Natalie Imbruglia - Recording Artist

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

I had a fantastic experience with Southern Winds for our move from Sacramento, CA to Canberra, Australia. We shipped a 20′ container and much of it was filled with my husband’s construction tools. Michael Gilbert at Southern Winds was GREAT, as was George Cooper, our contact at Aus Van Lines here. Our container was delivered yesterday and everything is fine! The communication we received from everyone was very good, and we had no problems with the customs/quarantine end of things. (We had to have 2 items steam cleaned, but all of this was clearly explained to us). Our price was good too. We are very happy we chose Southern Winds!!

When we got quotes for our move . . . Stevens was the highest. We got quotes from Rainier and Southern Winds. Southern Winds was the least expensive but also had the best customer service from the sales office by a long shot. Rainier’s local agent was very good, I have to say, and if we had gotten more responsive treatment from the sales office, I might have gone with them. I don’t think price alone is a reason to choose one company over the other, but for us the cheapest also offered the best customer service and we felt comfortable with the origin and destination agents. In the end Southern Winds did a great job for us.

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.

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 …
