone and I’d certainly use them again if required.

I can assure you that if you choose 1st move you have chosen an unbeatable service
Reliable and efficient

The team at 1st move were outstanding! Great communication and really helpful throughout. Thank you for making process so easy!

Brilliant service, would recommend

The people I was in touch with were extremely responsive and polite.
The material sent by email was clear and simple.
The price was slightly on the upper range of my prediction.
The agent in the target country was helpful and creative.
The cargo came in as promised, very well packed and without any damage.
Thank you.

My items were collected and packed on 23 Sept and it is now 20 Nov and we have still not received them. The communication with the local Miami shippers has been appalling. Patrick from the Long Island Office has been helpful but we then Got extra costs by the New Jersey team. Even in these extraordinary times I would hope there may be a smoother correspondence from collection to delivery

1st Move has cost us an absolute fortune and our belongings still haven't arrived! We were quoted £1,500 but charged £3,700 after collection despite packing less than we originally listed (and none of that was even furniture just toys and a few clothes/personal items!) We're still paying 'additional charges' for mandatory quarantine and no set date for delivery given. I've just received yet another email to say that they'll let us know if there are any other charges after paying out another £160 for mandatory quarantine because it wasn't covered in the £3,700!!

Really disappointed with the total lack of cost transparency and communication.

I hope our things arrive in perfect condition after all this!

The guys at first move did an excellent job of getting various parts and components together and well packed for my car Restoration in Australia, from initially talking to Tom in sales and then Tessa and Mike, they were really helpful in getting it sorted out, some items were not delivered and Tessa tracked them down to the next door premises!
Also thanks to Dave in the warehouse.
I have had two other shipments from UK to Australia with 1st move and would highly recommend them.

Absolutely smashing experience end to end. Bespoke and curated. I've worked globally for a decade across the globe and have found the 1st Move International to be the best experience hands down.

Really happy with the level of service. The entire process was smooth, always on hand to answer questions. Couldn’t fault them!
