Cost of living and inflation are among the top reasons why Everett residents are interested in moving out of the US, according to U.S. report. On the other hand, families from foreign countries are attracted to Washington because of the tech-driven economy and tax structure.

International Moving FAQ

International relocations can cost as little as $2,000 or as much as $20,000, depending on the level of service you need. 

Things that can change the cost of your move may include:

  • Total travel distance
  • Customs procedures for your destination country
  • Weight of your belongings
  • Volume of your belongings
  • Shipping method (air, sea, land)
  • Level of insurance coverage
  • Additional services like packing

The first step toward understanding the cost of your move is getting a quote. Call our Everett office today at (800) 426-4780 to contact one of our international moving experts.

Movers generally need:

  • A detailed inventory of all shipped items 
  • Proof of ownership
  • A valid passport

Certain countries require additional documents, such as work visas, residence permits, or specific customs forms.

When you move with Lincoln Moving and Storage, a personal move coordinator will work with you to gather all of the paperwork you need and guide you through the specific rules and regulations for the country you are moving to.

Lincoln Moving & Storage has two main insurance options for international moves: Replacement Value and Valued Inventory.

Replacement Value: This coverage provides reimbursement at a rate of $8 per pound for items that are lost or damaged. However, any item worth $500 or more must be separately declared and assigned a specific value to qualify for full reimbursement if it is lost or damaged during the move.

Valued Inventory: You are required to list the value of every item being moved for it to be covered under the insurance plan. Items valued under $500, such as clothing and kitchenware, may be combined into a single group. With this coverage, you’ll receive reimbursement for the declared value of any individual item that is lost or damaged.

Depending on the mode of travel you select (ground, air, sea), your shipping and delivery time can change. 

As an example, the following list gives standard ocean freight shipping times for common international destinations:

  • Asia: 6-10 weeks
  • Australia: 5-7 weeks
  • Caribbean: 6-8 weeks
  • Europe: 5-9 weeks
  • Mexico & Canada: 2-4 weeks
  • South America: 6-9 weeks

Factors like customs clearance, weather, port congestion, and local transportation can also affect delivery times.

Yes, you can track your shipment. When you move with Lincoln Moving and Storage, you are assigned a personal move coordinator whom you can contact for updates on the shipping and delivery of your goods.
