Dallas international moving FAQs
Many companies offer global moving services, but they're not all the same. With the complexities that can come with an international move, it's essential to take time to evaluate your choices. Asking potential international moving companies the following questions in this FAQ section can help you compare international movers in Dallas.
Yes. Daryl Flood is fully licensed and insured. To protect yourself and your belongings, avoid companies that cannot provide proof of their licensing and insurance.
Also, check other credentials, such as making sure any company you're considering is accredited by the most respected international moving associations, such as Harmony Relocation Network, FIDI and the American Moving and Storage Association. It's also smart to check out online reviews from previous customers.
There are several variables that go into an estimate for an international move, including the actual volume of your household goods and the price of fuel. We do a full home survey prior to your international move to ensure we understand exactly what you will and won’t be bringing with you overseas. This is an enormous help for both you and us to understand how much moving will cost, and why.
When we send over your quote, it should include all discussed charges, and your move coordinator will keep you appraised throughout your move if you’d like to add any services, such as packing or storage. With any moving company, we always advise asking directly about any extra fees, or any numbers that could change. However, with Daryl Flood as long as the scope of your shipment doesn’t change, your quote will remain the same.
The types of items that an international moving company can or will ship may be determined by their own company policies, but they will also be affected by the laws in the country to which you're moving. Hazardous, flammable, or combustible items are just a few types that cannot be shipped, but there are others, such as plants or food items that may be prohibited.
Your move coordinator will work with you well in advance of your move to help you understand what can and cannot be shipped – this will help your items pass through customs easily and find their way shortly to your new home.
You should book your international move as early as possible. Keep in mind that international moving companies' busiest season is usually during the summer months, so you'll want to get on an international mover's schedule well before summer if that's your desired moving window. Each moving company may have its own requirements for booking ahead, so be sure to check with the companies you're considering.
This is an important question to ask any Dallas international movers you're considering. Even with the most thorough planning and the most careful handling and shipping services, issues can arise, so you want to make sure you're covered if they do.
As a moving company, we cannot sell you insurance. You’re given something called valuation coverage, which is weight based, and is $0.60 per pound of an item. The important thing to remember is that it is not a replacement cost for your item. There are extra levels of coverage you can purchase, and it’s important to discuss with your move coordinator what those options are so you can decide if extra valuation coverage or insurance is the right choice for your international move.
International moving companies may not be able to give you an exact date, but they should be able to give you a time frame for shipping and arrival. Factors that can affect your ultimate arrival date include your destination city and country and more, largely determined by the port your items have to come in through.
Moving companies have no insight or sway when it comes to how long your goods are held in customs, and while we give our best estimate due to current wait times, it can change quickly. If you’re moving during the busy summer months, you should anticipate waiting longer.
