Moving Overseas from Southampton?

Why Choose 1st Move?

Are you looking for a professional and experienced international removals company who offers full safer packing services?

Our team have been helping ship personal effects and furniture from the UK for over 24 years. We strive to provide a stress free experience and exceptional communication for our customers from start to finish, and our packing procedures provide some of the best protection available for your goods during transit.

Safer Packing

Once collected, your belongings are carefully packed and arranged onto their own pallet(s). We then wrap the whole shipment in bubble wrap and high strength cardboard, before encasing the pallet(s) in our signature shrink-wrap packing. This final layer is heat treated to provide a tight seal, ensuring that once packed, your belongings cannot be individually handled. This means no mix-ups, fewer accidents and drastically reduced insurance claims for our customers.
