Reputable Moving Companies
« on: February 17, 2014, 08:50:37 PM »
Hello -

Does anyone have a list of reputable U.S moving companies?  I can moving from Chicago to London in April and needed to get several quotes from International shipping companies.

Additionally, assume we ship by sea - does anyone have insight into how many weeks it takes door to door?

I'm using upakweship, they actually just picked my stuff up on Wednesday. So far so good. They have a lot of options and prices are reasonable. The staff are also really nice and helpful throughout the process.

I'm likely going to be using excess baggage. I'm just starting the process though so I can't speak to how good they are going to be yet. But they were recommended to me by Cardiff Uni.

I just used Rainier and so far no complaints, they actually beat UPAKWESHIP's quotes and they packed all my items for me. Made my life easier.. I posted my experience about this in this section of the forum.. Best of luck to you!
