International Door-to-Door Moving Services with Universal Cargo

At Universal Cargo, we specialize in door-to-door international moves for household goods and personal belongings, to and from any point in the Republic of Argentina, with coverage in over 130 countries.

Your Initial Contact: The First Step to a Successful International Move

Moving to another country can be challenging, but with Universal Cargo, you are never alone.
From your first contact, we will assign you an international moving consultant who will guide you through every stage of the process and arrange an inspection.

Inspection and Move Planning

During the inspection (in-person or virtual), our consultant will evaluate:

  • Volume to be transported.
  • Type of packaging required.
  • Accessibility of your residence.
  • Customs requirements at origin and destination.
  • Items that cannot be included in an international move.
  • International insurance options.
  • Estimated dates for packing, shipping, customs clearance, and delivery.

Based on this information, we will send you a detailed proposal outlining costs, timelines, and the scope of our services.

Moving Day: Packing and Collection

Our teams follow FAIM international standards and use the highest quality packing materials, including:

  • Kraft paper.
  • Bubble wrap.
  • Corrugated cardboard.
  • Special boxes for clothing, dinnerware, and books.
  • Wooden crates for glass, marble, and mirrors.

During packing, a supervisor will document each item in an inventory and condition report, which you will sign.
Once packed, your belongings will be transported to our operations center, from where we will coordinate shipping to the port or airport of departure.
