Moving Abroad - Contact K International for a Full Container Shipping Quotation

If you have decided to move abroad, you probably have contacted a few moving companies to find out how much they will charge for handling your international relocation. It would be much cheaper, however, to arrange shipment of the goods themselves with an international shipping company, like K International Transport. 


You can load the boxes into a container yourself or get a moving company to speed things up, but let K International arrange Ocean Freight for savings!





If you need a full container for your things (20'std or 40'HC) container rental is always free, and we can quote you on Inland Trucking and Ocean Freight. We can arrange delivery of the container to your location. Once you have the container you can either load and unload the container yourself or use a local moving company to handle loading and unloading of the container.






Let moving companies handle what they do best, and leave the shipping to K International Transport! Please call us at (212) 267-6400, email us at inquiries@kinternational.com or skype us at kinternationalny.

Retiring Abroad - Let us ship your things internationally!


If you have finished with your time in the United States and want to return to your country or go to another for retirement K International can help you move your householdgoods and vehicles overseas. K International Transport can place a shipping container at your location so you can load your personal belongings into it for ocean transportation. If you are shipping a vehicle as well, there are a few different ways it can be accomplished. Most commonly the vehicle is loaded, blocked and braced into the container by a licensed warehouse first, and then you may fill the rest of the container with your personal effects. You may also put items inside a vehicle that is shipped by container (if you ship your vehicle Roll On / Roll Off service, only items pertaining to the car may be inside it when delivered to the port for loading.

Choose your dream retirement location, and let us help you get there!


Recently we helped ship a 40' container full of a person's possessions from their home in the Northeastern United States to Brazil. The two options for trucking are live load or drop and pick. A live load is when the trucker who brought the container to your location waits until loading is completed and then returns the container to the pier. This option is only economical when loading can be completed in a relatively short amount of time since most truckers only give 2 free hours for loading and then charge anywhere from $50 to $100 an hour after that. Our customer moving to Brazil decided on the second option, drop and pick, since they knew it would take quite a while to load all of their possessions into a 40’ container. Drop and pick usually costs around twice as much as live-load, since the trucker will have to make two separate round-trips to your location, but if you need a lot of time to load the container, it is still cheaper.

Using a trusted international shipping company like K International Transport to arrange the shipment of your household goods and furniture overseas will pay off in peace of mind. Please do not hesitate to contact us by email at inquiries@kinternational.com, phone at (212) 267-6400, or skype us at kinternationalny.

International Shipping Services and House Hunters International Present: Chalet Shopping in Switzerland

When looking for overseas car shipping service or international household, furniture and moving shipping services from the United States you already know K International offers the best service and rates!  So today to help you understand the various international car shipping services we offer, we present Pierre and Yvonne and their journey moving to Europe, specifically to the alpine country of Switzerland and their search for the perfect chalet.

Pierre was a Texas oil tycoon enjoying the life in his beloved Texas.  Pierre's fiance Yvonne was from France and met Pierre while climbing the Eiffel Tower.  While Yvonne enjoyed attending the rodeos and eating infamous Texas barbeque, she longed for the European lifestyle she left behind.  One of Yvonne's favorite pastimes was skiing in the mountains of Switzerland.  As a birthday present, Pierre decided to buy Yvonne a ski chalet in her favorite city in Switzerland.  Pierre also loved Switzerland so much he decided to transfer from his Texas office to Switzerland and make the big move with his fiance.

Pierre was a typical Texas gentleman who enjoyed his rodeo lifestyle. 
But after falling in love with his fiance Yvonne and Switzerland he decided to
make the big move from the USA to the Swiss alps.

Pierre contacted K International Transport to help him move his house and cars to Switzerland and a real estate agent in Switzerland to help him find the perfect chalet.  When Pierre went down his wish list of items he wanted in his new chalet he also wanted to make sure K International would be able to ship all his stuff when he moved to Switzerland.  Pierre knew he would need a house with a huge garage, lots of closet space and great scenery.

The list of items Pierre needed to ship for his move to Switzerland included:

-International motorcycle shipping service for their collection of his and her Harley Davidson motorcycles to Switzerland
-Overseas car shipping service to Switzerland for their Range Rover and classic Chevrolet Corvette 
-International container shipping service to Switzerland for all of their furniture, books, skis and clothing including Pierre and Yvonne's collection of over 500 cowboy boots and hats.

As one of the best international shipping companies in the USA shipping to Switzerland, Pierre knew he was in good hands.


Pierre and Yvonne needed ample closet space to fit their collection of cowboy boots and hats.

K International was able to provide Pierre with affordable international car shipping rates to Switzerland.  K International also assured Pierre their quote included the best classic car shipping rates available to Switzerland and their beloved cars and motorcycles were in the best of care.  K International also provided container shipping service to Geneva, Switzerland and were able to get the best furniture and container shipping rates to Switzerland available.

Pierre felt comfortable knowing K International would handle the shipping of his container of furniture, household items, cowboy boots and hats to Switzerland with care.  Over 5,000 miles later Pierre and Yvonne flew to Switzerland and met with their friendly real estate agent Lea.  The first chalet Lea showed them was a small cabin in a remote area of the Swiss alps. While it gave them tons of privacy it was much too small to fit their vast collection of cowboy boots and hats and the surrounding land was not included.  The cottage also did not have the 5 car garage Pierre wanted to fit their Range Rover, motorcycles and his beloved classic Chevrolet Corvette.
Pierre and Yvonne thought the first cabin they saw in the Swiss alps was charming,
but it didn't have enough space to fit their car, cowboy hat and cowboy boot collection.

The next chalet Lea showed them was located near a tourist resort area.  Pierre and Yvonne thought the chalet had beautiful features inside, but again this chalet did not have the large garage Pierre sought for his cars and motorcycles.  Pierre began to worry they would never find the chalet of their dreams.
The second chalet was in a ski resort area, it was picturesque but did not have the large garage Pierre needed.

Finally, Lea showed them a chalet that was in an area not too far from the main city center and was on five acres of land.  Pierre was excited and knew this was the chalet for them!  The 5 acres was plenty of room to build his dream garage to store his Harley Davidson's, Range Rover and Chevrolet Corvette.  The chalet also had enough room to build a large walk in closet to fit their collection of cowboy boots and hats.


Pierre and Yvonne were excited when they finally found the right chalet for them.

Pierre and Yvonne found their chalet right in time.  Their container with their household items and motorcycles safely arrived in Geneva.  They were happy they found the best car and international shipping company with service from the USA to Switzerland.  Pierre and Yvonne whipped out their skis for a run down the Swiss slopes.  K International's professional international shipping packaging kept their skis intact. 

Pierre and Yvonne enjoyed their new life on the Swiss alps thanks to the
professional international shipping services to Switzerland provided
by K International and the help of their real estate agent Lea.
