Let's Talk Shipping: Question of the day - "When should we send our shipment out ?"

As we promised before...from time to time we will post people's most asked questions and some other issues we find relevant for our clients. 


Question: When should we send our shipment out ?


Answer: To answer this question you basically need to ask yourself the following question: Do you prefer to be without your personal belongings longer in the USA prior to flying to Israel or in Israel upon arriving there. 


A complete Door to Door shipment usually will take between 4 - 5 weeks or as we say about a month (time frame from NY to Israel).


If you can be in the USA without your goods and still manage, then we will advise to send your shipment to Israel about 3 - 4 weeks prior to your departure. Once you arrive to Israel, within several days your shipment should be clearing customs and then can be delivered to your new place.


If you must have your goods with you until the "last minute", then we will send it out once you fly to Israel but you will be receiving it only about a month after your arrival. 


So as everything else basically...you call the shots... 8-)


NEXT: Storage...Do you need some...?
