What differentiates one international mover from another?

Are all movers the same?

There are a lot of international movers claiming to be experts in our field.

What is the criteria to follow to ensure that you have selected a quality mover to handle your move to your new home in another country?

It starts with the packing and goes from there.

Look at the experience, quality control, and procedures of your mover when it comes to selecting the team that will pack and move the things that matter most in your life.

For example, at Taylor International, we are unique in that we have a full time quality control supervisor dedicated to the training and development of our workers, packers and van foreman. We have each new hire interviewed by one of our owners. They must also take a Personality Profile test to see if they have the right attitude for the job. We also require a complete criminal records check of all our van foremen. As we direct hire & train our staff rather than use casual labor, we know that the team who packs and moves your goods are professionally trained and are key to ensuring that all goes smoothly.

In our packing process, as an added precaution we use double ply bubble wrap to cover all furniture. This is an expensive material but it gives a higher than average level of protection and extra peace of mind to you about your goods protection.

Look at the company’s core strength.

Movers should have experience in moving and a specialization. For example, we are the only company in Southern Ontario dedicated 100 percent to household moves. We don’t service large office moves or move special products.

As a result of our specialization, we have become exceptionally good at international moving and have formed some priceless partnerships around the world. Such partnerships include access to the worlds most prestigious global moving network, FIDI. Membership to this network is based on quality and all members are audited to ensure that a high quality of service is maintained. Membership allows us to select the best possible agents to work with, no matter where you move is from or to.

Over time, we also have gathered highly experienced staff including our manager is Arthur Drewry whom has worked in, Europe, the Middle East and North America. With over 15 years of international moving experience, your international move will be in safe hands.

Look at commitment to quality in the long term.

We understand that attaining consistently high quality standards is a work in progress. We continually add new services and quality processes.
