Moving to Southampton from the U.S.

Shipping Your Household Goods

Even though it’s a major United Kingdom port city, not all containers vessels call Southampton port directly.

In the case that you are moving household goods to Southampton as part of your international relocation, do not be surprised if your shipment first gets routed to one of the following ports, and then delivered to your home.

• Thamesport
• Felixstowe
• Tilbury
• Liverpool
• London Terminal

If you’ve elected to use our consolidated shared containers, most are off loaded into a warehouse in or around London first.

From the unloading warehouse, your household goods will then be delivered by local delivery van to your new home.

The type of service really depends on whether or not you want to request to use local storage. However our friendly delivery crew will do all they can to make your experience a positive and stress free one.

Public Services

Finding the local town hall, police station or emergency center is relatively easy as they are close by and easily accessible via public transport.

Like any international move, those relocating from the U.S. to Southampton will probably find it beneficial to know where the establishments listed above are located.

We’ve listed them below:
