Overcoming hurdles — move to South America with Hartmann International
Just moving within the same country is complicated enough that it requires professionals who are familiar with all the challenges.
This is especially true if you only have a limited time frame in which to carry out the move. If an international move overseas is on the agenda, the list of tasks multiplies.
In addition to the usual removals issues such as transporting moving boxes and furniture, there also customs formalities, residence permits and taking out new insurance to focus on. Although a large part of the population in the major conurbations of highly developed countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Chile or Venezuela speaks English, Spanish and Portuguese language barriers will be the first hurdle.
It is advisable, especially in official matters, to organize a professional partner to help you with official procedures. Forget about the despachantes—people whose services are frequently used in Brazil to take care of official business for third parties. Hartmann International can offer you a one-stop, reliable all-round service for your relocation to South America.
Hartmann International—the expert for your relocation to South America
We will come to your home to get an idea of your current situation and to provide you with detailed, personal and reliable advice to get you off to a good start in South America.
When a date for your move has been set, we will provide you with moving boxes with a transparent labelling system. Since every move is unique—maybe you want to transport a work of art, your piano or an expensive Chinese vase—we will supply you with special overseas packaging materials. We can also organize transport insurance packages specially tailored to your needs to provide you with additional security for your shipment.
Our well-organized logistic processes enable us to carry out your removal door to door. We set up no stopping zones and use external lifts to bypass even narrow stairwells. If you wish, we can take care of packing your belongings, and any dismantling and unpacking at the destination.
By the way: We can also carefully take your fitted kitchen apart and prepare it for the long journey.
Our team carries out tasks that include organizing truck loading, booking and loading sea containers, arranging transport to the port of departure with subsequent container loading, and monitoring export clearance and sea freight. Once the cargo has reached the destination country, we handle the port and customs clearance according to the latest regulations as well as its delivery to the destination. In addition to container return, we offer (air-conditioned) storage and interim storage options as well as the disposal of your unwanted goods. If required, our specialists can take over any necessary re-assembly work in Argentina, Brazil, Chile or other South American destination.
