What Our Customers Say About Us
Hi Ed, Well, we finally closed on the house and iMove delivered our 295 packages on Friday. We have now unwrapped everything (and have a metric “boat”load of brown paper to recycle!) and unpacked many of the boxes, including as far as we can tell, all of the fragile items. Guess what? ZERO damage, ZERO loss. Absolutely incredible. We’re totally blown away. Everything was really meticulously and intelligently packed and clearly was handled carefully in transit (includes iMove’s warehousing for 5 months). I just wanted to send this to say a huge thank you, and I’ll send you a more formal letter of appreciation as soon as we get over the next week or so which will involve re-flooring the… Read more

I just wanted to let you know that I used Southern Winds International to move from NYC to Manchester, UK based on your site, and they were fantastic! Not only was the crew really nice, but so were the ‘office’ people in California, responding to email within the hour. My belongings were picked up, and delivered without a hitch and everything arrived in the condition they left the US. All in all, I really recommend them for all of your moving needs. They also have the most competitive prices of the market (I’ve looked!).

Hi We are moving from SF Bay area to Izmir, Turkey… We had never done this before, and needless to say, were worried about shipping. I contacted many many companies, and received many quotes. Some were very low (beware!) and some were very high, and then I did some research and came to this excellent website! I contacted Southern Winds, specifically Michael Gilbert, and he gave us a middle of the road quote. Going on the good reviews from this site, I decided to trust them and gave them the deal. Mr. Gilbert was very courteous, very helpful with all the repeated questions by me, then again with my husband, and never got frustrated. He did not send anyone, however, to see the shipment … Read more
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 Donovan, I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for all the effort you put in since October 2013 to make every last detail of my move go so smoothly. You were always so patient with all my questions. And you were always kind, no matter how stressed out I was! Thank you for that, and being so calm. I’m almost sorry that the move is over 🙂 I will look forward to settling here for now and you can be sure that when I move back, I will call you. Best wishes for the rest of 2014! Many Thanks

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 … Read more

We used Southern Winds International to move about 2000 lbs of goods from Seattle to Melbourne, Australia and everything went very smoothly and all of our goods arrived with no damage to anything. We highly recommend this company. Michael Gilbert was our Southern Winds International contact and was very responsive to all my questions both prior to and after the packing up of our goods. The local agent in Seattle (Tacoma) was Lincoln Moving and Storage and in Australia it was Transglobal Shipping and Storage. Both local agents also provided excellent service. In addition to Southern Winds, we obtained quotes from Rainier and Stevens. Rainier gave us a quote for shipment of 10,000 lbs of… Read more
