Packing up your worldly possessions and shipping them overseas is something that needs to be done with a removals company that has experience, knowledge, and a professional attention to detail if they are to arrive at your new home overseas in the condition they are in before they are packed ready to go.
So, making sure you choose a company proficient in providing overseas removals services should be your top priority when selecting the company you will entrust this process too. Why take a risk?
In this article, and for your peace of mind, we will give you some useful pointers to help you make that choice.
You will find many companies advertising and promoting themselves as an international removal company. However, some are not. But with good research you can make sure the one you use is. Greens removals is one of those companies and we have the credentials that you should insist upon when considering which companies you approach to get quotes for your move.
Below is information on hour accreditations and our membership of the professional bodies governing our industry. If you use these as a guideline when looking at who you should use it will help you make your decision and choose wisely.
British association of removers (BAR), and BAR Overseas Group
The British Association of Remover's is the governing body in the UK for the removals industry. Greens removal's limited is a long-standing member of this association. The criteria for membership is strict and only companies that comply are permitted membership. Using a BAR member for your removal has many benefits over non-BAR companies. Further details can be found here www.bar.co.uk
Within the BAR there are number of companies that are also members of the BAR Overseas Group. These companies our recognised as specialists in providing international removals services. Green's removal's is a member of this BAR subgroup and we would recommend that whoever you ultimately choose for your removal they are a member of The BAR Overseas Group.
MTC (Movers Trading Club)
The MTC is a professional removals industry body that negotiates ocean freight rates with shipping lines to get the best rates and reliable shipping services for its members. Its members allow the MTC to use their combined volume of shipping containers to negotiate preferential rates for shipping overseas with the shipping lines and this means you get the very best shipping price and service from your overseas removals company.
IAM (International Association of Movers)
Greens is also a proud member of the International Association of Movers. This is a global association of like-minded, expert, professional international removals companies. Again, membership is subject to strict criteria which only allows companies into membership who do the job properly for their clients. Be sure to use a company which has IAM membership. Greens work closely with members of IAM around the world and we have carefully selected the best of them to provide us, and you, with services in your destination country. They will help guide you through and manage the Customs clearance and importation of your belongings. Once your shipment is cleared and ready for delivery they will deliver to your new home and will do so with the same care and attention to detail that Greens will have displayed to you at the start of the move in the UK.
