Domestic and International Moving Services
A coordinated move, from first plan to final delivery.
Whether moving an employee, a family or an office, EMS coordinates domestic and international moving solutions around the needs of each assignment. From initial planning and packing to transportation, customs formalities, delivery and storage, clients benefit from one point of coordination and clearer visibility throughout the move.
Plan your moveA successful move depends on more than transportation
Every move brings together people, possessions, documentation, suppliers and deadlines. International shipments add customs requirements and cross-border coordination, while office moves must protect business continuity. Without a clear plan and accountable oversight, delays or communication gaps can create unnecessary disruption for employees, families and organizations.
What the service can include
Moving support is tailored to the origin, destination, shipment and agreed service level. It may include:
Move assessment and planning
Review the shipment, locations, timing, access requirements and customer priorities to build the move plan.
Pre-move survey
Coordinate an assessment of the items to be moved and the operational requirements at origin and destination.
Professional packing
Arrange appropriate packing, inventories and preparation for domestic or international transportation.
Transportation coordination
Manage the agreed road, sea or air transport solution and the relevant provider hand-offs.

EMS provides one point of coordination across the moving journey, connecting origin and destination activities with the wider relocation timeline. We combine structured move management with local provider coordination, helping HR teams, RMCs and customers understand what happens next and who is responsible. Because moving often runs alongside immigration, housing and assignment planning, our integrated approach helps reduce disconnected hand-offs and unnecessary disruption.
