What Are Our Customers From Canberra Saying?
What Do We Offer?
We strive to provide everything you could need during your international move. This includes guidance and advice, and handling paperwork and planning, as well as everything involved in the physical elements of the move. With Allied, your relocation will be the full package, giving you time to soak up your last days in Canberra, whether that’s visiting one of the capital’s museums or galleries, or wining and dining al fresco in one of the region's many wineries.
Tailored International Moving Services
With the help of your personal moving consultant, you can plan out each part of the process, taking advantage of any additional moving services that will make your experience even smoother. Your needs and preferences will be held in the highest regard, and any queries you have can be directed to your consultant.
Storage
Moving can be an overwhelming process with a lot of big decisions, and choosing what to take with you can be stressful. To alleviate some of this, you can opt to leave some items in secure storage. This will give you time to decide what you need at your new home, and ship these at a later date, then sell or dispose of anything else. With long term storage and short term storage options available, this is a decision that you can take your time with.
Packing
Our Canberra removalist team will pack up your belongings using the best materials, ensuring they are boxed up safely for transport overseas. While the team does this, you can say goodbye to friends, wander through Cockington Green Gardens, take the kids to the zoo, or catch a final glimpse over the city at Mount Ainslie Lookout.
Moving Insurance
Any move, especially overseas, involves some level of risk, particularly to fragile items. Our Canberra removalist team will take every precaution they can to protect your belongings in transit, but taking out moving insurance can give you some extra peace-of-mind. This can cover an array of potential issues should they arise, and is another box you can check off the list with just the help of your moving consultant.
Vehicle Transport
Thanks to our vehicle transportation service, you may even be able to take your motor overseas with you. The entry requirements and certifications needed for vehicles vary from country to country, but we can help you to work through the process of transporting your car internationally.
Pet Transport
From walks in Canberra’s National Botanic Gardens to international parklands and beaches, your pet can also get a stamp added to their passport. When it comes to pet relocation, our animal experts
can help with documentation and logistics, as well ensuring your furry friend has as low-stress an overseas move as possible.
Your International Canberra Move Made Easy
Your international move from Canberra may be a bit of a tense time; that’s why we’ll take you through the process step-by-step so you know exactly what’s happening at all times. With us taking care of this, all you need to do is focus on enjoying your final days in Canberra, and your first ones in your new home.
1. First Steps
Our Canberra removalist team will take it from the top, starting off with a property inspection to see what’s needed for your move. Then, you’ll be paired with your personal moving consultant, who will begin to work through the details with you.
2. Perfect Timing
International moves take time, and vary greatly based on your destination. We recommend anticipating anywhere from a four to a twelve week window between your first call to us and your move being underway.
3. Protect and Pack
Your belongings will be handled with care, and wrapped up appropriately for the journey. We will also take care of your current home, protecting vulnerable areas from bumps and scratches during the packing process.
4. Fully Loaded
Even the way we load up your belongings is planned strategically. The things you’ll need the most in your new home will be the last ones to be packed and loaded. This means that you can use them up until the last minute, and will be able to get to them when they arrive at your destination.
5. Moving in
Our full-service experience means that we’ll see you through to the completion of your move. This means helping you to unload, unpack, and get set up in your new home, helping you to settle in sooner.
6. Finishing Touches
To add to your overall moving experience and settling in process, we can connect you with local service providers to help with everything from photo hanging to setting up garden furniture, and professional cleaning services.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Does Allied offer professional international moving services?
Whether you’re relocating overseas from Canberra, anywhere in Australia, or from any of the 40 countries in which we operate, we offer professional moving services. Our teams all over the world are trained to the highest standards, covering everything from packing and loading to documentation, Occupational Health & Safety, insurance, and more. We’re unrivalled in local, interstate moves to and from Canberra, and international moves alike.
How will Allied move my belongings overseas from Canberra?
There are two main methods of transporting belongings internationally; air freight and sea freight. Air freight can be quite expensive, so is usually reserved for a few must-have items that you’ll want as soon as you touch down. For the rest of your belongings, sea freight will probably be the best option. If you have a lot of bigger items like furniture to move, you can opt to fill a container yourself. For smaller moves, using space in a shared container is a good way to save some extra cash, but will take longer to arrive than a full container due to the extra processing times.
Can I move fragile items internationally from Canberra with Allied?
Yes! Our team can move whatever you want from Canberra to your new home. We use a selection of moving boxes and cartons, so everything has a safe space, as well as specialised packing materials to help protect fragile from damage. We also recommend taking out moving insurance, especially for fragile and valuable items.
When should I contact a moving company when relocating overseas from Canberra?
There are a lot of factors that will influence the timing of a move, even more so with an international relocation. The distance between Canberra and your destination, how much you plan on taking with you, and how you want to ship it, all need to be taken into consideration. At Allied, we recommend getting in touch as soon as your move is on the horizon, so we can get organised. International moves can take between four and twelve weeks from your first call to having your belongings all packed up, so the sooner you get in touch, the sooner we can start planning around your needs.
Does Allied facilitate corporate and business relocations from Canberra as well as personal?
Allied handles all types of international moves; personal, business, and corporate. Our teams are trained across the board, and have what it takes to facilitate all moves, whatever challenges they may bring. Our business relocations cover all aspects of the move, including project management, I.T. systems relocation, e-waste, and more. We can also take care of employees and their families during corporate relocations.
