Personal Service

An international move – we understand that you don’t do that every day. Fortunately we do. To support you optimally – from the first meeting until well after your move – we work with a personal Move Manager. The Move Manager takes care of everything for you during and around your move. He will keep you informed of the status of your move and is your permanent point of contact. This way you always know who to turn to with your questions and requests. It is our personal approach that makes you feel at home.

High Standards

As a family business, we strive for the highest possible customer satisfaction. That is why we work according to high standards. For example, we always pack your belongings within the agreed time and we make boxes available for things that you hold dear and would like to pack yourself. By working with our own people and cars, we guarantee that your belongings are packed, handled and transported with care. And outside the European continent, we work with trusted partners who meet the same high standards as we do. Everything to make your international move as comfortable as possible.

Perfect Solutions

As a specialist in international removals, safety and security are our top priority. What we also find important? That we deliver perfect solutions to our customers. That is why we provide full-service removals – exactly to your liking, anywhere in the world. Also for last minute requests or “mission impossibles” applies: we bring your belongings safely to their destination. We are flexible and always think in solutions. Schmidt Global Relocations is at your service.

How does it work?

From the moment you reach out to us, your international relocation is handled with precision and transparency. We begin by collecting the details of your move -origin, destination, inventory, and timing – and arrange a detailed assessment. Next, our team crafts a bespoke relocation plan: choosing the most efficient routing, scheduling, and customs strategy. When packing day arrives, we carefully crated and protected your household goods, then load them for transit. Throughout transit and customs, we manage all logistics, documentation, and clearances. Finally, once your shipment arrives, we deliver it to your door, unpack, and set up your home; leaving nothing behind but a smooth new beginning.
