When moving to a different country, it's most convenient to hire a removals company that specializes on international removals. Such company would be adept in all rules and regulations about the shipment of your things and they will even do all the paperwork for you.
As for the packing, it would be better if you let the international removals company handle it. They are more experienced in packing for long trips so they will surely pack it properly. They would make sure that everything is well-padded and well-protected. Of course, insurance is also important always.
To save money, you can also put most of your things in storage. You could even save if you sell old appliances instead of shipping them. With the money you get and the savings from shipping, you can buy new appliances to replace the old ones.
Shipping vehicles also cost money. Aside from that, it also has many restrictions. To save money and to save yourself the hassle, you can instead sell it and buy a new one once you get to your new place.
Of course, you also have to make sure that all your personal documents are complete. You should have already secured a visa. Some international removals companies can also help you with this so hiring one really makes things easier for you.
