I found Chipman International through online research. Sharon, our assigned coordinator, guided us through the best move of our experience. This was our 11th relocation but first international move as private individuals. It turned out we needed a lot of expert "hand-holding" to figure out special crating, customs forms and the local bureaucracy to get us to our new home in a Greek village with no street addresses. Sharon and her Athenian counterpart, Jenny of Orphee Beinglou Int'l, did a fantastic job. They were consistently courteous, patient, prompt and thorough in their responses and explanations. I'm certain we asked some of the same questions several times. The extremely careful packers at each end of the move were experts in their specialties. I was especially impressed that the delivery company sent a trained fine art handler along on the truck. Bottom line, I wholeheartedly endorse Chipman. read more

Chipman I. handled the American end of our move from Australia to California, as a preferred supplier of the University of California. We were extremely happy with the service they provided and also their choice of partner company in Australia. Everything was well-packed, nothing was damaged in transit and the Chipman staff here were very understanding when it came to arranging all the paperwork and an actual delivery date. Coming from overseas, we had to find a house and wait until the end of Escrow before we could take possession of our belongings. We also had little comprehension of what this process would involve. Sharon Takhar was extremely understanding and very helpful at all times. I can highly recommend this company for professionalism and peace-of-mind. read more

Chipman is GREAT! We've now used this local company to make major moves four times, the most recent from Oakland to Honolulu. This involved household goods and two cars. Laura Saldal has made the first easy, efficient, friendly and hitch-free. Rachelle Ocampo made the car moving as smooth as silk - everything arranged for us, at a great price, with total efficiency, simplicity and speed, and an organization that put them on the island exactly when we needed and wanted them. Thank you both, and all the packers and loaders, for an awesome move and as stress-free an experience as such a considerable understanding could ever be!! Everyone moving should make use of your experience and services!! read more

Chipman International were simply amazing! They made our move from Pakistan to DC (something we were really dreading!) super smooth. Sharon was always in touch with us and answered all our questions. We always felt like there was someone we could go to throughout the process. We were clearly informed about the shipment expected times and our things were delivered on time. The packing was amazing and nothing was damaged even though we have several delicate objects including guitars, crockery, glasses, mirrors etc. Both packing and unpacking teams in Pakistan and DC were very professional, fast and efficient. Highly recommend Chipman International for any move!! read more

Chipman was exceptional in helping me with my international move from New York to Asia. Given the challenging circumstances of the pandemic, it was impressive how fast Chipman put everything together from doing a virtual survey to packing up my things within a week. It was even more impressive as I was not even in New York while they did the move. i would especially like to commend Sharon Takhar, who was in charge of my move, and did everything possible to make it seamless and stress-free. Sharon was extremely responsive by phone and email and always did her utmost to help. Really appreciate the service and would definitely use this company again. read more

Chipman is AWESOME !!!! My move from Honolulu to Park City could not have gone smoother in regards to communication, packing and unpacking of items (oh and I didn't do either...their crews do all that) and the communication through the entire process is first rate customer service that every company should strive for. Laura Saldal is amazing. She took charge and left me without a card in the world regarding my household items coming across the pacific then in a truck without any damage or delay. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I would and will recommend to others Chipman for their relocation needs anytime. They all are amazing. read more

I used Chipman for my move from California to Germany. I am VERY pleased with the service they provided. Sharon,in the office, was a great communicator and always available if I had questions. The operations crew (Tony G. & crew), who did the packaging and container loading were great to work with. They were on time, they were considerate when I was fuzzy about certain pieces, they were efficient, and very pleasant. So the local (Alameda, CA) Chipman International team did a great job of making a stressful move less stressful. I totally recommend Chipman International in Alameda, CA!! read more

Moving overseas is never easy, but Chipman made the process quick, smooth and much less stressful! They were available to answer any questions we had in record time, and even helped guide us through aspects of the move that were unrelated to their services. It was so much easier for us to transport our entire lives with a professional partner in the process. Everything got to our final location much faster than we anticipated, as well, including the vehicles, which saved us a lot of money in rental costs. I highly recommend them for your overseas moving. read more

Sharon and her team are great in the service and responsive. Relocation from India to Seattle Packing and Loading by Contractors BR Shastry: There was an amazing guy who packed the things in such a way that it is 99% impossible to get the things break. He was super fast in packing and his skills are unmatchable. Impressed! Commute: It took longer than expected(~16-18 weeks) but acceptable due to COVID situation and lack of labor's. Unpacking and delivery: Three guys and all are good with the job they did. Super quick and managed. Regards Karmveer read more

Our goods and classic car were shipped from Europe to California in cooperation with Voerman moving company in the Netherlands and Chipman International in CA. All contacts with Chipman International were done by the same person (Sharon). All communication by phone and mail was thourough and very responsive towards our questions. Everything was delivered as promised. Also they took very good care of our classic car. Customs clearance was done and delivery at our house in CA, as agreed. I can really recomment Chipman International for your overseas move! read more

Moving overseas is not as easy as I thought. Many thanks to Chipman International made the process less stressful. Kudos to Rachelle O'Campo for being patient with us. After my husband breaking his shoulder, had to travel to Hawaii for his surgery. And having to deal with the arrangement of picking one of the cars​ in St Louis instead in Illinois. Rachelle was able to rearrange the pick up without any issues. The arrival and pick were on time and easy. Again, thank you for your assistance and our next step for moving would be less stressful read more

Sharon and her team at Chipman were great. They coordinated our overseas move brilliantly. Excellent communication throughout, sorted out all of the Customs issues, and the packing teams in both NZ and the US were amazing! Arrived right on time, extremely courteous, kept everything tidy, and even helped stage some of the furniture. They unpacked a full house move in under 3 hours. If you have to do an overseas move and don't want to do anything other than make a phone call, Chipman is the way to go! Fantastic! Highly recommend. read more

I recently moved to California from Germany and Chipman was hired by my organization to move my household. They had a partner company in Germany (Fermont) who packed and shipped all my apartment lugagge. The shipment basically reached USA in ten days and took another week to clear the port. I received my luggage with nothing broken and within a month. Entire process was very smooth and they had an excellent communication person. I have no complaints and I strongly recommend Chipman. read more

I recently moved to London and decided to ship over a few house hold items. Unfortunately I had to have everything sent back. Both Laura and Sharon were beyond helpful and patient. They were always there for me when I had a question and needed guidance. Patience, good prices and being flexible were all part of the experience. I have moved oversees several times and this has been by far the best moving company. I will certainly be calling them when I relocate yet again. read more

We moved from Utah to Hawaii and I was dreading the move big-time, but Chipman made it absolutely painless. From the second we found out we were moving, they took care of us with every detail and made the process super easy and not even miserable. We shipped two crates of our stuff plus our car, and everything got here exactly on time in perfect condition. They communicated with us the whole way and I would 100% recommend them to anyone! read more

Rachelle managed our international move from Thailand to Seattle during COVID. It wasn't an easy move, but she worked very hard and kept us informed the entire time. She was great and really helped us understand the process. The movers were super polite and made sure that all of our furniture and belongings were delivered, unpacked and put away. Thank you, Rachelle and team! read more

We used Chipman for our move to California from the UK. Everything was done with skill and with care. And when we needed some flexibility because our plans were inevitably somewhat vague, they were very accommodating and helpful about that too. Sharon always got right back to us with all of our many questions. They really get international moves, and they do it well. read more

Rachel has been a pleasure to work with. Moving can be really really stressful. She calmed my anxiety and did everything in her power to get my vehicle to be there when I arrived to Hawaii. She is helpful, tentative, and pays attention to details. Thanks Rachel for making this process a breeze your a special person who loves your job! read more

We used Chipman to move a container full of antiques and furniture from California to England. Sharon was amazing...she coordinated everything, and all went as planned, or even better! The packing team was also amazing...the movers themselves were very professional both in CA and in the UK. I would not hesitate to use them again! read more
