Car Relocation – What to Consider

1st February, 2019

Cars relocation is often the last thing that comes to mind when we think about moving. This is likely due to the fact that we see our car as being made for this sort of travel, and it doesn’t come up when we’re thinking about the packing process. However, you’re going to need a practical means of getting your vehicle to its new home, and this is easier said than done, especially with interstate and international moves.

At Kent Removals & Storage, we have been assisting families with professional car relocation services for both domestic and international moves for over 75 years. So, before you get ready to gear up and relocate your car, here’s a few things that you should consider.

Learning the Laws

As with any travel, if you’re moving your car internationally, there is going to be a strict list of local laws. Understanding and adhering to these laws is going to be a vital step in ensuring that your car gets to its destination, and laws will change depending on the country.

For example, Australia has a set of rules and restrictions, which boil down to receiving a Vehicle Import Approval. Australian laws for importing a vehicle internationally are quite complex, and working with a professional removalist is an excellent way to avoid unnecessary headaches.

At Kent Removals & Storage, we specialise in the relocation of cars, motorbikes, trailers, and even boats. We have the expertise and experience necessary to deliver to your exact requirements. That way, you can be sure that your vehicle is being handled with care throughout every stage of the car relocation process.

Is Driving the Best Option?

For short distances, the obvious choice is to simply drive your car to its destination. However, for longer distances, this method of car relocation definitely has its drawbacks. Often, the number of kilometers clocked and money spent on fuel make it a less-than-ideal arrangement. Plus, this can also add a large amount of time and stress to the already-stressful process of moving home. So, before you decide on a car relocation arrangement, it’s important to work out the logistics of your move ahead of time.
