After your relocation consultant has put together a detailed inventory of your belongings and briefed one of our specially trained packing crews, we will arrive at your home at an agreed time to start packing. The packing crews are supervised by a crew foreman who has overall responsibility for the packing, loading, transportation and unloading of your belongings.

Packing standards: The critical element for a claim-free move is the export packing and loading
of your possessions. Our highly trained packing crews are among the best, and use only the
highest quality export packing materials. We can also provide special packing such as custom
crating of valuable items. Our superior export packing provides added protection to your
belongings and protects your shipment from the rigors of vibration, dust and humidity.

Protecting your home: Before the crew begins loading your goods into the shipping
container or vehicle, it is important that we prepare your home to avoid damage. Some
of the precautions we take include laying floor runners over carpets and entry points, as
well as covering walls, woodwork and banisters where appropriate.

Transport carrier: MERIDIAN WORLDWIDE’S vehicles and containers are specially
modified to accommodate the safe transportation of household goods. Special tracking
has been installed on walls for the purpose of securing goods and bulkheads are fitted to
prevent movement of the load if the vehicle / container is not full to capacity. After everything has been loaded, it’s a good idea for you and the van foreman to take one last walk through your house to make sure that nothing has been overlooked.
