Welcome to Pet Movers and Relocation Services

Pets cannot be moved with your household goods in the moving truck or van. Nor, except for seeing eye or guide dogs, are they allowed on trains or buses for travel purposes. That leaves pet owners with two options for moving their pets: your own personal vehicle or by airline transport, with the pet accompanying you or in an appropriate pet travel container travelling as air freight.

It’s important for pet owners to know that the Animal Welfare Act prohibits air travel of all puppies and kittens less than eight weeks old and prior to tehir weaning, whether they are accompanied or unaccompanied.

If your choose air freight for pet transport, you must also consider:

Decide whether to ship your pet before you leave your old home and have it cared for at the new destination until your arrival or;
Appoint someone reliable to take charge of watching and moving your pets at either origin or destination.
Be sure to discuss moving your pets with your relocation guide. Your moving guide can help select the best way to transfer your pet, offer helpful suggestions and assist with moving pets, or take care of, any necessary shipping arrangements for your animal transportation.

Your moving guide may also be able to recommend a qualified pet transport service that will take care of all the details of packing and shipping pets, including initial boarding, airport pickup and final delivery. Costs varied based on what type of moving services are rendered and how long the handlers have to manage your animal.

The key to an easier pet move, regardless of the mode of transportation used in moving, is in properly pre-planning the details of your move. Pet Travel arrangements should be made as early in advance of the target moving day as is practical, keeping your departure day tasks to a minimum. One designated person should assume responsibility for keeping the pet safe and secure.

Once you have made a choice for your pet’s mode of relocation and transport, you are ready to begin preparing your pet for their upcoming travel.
