For individuals and families, a move may involve furniture, home furnishings, personal belongings and everything that makes up everyday life. Organising a move properly means considering not only transport, but also access to the properties, available space and timings.

Container shipping: a solution for long-distance moves
Containers are one of the most widely used options for international sea freight, making it possible to move large quantities of goods between ports in different countries.
For an overseas move, the shipping method depends mainly on the volume and nature of the items being moved, as well as the customer’s requirements. Depending on your needs, options may include a dedicated container or, where available and suitable for the destination, shared container space.
Preparing your belongings is particularly important. Furniture, furnishings and personal items travelling long distances need to be carefully assessed in terms of packing, protection and handling requirements.
T. & T. Traslochi takes these factors into account when organising shipments, with the aim of finding the right transport solution for the items being moved.๏ปฟ
