International Move Management

Household goods, customs documents, specialist items and delivery coordinated through one shipment plan.

Delivered output
Survey, quotation, shipment plan and delivery report
Scope position
Confirmed before delivery begins
Decision contextThe shipment is a document route before it is a physical one.

Volume, handling requirements, declared goods, customs documents, carrier capacity and delivery conditions all shape the shipment route. IKAN coordinates the agreed mover, records and handoffs around one plan.

  • Carrier route
  • Customs documents and timing

02 / What happens

The working sequence.

Live facts decide timing. This is an operating sequence, not a duration promise.
  1. 01

    Survey & plan

    A pre-move survey sets volumes, timelines and the customs strategy before a single box is packed.

  2. 02

    Pack & ship

    Coordinated packing crews, export-grade materials and door-to-door coordination across air and sea.

  3. 03

    Clear & deliver

    Packing lists, customs forms, valuation records and bills of lading are reviewed and coordinated through clearance and delivery.

03 / Included

The shipment starts with its paperwork.

The exact format follows the signed programme and live move.

04 / Boundaries

Carriers, customs and conditions shape the route.

    A promise of customs clearance, carrier capacity or delivery timing

  2. 02

    Undeclared, prohibited or unsupported goods

  3. 03

    Insurance cover, office moving or specialist handling unless expressly scoped

05 / If it goes wrong

When the plan changes, ownership gets more explicit.

Open the four-level ladder
Signal
Survey facts, documents, carrier capacity, customs status or delivered condition diverges from the agreed plan.
First action
The move coordinator records the exception, protects the evidence and confirms the affected handoff and decision.
Escalation
Customs, carrier, loss or damage issues follow the named programme and insurance routes with responsibilities separated.
Record
The shipment status, exception evidence, decision, owner and delivery outcome remain in the move record.

06 / Answers

Settle the scope before the work begins.

01Do you move offices too?

Office-move requirements can be scoped, including inventory and equipment needs. Confirm the current capability, vendors and evidence requirements before engagement.

02What about valuable or specialist items?

Special-handling needs are reviewed item by item, including packing, carrier, insurance and provenance requirements. Capability is confirmed before the route is accepted.
