Carri Mangelli - Farmers Insurance

After a long search for the right moving company I decided to use Southern Winds International. My inquiry to this Company was promptly responded by Donovan. I was explicitly informed about prices and time of delivery. The price compared to other movers was competitive. Donovan was patiently helpful with all questions about custom and other forms. The US-mover picked up our 48 boxes on time. The English mover informed us about the arrival of the boxes and when they would be forwarded to Portugal. Whenever we had an additional question, we could turn to Donovan and were informed promptly. The boxes were delivered to our house in Portugal exactly on time. Each one of the 48 boxes looked …

It is a pleasure to write and thank you for the excellent service you have provided my husband and I in our recent packing and moving experience to Japan. While there were a number of delivery services that we considered, we were impressed from the beginning by your friendliness and prompt attention to our concerns.

Sue Plumb Takamoto - Director of Human Resources - Life Ministries

In December of last year we moved from San Diego to Perth Australia using Southern Winds. The cost was roughly $6500 for a 20ft container. It took about four weeks for the shipment to arrive and clear customs. We were very pleased with promptness, professionalism and price of the Southern Winds company.

Dear Michael and all, Just want to circle back and let you know that all of our stuff was delivered yesterday to our house in France. Very timely! Thank you for all your help in making this complicated transition to Europe a little bit less stressful. The packing company you used was very professional and I have recommended you and your company to Sotheby’s International (they were the ones who sold our home) in case they have other people crossing the pond. Thanks again!!

Dear Ed, We wanted to “close the loop” with you on our recent relocation from CA to Maui. After all the horror stories we heard and read about sleazy moving companies and scams and price gauging, and broken or lost items, etc, we are so pleased to report that our move went off beautifully. We had a terrific crew of movers at both ends – Excel Moving in CA and then Royal Hawaiian here in Maui. Everyone was friendly, efficient, helpful, pleasant, respectful of our “stuff” and all around fabulous. We are so glad we found you folks and that you have reliable vendors under your wing. Plus, your patience with us and our bzillion questions along the way helped tremendously. We really wanted …
