The duration of a move to Melbourne depends on several factors, including the volume of your shipment, the level of service and the chosen transport method.
Most international moves to Australia are carried out by sea freight. Depending on whether you choose a full container or a shared shipment (groupage), transit times generally fall between 8 and 14 weeks door-to-door. Air freight offers a faster alternative, although at a higher cost.
It is also important to consider Australian customs and quarantine procedures. These are a standard part of the process and may affect the overall timeline. Your Move Manager will guide you through each step and provide a clear expectation based on your situation
The cost of moving to Melbourne is always based on your personal situation. Key factors include the size of your shipment, the transport method and the period in which you plan your move.
Sea freight is the most common option, with a choice between a dedicated container or a shared container (groupage).
