International Moving

Short Banner Form (Don't Track This)

Relocating across the globe is a complex logistical undertaking that requires more than just transport; it requires an intricate understanding of global trade lanes, customs regulations, and specialized export packing. U.Santini Moving & Storage provides comprehensive international moving services, acting as your single point of contact from the initial survey in Brooklyn to the final delivery at your overseas residence.

As experienced international movers in Brooklyn, we have spent decades building a network of global partners and mastering the paperwork necessary to clear your shipment through foreign ports. We handle the heavy lifting of global logistics so you can focus on your new life abroad.

End-to-End International Moving Services

A successful move abroad is built on meticulous planning. Our international movers provide a structured process designed to mitigate the risks associated with long-distance ocean or air freight.

  • Customs Documentation & Compliance: Every country has a unique set of import laws and restricted items. We guide you through the preparation of bills of lading, inventory lists, and customs declaration forms to ensure your shipment avoids unnecessary delays or fines.
  • Export-Grade Packing: Standard moving boxes aren’t enough for the rigors of sea travel. We use moisture-resistant materials, heavy-duty wrapping, and custom wooden crating for high-value items to withstand environmental shifts and the rigors of global transport.
  • Air vs. Sea Freight Options: Depending on your timeline and volume, we offer flexible shipping methods. Whether you need an expedited air shipment for essentials or a cost-effective full-container load (FCL) for an entire household, we tailor the transit to your needs.
  • Global Port Coordination: We manage the hand-off to vetted local agents at your destination, ensuring that the same high standard of care you received in Brooklyn is maintained during the final unloading and setup in your new country.

With nearly a century of experience rooted in New York, U.Santini brings a level of institutional knowledge that few other companies can match. We treat your international relocation with the gravity it deserves, providing clear communication and professional oversight across every time zone.

Incredible moving company! Family owned for almost 100 years and you can't beat the service. We're proud to do business with this fellow NYC institution. Could NEVER be replaced by AI.

Amazing experience from start to finish. Really appreciated the communication and support from David, and then all the way to John and his team who helped with the move itself. Everyone was extremely friendly, super quick to reply and get the job done. We had stuff in our previous apartment and in storage room, and U. Santini team did a flawless job of getting everything we needed. They even did disassembly and assembly of our larger furniture which made it even less stressful on us. Pricing was fair and turned out to be lower than the original estimate which speaks to their trustworthiness as well as how quickly they were able to get the move done. Would highly recommend! Daniel

Moved with U. Santini from Bed-Stuy to South Slope, Brooklyn. David Menchini handled the estimate personally and the crew was great both days including careful wrapping, efficient load-in, and respectful in both buildings. Packed day one, moved day two, zero damage. Pricing was transparent and matched the estimate. Highly recommend.

Last week we moved from our home of 35 years. Most of the items in our 3-story townhouse were placed in storage but a few were moved to a smaller apartment. The move was complicated and emotionally difficult. U.Santini however made it as easy as possible. From our first contact with the sales representative, Charles, who gave us on-the-nose estimates for the two separate moves to the experience with the actual moving crew which was efficient, careful, and diligent everything went smoothly. Special shoutouts to the foreman, DeVonte (the Jalen Brunson of movers), and his hardworking team (Sterling, Kevin, Ivan, Gabino, Luis, and Dante) for their excellent work. We selected U. Santini, in part, because we had used them for our move 35 years ago into our home. We are pleased to report that the company has maintained its high standards and recommend U. Santini highly.

John and the crew did a fantastic job on very short notice. Would likely recommend USantini. They are a people first business and locally operated to Brooklyn

We had a great moving experience with the Santini team from Bushwick to Park Slope. The time-based quote worked great, and the team, Mario, Andres, Antony, and Kevin were super efficient, very careful with our belongings, and friendly. I would definitely use them again.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are open from Monday to Friday, 7:30 AM–5 PM, but feel free to contact us through our contact form anytime. We’ll get back to you ASAP.

Absolutely! We offer various types of insurance to protect your belongings, including a full replacement option. The cost depends on how much your things are worth and the deductible you choose.

It’s a good idea to book your moving company at least 8 weeks before your move. If you’re moving during the holidays or in the summer, it’s best to schedule it 12 weeks ahead. But if your move is between September and May, you can often book movers with just 2 weeks’ notice. The key is to secure your moving crew as soon as you have all the details about your move.

Weekdays, particularly Tuesday or Wednesday, are often the best days to schedule your move. These days typically see lower demand for moving services, meaning you might secure better rates and more flexible time slots. Additionally, traffic tends to be lighter during weekdays compared to weekends, which can help reduce travel time and stress. U.Santini is open weekdays from 7:30 am to 5 pm to best serve you.
