Move to America – Moving Guide

Think of Overseas Moving as a great moving guide that’s here to help you plan financially, not forget anything and be informed when beginning a move to America. International moves like one to America can be tricky and there are lots of documents that need to be processed as soon as you’re done reading this. But before you rush off, take a look around our website to get a detailed idea about what choice is right for you, shipping to or moving companies.

Coming to America

Apart from being free to make everything as big as they want, America has a lot of restrictions when expats are involved. First, a move to America means your paper work must be filed and applied for before you book anything. Moving to is a wonderful experience, so get ready to begin the journey so few get the chance to take!

Differences and Similarities of America

Most expats when coming to America like to claim that everything is bigger, you might agree when you get there as well. However, there are many similarities between America and Australia. Calm coastal cities and surfing beaches are to the plenty along the American 12,000 acre coastlines. They may not be up to par with the golden sand and blue waters of Australia, but if in the need to catch a wave or see the water, it’ll do.

If you are moving with children it is also important that we mention school similarities. It is on a k-12 system a lot like Australia, university options can be local state and/or private institutions. The major difference for Australians in America is that they drive on the opposite side of the road. In America remember to stay on the right side of the road. This is vital when getting acclimated to your new home.

There also moving associations specific to Australia like AIMA that our movers are a part of. And don’t fall behind on football use the AFL to get all scores and info on your favorite teams.
