OSS World Wide Movers

International moves from Australia

OSS World Wide Movers specialises in moving household belongings and business equipment between Australia and other countries. The company traces its operations to 1970 and describes a door-to-door service for overseas relocations. Its destination guides cover countries including New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States, Singapore, Japan and Germany. Each route brings different customs, quarantine and delivery requirements, which should be discussed while planning the move rather than after packing.

Packing, transport and storage

The service range includes professional packing, air and sea freight arrangements, overseas moving insurance and secure storage. OSS also lists specialist handling for pianos, fine art, wine, motorbikes, cars, pets and sports equipment. Not every item follows the same transport or import rules: an animal, vehicle or high-value artwork may need separate documentation and timing. An in-home moving consultant can assess volume and explain how the belongings will be packed and shipped.

Support through the relocation

In addition to physical transport, the company describes relocation assistance such as orientation, home search, school search and services for executives. It works with an international moving network and says its partners follow FIDI FAIM standards. The scope of each partner and service should be confirmed for the chosen destination. For a household move, it is useful to ask about customs paperwork, transit estimates, delivery access, insurance cover and what happens if storage is required before a new home is ready.

Australian offices and quote requests

OSS says it has customs and quarantine bonded warehouses and offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, with associates in other cities. Its website has an online quote form and publishes a national Australian phone number, 1300 790 622, plus city numbers. A detailed quote should specify the pickup location, destination, estimated shipment volume and any specialist items. The website also provides forms and country guides to help customers prepare for the documents and decisions involved in an international move.
