International moving with one point of contact, door to door

All relocations involve details and checklists, but an overseas move comes with even more requirements. Apollo, as an Allied Van Lines agent, gives you a local consultant here in New Castle and a global network on the other end.

Moving abroad means export paperwork, customs regulations, ocean or air freight, and coordination across time zones. Fortunately, Allied Van Lines is an international moving company whose global moving services are among the most established in the industry — and Apollo Moving & Storage is your local doorway into that network. You deal with one consultant here in Western Pennsylvania while Allied's international specialists and destination partners handle the rest.

What's included in an international move

  • Pre-move consultation and survey to determine volume, shipping method and timeline
  • Export packing and crating designed for ocean containers and air freight
  • Customs documentation guidance so your paperwork is complete before your shipment leaves
  • Ocean (FCL or LCL) or air freight depending on your budget and timing
  • Shipment tracking from pickup through delivery
  • Destination services through Allied's international partners: customs clearance, delivery, unpacking and debris removal
  • International storage options at origin or destination

Moving abroad from Pennsylvania or Ohio

We help individuals, families, students, retirees and corporate transferees move from Pittsburgh, New Castle, Butler, Erie, Youngstown and the surrounding region to Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, Asia, Latin America and beyond. We also coordinate inbound international moves for people relocating to Western Pennsylvania.

Planning tip: International shipments take longer than domestic ones, and customs rules vary by country. Contact us as early as possible — ideally two to three months before your move — so we can build a realistic timeline.

How can I move abroad?

Take a look at where you stand: you've weighed the advantages and disadvantages of living and working abroad, you've done your research, and you've found a reputable company that can take you where you want to go. Is anything still holding you back? If it's only nerves, that's normal — big decisions always bring some. If all signs point forward, make the decision, and let Apollo and Allied handle the logistics.

Every type of move, one network

Whether you're moving locally, across the country or across an ocean, you can count on Apollo and Allied Van Lines to move your household or business. Explore our residential, corporate, local and interstate moving services.

FAQ

International Moving questions, answered

How long does an international move take?
It depends on destination, shipping method and customs processing. Ocean freight generally takes weeks; air freight is faster but better suited to smaller shipments. Your consultant will give you a realistic estimate for your route.
Do you handle customs?
We guide you through the documentation and Allied's destination partners handle clearance. You'll know exactly what forms and identification are required for your destination country.
Can I ship my car overseas?
In many cases yes, subject to the destination country's import rules. Ask your consultant early, as vehicle exports require additional paperwork.
What can't be shipped internationally?
Rules vary by country, but perishables, plants, hazardous materials, and certain electronics or alcohol are commonly restricted. We'll review your inventory with you.
